reference request. I'm fairly new at paying this close attention to the markets and I was wondering if there was a time you recall seeing such blatant hype and manipulation of the markets.
The real question behind all of this is...what are the big dogs trying to accomplish with all of this. They're going beyond investing to make earnings. No one has addressed this scenario.

Late 90's were almost all hype. You heard it all -- earnings don't matter, it's eyeballs that count. Things are different this time. There has been a repeal of the economic cycle.
I would guess that the end game is to buy time until we can grab Saddam's oil and gold so that there will be some real physical assets to hold up the mountain of paper promises that is getting ready to fall over and crash.

a time you recall seeing such blatant hype and manipulation of the markets. I forgot to mention one of my all time favorate pieces of Wall Street advice -- "It really isn't a loss until you sell".
