Why Paid Bashing Doesn’t Exist

There are only two possible profit motives of “paid bashing”: to short a stock or buy it at a cheaper price. But either explanation falls flat. Only microcap stocks are small enough to conceivably be manipulated by an online message board. But it is virtually impossible to find a broker who will allow anyone to short a stock under $5. Not only is shorting penny stocks closely regulated, but it seems obvious that brokerages would quickly go bankrupt if they allowed the practice.

As for the idea that an investment company would need to manipulate message boards to buy penny stock shares at a cheaper price, well, I find it deeply unlikely. I’ve followed these accusations on stock message boards for more than a decade, and not one ounce of proof has ever been produced. It is clear that the burden of proof is to provide evidence that such operations do exist, since there is only evidence that they do not.

OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER and OVER....

I hear on message threads

DON'T LISTEN TO THEM, THEY ARE PAID BASHERS...

So I seem to have had this thought that, If.....IF there are really these paid bashers.....

WHo are they? Where do they go to get their pay cheques?

Better yet...

If, there are paid bashers...why is it, that the SEC has not found and exposed one?

Why is it that not one single Paid Basher has come out and exposed the organization?

SUrely with 28000 message boards on Silicon Investor, one of these paid bashers would have turned traitor and spoke to the WSJ or something?

I mean...where did they go for their interview?

How many hours do they work?

Do they get holidays? At cocktail parties, when asked what they do for a living what do they say?

So....

Mission of the thread...

Find one paid basher..With proof No area 51 crap. I want the smoking gun, man
