Dr Mr EQ,
Your reputation proceeds you LOL.
What i learned a long time ago, and any pro trader or investor will tell you if one is is hell bent on reading the boards( which all should be taken with a grain salt IMO,unless you can read thru all the dribble) is one should pay attention to the so called bashers before your decide to throw your money at a stock. ......Because if there is something wrong with it, they will tell the whole world about it LOL
Now the basher that is heavly shorted on the stock and has a habit of stretching the truth to make his or hers case is another matter or personal insults.
But if i do use the boards as a part of my DD process, the first place i look is what the bashers are saying.And then follow up on their claims,if i agree on what they are saying i avoid the stock or might short it myself. If not,and after some exclusive dd, i will buy and ignore what they say.And wait for a short squeez arooni LOL.Which the shorts always love LOL.... got squeezed a few times myself LOL.
Who says the bashers are bad guys? hell they have saved me alot of money... just have to pay attention and know what to look for,LOL
Once the Fed starts raising rates soon i look for the US Dollar to recover, as foreign investors start buying US debt. Will be looking for a TA reversal on the dollar and the shorts to cover... when this happens Gold should be a good short play.
As well as the Euro.
