Yea this really pissed me off this morning when I looked at my stocks. These idiots, anything they say and people freak out and the stock drops. They didn’t even say Apple was going to do bad, just not as great as they expected. Apple is already outperforming the industry, just because they are going to grow by say 5% instead of 7% the stock plummets, Apple’s still climbing ffs, they make it as if Apple has hit rock bottom and is back to square one.

@Rick

That’s exactly what I find so damned annoying about them. It seems like they can say whatever they want with little to no research and have it affect the entire stock market. It’s actually kind of frightening when you think about it.

And yes…the iTabletron 2000 will save us all.

wait till the iTabletron 2000 comes out… the stock is going to soar.

Is it just me, or does it seam that “analysts” get to dictate the economy…? They can just make stuff up… If they said “Tomorrow we’re expecting a record fall in the DOW”
IT WOULD ACTUALLY HAPPEN… Just because they “predicted” it. When otherwise it wouldn’t have.

Analyst: “there is a slight breeze off the gulf coast today, gas prices are expected to reach an all-time high as a result.” [panic ensues]
