"the only thing the Yahoo threads are good for are "idiot sentiment"

Peter, actually not even that IMO. It is just too easy to form a new id, and to post any kind of opinion. There are bulls posting as if they were idiot bears, and vice versa, and every kind of variation in between. I long since gave up going to the Yahoo! threads. The only thing they are good for is flame wars, IMO.

BTW, I saw a rerun of Trading Places. It was only in yesterday's viewing that I realized that the heroes of the movie were short sellers, and the villains manipulative longs. I just wanted to share the warm fuzzy it gave me with everyone.
