ctb... I agree, that the bashing has a negative effect here. But you have the concept of actio = reactio the wrong way!
First is the action (= effectiveness or ineffectiveness of the management), then follows the reaction (= bashing or hyping).
If, like in this case, bashing can have a negative effect to the sp, then the management did something wrong. Try to bash a good company with good revenue and a good management. You will see that in that case bashing will have no effect to the sp.
Never does bashing make a good company bad or hyping a bad company good. Bashing can only affect the sp of a company, when the company is weak and management is poor!
Second, we as shareholders, should only be interested in the sp, because we are here to make money and nothing else. If the sp is low, is doesn't matter, if bashing is in play or not. It does only matter that in this case management does something wrong for us shareholders.
