Doesn’t it make you question! WHAT IS GOING ON??

We might have the answer. Is this another trick for big market makers and hedge fund analysts to instill fear in common man’s mind so as to make them panick sell and bring down the market price of otherwise lucrative shares. Look at few previous examples of the companies which reported their 2010 Q1 earnings. Yahoo is trading below 15% mark following its earnings announcement.
