This post and the one just after it tell you a lot about the state of the tulip market. The retail buyers are unlikely to give up until the dips are 40 - 50% instead of 10% pullback "buying opportunities".

People keep asking how high is high with this net stocks mania...
Keep in mind that a single Tulip Bulb was garnering $3000 dollars at the end. Three thousand...

Does anyone remember the story of the guy who had taken all his assets and bought a tulip bulb only to have someone come over and eat it on his salad?

It's only funny if it isn't you.

Wish I could jump in and catch some dollars when the house of cards falls.... but can't tell where it will end.
Good luck y'all.
