Yes, but the ces provides speculative fodder which can be embellished and sculpted by touts and others to scam the unknowing and less than intelligent gamblers that hover around the message boards and news wires. I know its not just edig, its all over the tech market. During the ces 2002 I told a poster on rb that I was going to sell a thousand shares at 1.25 for some extra vacation money. I was berated by some of the scumbags on that board to a point that I decided to sell a bunch more. I'm glad I did.
