Doing just fine Dee thanks. Softball and baseball seasons in full swing so plenty busy coaching kids, playing/coaching both a rec league here in Conway and also coaching a tournament team consisting of some of the best players in the city league from several teams to compete locally against kids from other cities on the weekends.
All games rained out today, looks to be some rough weather bearing down on us this afternoon my friend. Tornados possible all the way down in your neck of the woods looks like as well....
Ahh, spring in the South.
No opinion on paid bashers. Seems like a wives tale of the penny stock world IMO. However, I do know of some quite unscrupulous penny hedge fund managers who I suspect do not have the same burdens for shorting penny stocks as we do. Perhaps some are in their employ, who knows? Of course those are rumors as well. A 2.50/share margin requirement just makes it very impractical and risky once a security falls below a certain threshold for myself. I know nothing regarding the margin requirements of non-US investors/traders.
Critics are often lashed out at by staunch supporters of pump and dump attempts, naturally. They don't believe what they say IMO, it is all a big game to get a momo run going and cash in on some rubes who buy at the top, thinking that the mass claims of riches for all must have some substance behind it. Valid critique is sand in the gears of pump and dump attempts. Real investors honor and respect critique that is contrary to their beliefs, at least I do. One never knows everything and the collective can be quite useful in pointing out something one might have missed.
