Great post deal. Curious that some longs are keeping track of "basher posts" vs. "pumper posts." They cite an overwhelming majority of negative posts as a sign that CSHD is a great stock.

That is the most ridiculous statement I believe I have read in quite some time. I almost LOL'd off of my chair when I saw that post this morning.

HOW STOCKS GO UP: In my experience, the most important thing to understand is that the stock market is very much about public opinion. Great fundamentals will not cause a stock to go up. People have to WANT TO BUY IT.

The market is very much like the advertising business. If there is a steakhouse in town, and most people say they have terrible food - no one will go there, even if they have the best steaks in the world.

So longs, please be careful here. Even if Rufus is sitting on a pile of bonds and contracts - it is the overwhelmingly negative opinion of CSHD that may prevent it from achieving its true value.

Sad, but true. But it makes finding a gainer a lot easier, knowing that it's mostly about public opinion. Fundamentals mean little when compared to huge "curb appeal."


Good stocks are obvious. Extensive DD is how you convince yourself to buy a bad one.
