> Seeing you mentioned SPE in your message as being a rumour prone stock,  I
read an article in the Sunday Times on NZ Hi-tech in which they dogged  ITC,
SPE and Strathmore which as a result have all dropped considerably since the

obviously there is a large following that have acted on the article.  I
wonder weather it is the right thing for the paper to make statements like
this in an already depressed market and put the willies up investors?....
