I think these are extremely useful corrections. Investors are really worried about an implosion and are basically scrambling to defuse the ticking bomb. If they'll show enough maturity and they'll be willing to let greed subside for a couple of years, maybe we'll end up having a better, more realistic, high-tech scene pretty soon without any bubble having to burst.

Or it won't be enough and they're all screwed nonetheless. Who knows!

If only there were a way to automatically mark down poorly performing companies based on incoming market data on a daily, nay!, hourly basis...

I don't think it could work. Computers with specifically designed algorithms and extremely fast connection could exploit such a real time market and outperform human traders. Nobody in his right mind would let that happen!

So true.

No, it's best to just stick to what we know.
