This is an excerpt from an article written about the recent surge in marijuana stocks. I didn't take the advice and made more in a month than I did in all of last year's trades combined. We'll see how the marijuana sector plays out. As for Omagine...why no interest from the Big Dogs? And why so little volume? Any ideas?

An Illustration of a Market

Imagine that you are in the market for a car, and you decide to go to the largest auto auction in the world. There are many people there just like you, plus professionals who are experts in the industry. There is also every type and style of car imaginable. In one area, there are some models that you are interested in, perhaps because of style or fashion, and the prices are awesome. A couple hundred for this one, a bit more for another, but for the most part, they're cheap as can be, and you are sure that one of these is the car for you. Oh how far it will take you! And you're not the only one. There's a bunch of people just as excited as you are; a real race car for some, a dream car for others, the opportunity still others have been waiting for.

Now, as you are standing there, pro after pro comes strolling by. These are the big dogs, the fat cats, the connected, in the know buyers; and like it or not, they make their living off this stuff. Some of them have teams with them, and one after another they go over these cars; getting under the hood, checking out the pieces parts, rolling a crawler underneath to check them out. And you notice, one after another, they turn and walk away. Not a single one of them buys or even makes a bid on one of these cars. Do you think it's a good idea to buy if they're not? Do you think that you are smarter than these pros? Do you really think that your expectations are going to be met?
