Frank,
I'm from Montreal, Canada, have absolutetly no clout in American politics. But someone on this thread had previously suggested getting politicians involved. May be time some American investors start picking up the phone...cause there is a lot of bullshit (forgive the language, frustration has the best of me now) going on on Wall Street.

Did you notice that comments from these analysts seem to be orchestrated.. One day one jerk says one thing, gets us idiots going one way, then two days later another jerkoff analyst says something else getting us to run the other way. (where the hell is the first jerk, why doesn't he rebuke comments made by second jerk??)

...furthermore, if you can get Congress to look into how many times your President got La#d , I'm sure you can get them to act on something that affects millions of Americans.

<<< Where are we supposed to invest?? Gillette or Coke?? All this manipulation is nothing but a conspiracy for the big boys to get the techs at the prices they want.>>>
Agreed: I see two options to deal with it
1. Refuse to sell and avoid situations like stop losses on keeper stocks in turbulent times( Thats most of the time). Buy on the dips.
2. Get enough experience in trading that one can smell the changes coming and try to beat 'them' to the punch. IMO Jim and Greg
have very good noses for that.
I am not considering going back to blue chips, but may put some money outside the techs, like Wmt, Hd, or Bby.
Why were the bears were over here messing around with Dell and
taking out their frustrations on rich Dell bulls, when they missed a golden opportunity to short cpq and earn money on their own.?

mr.morris...re the big boys...

not to worry if you buy and hold quality...the big boys can't match the index averages...look at the turn over ratio of most mutual funds...i'd rather be a "little boy", concentrate my portfolio on 4-5 issues and watch them grow...a core portfolio even for the novice investor should concentrate on msft,intc, dell, etc...expensive yes, but i'd rather own 10 shares of msft than 100 shares of global marine..if you have a low risk tolerance, buy and hold is the only strategy...loook at a chart of the dow since 1930...has it ever gone down and stayed there...look at dell...a thirty day chart is frightening...but expand your vision to a four year chart...makes one's nose bleed...when you're feeling this way...stay off of margin and order a pizza...an old italian adage...food heals that which hurts...

If it's a conspiracy in that the big boys are maniupulating to get prices where they want....then just be patient and buy more when they drive the price down.
