where are you, when MSFT moved from 150 to 175.
Hey, He has been badmouthing softy for a year now, while it has moved up 81%. At least he is more articulate than the thread moron on Cisco

My sentiment is the same. Since late last year, I have not bothered to waste time to open posts from certain posters who were so negatively bias against MSFT regardless. Some of these people don't have MSFT shares but have shares of MSFT rivals and try to talk down this stock. MSFT longs have made too much money on this stock to believe some of those nonsense. IMHO. Sam.

Jim, very good analysis. I also notice that the number of Bull postings also slows down as the price contines to drop. So you have pointed out a very common trend in the SI and other investment boards.

I also notice that instead of the Bull's taking the negative news as a point of valued input - their only reaction (ONLY cannot be over-emphasized) is to slam discredit and take personal shots at the poster.

So your point bing what?

Toy

<<Where are you, when MSFT moved from 150 to 175.>>

FYI, if you go back to around 9/29 on this thread you'll find a brief, yet informative, discussion I had with Toy. I was amused by his persistently spinning web of doom and asked if he was short MSFT.

I don't recall he responded to that question, but I went ahead against his opinion and added MSFT that very day at 102.

When MSFT inevitably regains it's momentum Toy disappears... Funny that. But why would Toy spend so much time posting these lengthy posts? Fear. Fear of being wrong.
