Sorry Carol:
Whoever would sell their position because of a tip on a message board without checking out the validity of the story is clueless. United did have a crazy roller coaster ride today but I find it really hard to believe it was because of a post on a message board. By the end of the day the stock rallied and only ended down 11% which is still quite a bit but was a huge rise from the drop it experienced earlier.
I do agree that people should try to post accurate stuff but to sway a huge corporation stock valuation because of some loon on a message board is a bit hard to believe.
Do you have a link to any news story to substantiate your claim?
Respectfully,
Andrew
