Larry it doesn't help when every day another stock scandel comes out. The markets will need a few years to clean it's scum out. I got burned myself for a years pay and all the ratings were "strong buy" and the stock went from 90 plus to under 8 dollars today. We keep allowing companies to lie about future and even now past earnings so there is no wonder stocks are tanking !

Nasdaq is riddled with fraud and tech is where most of the fraud is !
