HG, as you are Impristine's girl, I shall tread lightly. There are some very smart people posting on that thread (myself excepted) and more so than most SI threads and much more so than any other open online forum, they are worth reading.

It is not a bear thread, merely a discussion forum about the inevitable. Like the railroads in the 1880's, Radio stocks in the in 1920's, uranium stocks in the 50's and conglomerates in the 60's there will be a reality check. IF you want a bear thread, step into my lair:#Subject-19673

Happy Girl...

The bulls are clearly winning :)

Their strategy is time proven (over 2 years now)

Put out the bait (i.e. fill wires with doom and gloom...some of these articles basically all but say to sell your shares now...its ridiculous!)

The price gets talked down, short interest rises (again) then WWHHAAMM!! in pours the money...and the silly bears....well...they just don't learn.

I am not so sure we will get the little dip on Monday at this point. AOL is going to be in a frenzy of buying...lots of funds have yet to participate in the index buying. This may very well spill across the sector and push everything up.

Aside from this, the very fact that I am hoping for a dip will certainly ensure that it wont happen :)

I agree. Someone needs to counteract all this doom and gloom. What most of these people seem to be forgetting is that if some of their scenarios happen (California earthquake, terrorist attack), we will
have worse problems than a correction on Internet stocks.
