The merchandising of paper requires having paper to merchandise. Sharp fast moves is one way it's done. News is orchestration and eventually, PUNKtuation.

Ask Doyle (what a name) about his fabulous Countrywide Financial short. Maybe he can quantify his risk/reward ratio. I luv sophomoric logic. Mean's "things" are goin' as planned.
Office depot, best buy, circuit city, wallmart, target, sears, etc all all crap.Stay away from crappy big store stocks. Nowadays people buy stuff online. Big stores are so 90's.
