bones...for a person to come out and just say that 'hey, this is a good trade in the short term' regardless of the actual fundamentals (or lack thereof) is not a problem IMO.
At least the motives are honest and on the table for all to see. To lie about the company however and it's potential, while ignoring obvious pitfalls is not acceptable because it leads people astray and fuels legitimacy the company hardly deserves.
Bottom line is that people should do their DD regardless. Learn to read a financial statement and truthfully, people will make better choices and know when to hold em and fold em in this market. It's amazing how many people just don't understand how to read a filing or choose to read only what looks good to them while ignoring the rest. I believe this is the prime reason why so many lose money here.
