The spam stock and trade.

Does anyone really believe they can drive a stock up with spam? I just glanced in my spam folder and along with all the pills for this and that there are at least a third of the things wanting to give me a secret tip on a stock. It's usually a company I've never heard of. Yeah I wonder when the day will come when I get that stock tip that was "accidentally" sent my way for like at&t or p&g (do mega corps often get the ampersand?)

It's always some obscure "communications" company that is about to make it so that cell phone users can actually send megabytes of data right out of their asses even riding commuter trains while reciting the alphabet backwards skipping all the vowels while giving the US Sign language equivalent for each letter as they go by. I'm mean really who's gonna pay for that.

They also try to make it seem like insider info. You know material information about the company which is illegal. Just ask Martha (who I hear only uses pencil now). I'd like the SEC to track some of these fuckers down. Just sample the spam. If you SEC folks aren't getting any of this spam I'm sure I can send some your way along with some ads for 581 pills. Then check the dates and see who bought a shit ton of the stock right before the spam went out. Isn't it illegal to misrepresent a stock in the media after you've bought some of it?

I'm so glad the filter works. Or does it? I mean I did go in and read it, didn't I? Shit! I am an idiot. Oh this stock looks good, I'm sure people will want a non dairy toilet seat cleaner in a disposable tin. I wonder if I can get options on that...
