Nice post Dennis. If anyone thinks this board is anything other than moderate, please visit any board at RB. We have great balance here. Except for the one comment by BC, who did apologize, there has been no name calling.
Words like "basher" and "rose colored glasses" are not meant to be insults, but are just to indicate positions on the stock sentiment spectrum.
From negative to positive we have...
Basher
Cynic
Contrariant
Realist -
Moderate
Realist +
Compatible
Rose Color Glass Wear-ers
Pumper/Hypster
... or something similar.
Politics have their own spectrum, why not investors.
I don't think anyone should be insulted by being given a level in the spectrum.
I guess we could come up with better, less labeling terms like:
Basher = Ted Kennedy
Cynic = Poor Democrat
Contrariant = Democrat
Realist - = Rich Democrats who want to be Republicans
Moderate = Does not exist
Realist + = Poor Republicans who want to be Democrats
Compatible = Republican
Rose Color Glass Wear-ers = Rich Republicans
Pumper/Hypster = Bill O'Rielly
Of course, this list won't do because as soon as the word "basher" comes up several people will start drinking heavily and kill a family member.
How about a scale of 1-10? 10 being a Pumper, and 1 being a Basher. Lets try it.
KP! I disagree cause you are a "3"! Hmmm, less satisfaction, but safe. I like it.
