[what's up]

I don't work in the financial industry. Neither would I want to.

However, I have been investing for years and have been successful.

So now that you have attempted to set yourself up as some kind of all-knowing sage by parading your "credentials" to try to prove your superiority why not just admit that perhaps not all of the people who bought over the last couple of days were fools or "speculators?"

The Miriam-Webster definition does not prove your point. Sorry.

[politicket]

Those people that bought over the last few days and based their buying decision on the news from the Fed and Treasury were speculators - pure and simple.

It sounds like you were one of those speculators and are trying hard to justify yourself.
