English term

Ebay separated itself from a bunch of nags

English to Portuguese Other Business/Commerce (general)
In this case the real information - that Ebay was an 800 pound gorilla (or flea) - fit the chart perfectly. So Ebay separated itself from a bunch of nags to run long and hard. Handicappers know to always keep an eye on winning jockeys: Whitman. Ellison at Oracle. Moore at Intel. Gates at Microsoft. Jobs at Apple (and Pixar and NEXT and etc., etc., etc...). In 2005 what's to be done with Ebay? Draw a trendline, raise your stops and sell it if it reverses.
