    Just read the above article about ""It was the brokerage houses that created a facade of legitimacy to manipulate the situation, and ultimately it was the little guy at home, not fully comprehending the process, who bought these stocks at an assuredly inflated value,"

    Why there are news coverage about analyst up/dn grade & opinions? Why don't they keep in house so they can not manupulate the public?

    How do we profit from our current environment?
