The title of this thread is inspiring and coincidence.....a day passed hence one day less to sell................companies would do well if they prepared sandbags(share buyback) for example to stop the flood(price fall). Not that these sandbags could stop the flood but it is better than being caught unprepared.......

Thanks for the economist link! That's an interesting concept! On-line debate - cool!
Hey! Maybe we can try it in Valuebuddies? We choose a "hot" topic and invite debates for a fixed period - like 7 days? Then we do a poll at the end (May need to install a polling tool or gadget in Valuebuddies - not sure whether its possbile as I not IT savvy.
How's that for fun and generating alternative views? The purpose is not to "win"; but to encourage critical thinking.
Moderaters, what do you think?
This is a great idea. It might make the quality of the debate even stronger (it's very good already). Supportive.

Yes, "Rojak Investors" will definitely learn something from here. They may even contribute their 2 cents worth. Anyway, i always believe the more you are exposed to everyone's different thinking, the better final decision you will make. Good or bad , right or wrong, we all must be exposed. If not how can one compares or discerns what is actually good or bad for you may not be for somebody else. In other words, what is good for you may be bad for another person. So you learn you have to be accommodative if you want to keep the friendship. In the worst case your marriage and kin-ships. No?
In the same way, if this forum don't allow many different views (as long as not hurting or attacking somebody), why have a forum then? It will then be very boring.
