"The MM's always get cover from the spam sites and probably underwrite them to some degree so the press has been good/ bad at the right times." Ya think?
Many of the SA's and MF's of the world are underwritten by MM's and other more powerful Wall Street forces to a great degree!
The stock market has become more and more the playground for scam artists, all the way up from the little poster to Goldman Sachs!
I do get a kick out of the amount of analysis and due diligence done by investors - you can watch a stock trade for a period of time and the feel you get might be just as valuable as the information gleaned from research. Blasphemy, for sure!!!
