They report bad news on the TV and the market goes up - they report good news and the market goes down.

I've never been able to get it.

Let's just look at Microsoft the COMPANY -- they just kill it in profit - sales - money in the bank... and Microsoft the STOCK goes nowhere for 10 years. Go figure.

Another money losing company has a decent quarter and the stock puts on $10 a share. Go figure.
