I agree, but it shows the effects someone can have on the market. He really trashed them on his show after they dropped him and I'm sure much of this drop is due to dittoheads selling their stock. It is still a good company, though, might be a good time to buy now that it is artificially depressed.

It's not artificially depressed. Investor psyche, as a market force, is a very real factor in equity fluctuation. In fact, it may be the most important factor. I wouldn't say there is anything artificial about it. Having said that, it certainly may be a great time to buy it. I did.

Carbonite has other issues going on. It's never been profitable, for example.

Correct. They have been losing money for a long while now. Their own quarterly SEC filing speaks to this. They do not foresee any profitability in the near future. Their share price has been decreasing long before yesterday. That is precisely the point. A small, public company that has a recent history of no profitability and poor profitability outlook for the next 4 quarters or more. The very same company then pulls its sponsorship of THE number one radio slot in the nation. I don't know if they have ever tried to measure how many new customers that sponsorship has yielded over the years, but I would guess that the revenue stream generated from that audience may have been significant at the least. Ultimately, it should not be a mystery as to why the shares took a big index-exceeding dump. Struggling company is trying to expand capital but caps a stretch of continued loss by dumping its primary ad slot. I would have sold my shares if I had any. It seems justified. Some people here think that the selling-off of the shares, and the decrease in value, was a result of investors being upset that Carbonite dissed Rush, etc, etc. People that think this are...well...stupid. Like a couple of the above posters.

Sounds like the company was overpriced before. Probably because of the positive association with Rush. Advertising works.

It was a bad day on Wall St., but lets let them think that it was all because of Rush, instead of analyzing the price and volume charts.

Most of those companies will move their advertising dollars to other shows on Clear Channel and new advertisers will move into their Rush ad slots.
