Nope, they both matter. I posted that link the first time because that was the latest report I was aware of at the time. Either way, a smart investor doesn't overreact to ebbs and flows and makes sound decisions based on what he or she knows of the market. Oh sorry, that's just my opinion.

Got any other strawman arguments for me?

Yes... sure that is the reason no one look at car reviews before buying or look which is the best version of multiplats, people buy things on random.

What the hell does buying a vehicle have to do with buying a gaming console? Furthermore, where in my last post did you see anything about people purchasing machines at random that cost hundreds of dollars?

Thank you for helping my comprehension skills and cooping with it.

We obviously still have a lot more work to do. That's not my opinion; that's a fact.

 

EDIT: Sorry, got distracted earlier and forgot to include something. I was originally going to ask if you've ever heard the term in Business 101, "Buy low, sell high"? That's the relevance between stock rising and falling.

Ok, whatever... keep talking to others like they are imbecile. You certainly won the argument.

But I'm only talking to you in the same manner you've spoken to me. Those with glass jaws shouldn't throw punches.

But since you got me here, I was thinking more about your wacky comparison of consoles to cars last night:

Yes... sure that is the reason no one look at car reviews before buying or look which is the best version of multiplats, people buy things on random.

I think I finally got what you were trying to get across. Think about it: how do the vast majority of people buy cars? Do they buy cars based on things like top speed and engine horsepower? No, most people buy cars based on price, fuel economy, and purpose (minivan for families, small economical car for a college student, etc.). They couldn't give two shits about how fast a $100,000 Ferrari can get. They need to know how much mileage they can squeeze out of a Prius between fill-ups compared to that used Toyota. The Ferrari crowd does exist, otherwise the Ferrari wouldn't exist, but unless you live in Beverly Hills, how many Ferraris do you see on the street on a normal day? That crowd is pretty niche.

Consoles are the same way. The majority of people buying them aren't doing so based on pure horsepower. Up until the PS4, which is the market leader for completely different reasons that I know you have read already because you seem wont to hang off my nutsack lately, the strongest console of a generation has never been the best seller.

Hey Don, thanks for helping me out with a great example! I don't care what anybody else says, you're a cool cat.
