ahhaha,

About the "buzz ratio" -- that makes perfect sense to me. How hard would it be to model the influence that SI (or perhaps the Yahoo Message Boards) has on certain stocks? Obviously certain variables such as float, number of posts, % of posters who are buy-and-hold, % of posters who are traders, etc. would influence each stock differently. I'm guessing that the higher the P/E (or absence of earnings), the more validity a buzz ratio would have. For BB stocks I'd bet a buzz ratio might be essential.

I think I'll play with this one and see what I turn up...
