No they do not believe the sub numbers either, which is why AOL continues to miss lofty advertizing revenue targets. Furthermore, the MBA's, CEO's are not stupid, just dishonest. If Boroslob of TALK can get his stock price up by making a deal with AOL, he will. With this beautiful new options game that corporate execs have created for themselves, they are incentivized to lie cheat in steal. In the meantime, Boroslob sees the writing on the wall and is trying to sell the company, but cannot find anyone stupid enough to buy it at these prices. Ditto on Wall Street analysts. They play the game because they have been benefiting more than anyone from the hype of this "bull" market. Dumb? Not! Greedy and dishonest? Quite! Alright, here we go again. Now your accusing everyone involved with AOL to be dishonest, idiots, and all around fools. I love this. You see, most bears always talk about this Wall Street game. Talking about hype. Enjoy the whole new word ANALysts too. What confuses me is that, if you or other bears know the game so well, why aren't you making money on this stock?! If you know that analysts, CEO's, whoever are gonna ride this stock to the moon, why jump in front of it? Why not make money instead? The momo boys always think they are smart enough to jump off the moving train in time. They never have been in the past, and they won't be this time and I venture to say that either will you. Yeah, and the shorts don't know that they've been run over by one...several times. Hell, they don't even know to move out of the way! You wanna talk momo, talk about trying to time the downturns. LOL. You honestly believe that momo investing is any worse then shorting a stock? The inherent risks involved? Do a quick analysis and see who has made more money on this stock, the shorts or the longs. S.
