While I take my Christian faith very seriously that's not the reason...maybe a smidgen, but not much. VUZI isn't the first stock that's attracted my attention, there have been tons of others over the years. Way back it was a now defunct company called Adzone Research....a complete and total pump and dump that got hyped up from a dime to over $2 bucks...and I was asked the same questions back then. Why so much time and energy?
The best I can explain it is by comparing it to nerdlinger forums where people argue over who the best starship captain was in Star Trek..Kirk, Picard or Janeway. Passionate arguments are made like crazy over an inconsequential issue where there's $0 at stake. Why? Its called "ego engagement"....a desire to be proven or seen as right. At least with a stock like VUZI, if they keep over promising and underdelivering by posting loss after loss after loss...there's something of a score card.
For some though...bottom line results mean nothing, all they care about is pumping up the PPS by attempting to drive interest to a stock. And VUZI is perfect for this because they've always got something cooking in the future...in years past it was DARPA and SAP, now DHL and the wounded warrior program.
Meh....
And realize that a lot of investors are conspiracy buffs, they see a guy like me going OCD because he enjoys the sword play and debate, and they figure there must be nefarious forces at work trying to pry their precious shares free....that's not the case, but if it was nobody would ever admit it so it feeds on itself.
Back in September I did take out a position on the short side, but that has long since closed....If I was a manipulative type I probably should join in with all the bullish pumping in hopes of getting the PPS even more inflated than it already is for another play on the short side...
I might take out another bearish position, but I won't play that game...I'll continue expressing my honest opinions.
If you want to taste the fruit, you have to go out on a limb. But if you wait for the herd to move out on the limb....the branch tends to snap.
