Skeets, it is just situations like upgrades, en masse, just before the bottom falls out of earnings, that makes me so critical of analysts. It is not that some don't do their jobs. That is true of any profession. It is the fact that "same think" and being wrong is so much safer and career-enhancing than originality and the possibility of being wrong. Wanta bet that nobody is fired over this one? Yet, the Janney analyst who predicted that Trump would go bankrupt, and was right, was fired immediately. <G> MB
