Just running through the P&D flavors of last week, and spotted what has got to be one of the more spectacular hype jobs of recent times.

BICO - I mean, we're talking a float of 181M shares, with losses of .27/share. And somebody came along and hyped that dog to an 800% gain. I know there's a sucker born every minute, but this is ridiculous.

I'm sure there are are a few people out there that think whoever it was could use a big hug of the shoot 1st variety, but I think a con on that scale has a certain style.

Would welcome any insight into the psychology of those who bought into the top of that one. They were expecting news, maybe?
