Well, I never heard of him before but that does not make him a bad kid or whatever. I have a problem with CNBC making it a big deal. It's absolutely asinine to suggest that people are trading based on the reco's of a kid. If that were so, then the market is shot to sh*t. The entire concept is patently absurd. Think about it.....do you know that if there was a real bear market that people with responsibility have to suffer the consequences? That is, if a 15 year old male told me to buy XYZZ stock and it went under then it will not be he that has to forage for food for my family. He will not get hurt at all. He is in a no-lose situation. He blows up, no problem. I blow up, then I'm poor. Life is different when there is no parachute to grasp. Lost 7 bucks on the card game.
