As I have said a thousand times, no manipulation can put stocks down and keep them down. — Edwin Lefèvre

The speculators deadly enemies are: Ignorance, greed, fear and hope. All the statute books in the world and all the rules of all the Exchanges on earth cannot eliminate these from the human animal.

When the man who ought to want a stock doesn't want it, why should I want it?

The big money in booms is always made first by the public - on paper.

And it remains on paper.
