I hate to think that anyone would spend so much time following a company unless they had a financial commitment of one form or another. Long, short, option etc. In lieu of that one can only speculate on why mas is so obsessed. I can get really obsessed when my $s are in play but he has no investment, at least not in the monetary sense. What makes a person spend so many hours a day obsessed over something when they don't stand to gain or lose anything of value?
