It certainly hasn't stopped them so far. You're assuming rational behaviour on their part, and if the past 10 years have taught us anything, it's that people (and anything made up of people, including markets, corporations and governments) don't necessarily behave in a rational manner. To the contrary, they might also be clinging tenaciously to that faint hope that if they hold on just that little bit longer, put in just that little bit more money, they'll ultimately succeed and then be rolling in money and banging sexy women and generally livin' la vida loca. Kind of like buying that one extra lottery ticket, or clinging desperately to your shares of AwesomeCo as the market is tanking.

Why stop now?
