There are 3 ways to make money on falling stocks: 1. Foresight: Hedge (sell short, buy puts, write calls) and hope stock prices go down. Making an honest buck. 2. Intervention: Hedge and then spread disinformation to make prices go down. Robbery--Must be discrete. 3. Hindsight. Wait for stocks to drop, then sue the companies. Organized crime--Blatent extortion but untouchable. I'm a BAY/NT employee/shareholder. If I was wronged by NT, then why am I getting the punishment? Just my 2 cents. -jay
