Food for thought, I enjoyed reading that, Stan. By the way, Smart Investor, I never said I bought YHOO back nor do I have the cahones to buy again. I also wouldn't short it because...as a wise man once told me...it's a bull market. Don't short sh!t in a bull market, that's all I can say.

Well said....especially the bit <<< People buying the stock now may actually make a lot of money. They will also be exhibiting advanced mental disease. Such people rarely sell in time.>>> Of course the people who continue to short it despite looking at the trend are perfectly sane...! Maybe everyone should do this...short stocks when they are going up. Its the right thing to do ! From the sidelines it looks so easy - doesn't it ? One can afford to be judgemental and principled. But then, of course its never easy seeing someone make so much wealth... Stocks are not traded on principles. Stocks are traded for financial prosperity. And the people who are most successful are the ones who have the courage of their convictions. People who put their money where their mouth is. Imagine if Bill gates had stayed to complete his Harvard degree !
