I can't believe you guys are speculating on market reaction. First of all there are too many variables to state that this is related to people leaving the game. Investors don't care and don't read forums or sites like this for financial advice. Second the whole damn market is in a slump. If you would take your head out of your arse you would see that teh market is switching to commodities because stocks are flopping all around.
If you really want a good reason to blame for these stock dips you might want to look at rising energy costs, concerns over disposable income in the US, and investors not wanting to take risks on brands that aren't well known in the market.
Usually i like this site but this shite reporting has got to go.
