GOOD MORNING NVEI INVESTOR
Chrome,regarding your statement,"Maybe you should ask everyone that question? Seems to me that there are a lot more "pumpers" than "bashers" on this board."

This is an investors board. Being an investor in a company should mean that overall you like the company in the main part. It might be the profit potential, the product, the management, the tech, or even the movie, but overall if you invest in a company the primary feeling should be positive. There have to be questions, disagreements, disappointments from time to time, however, If you invest in a company you should like the company Appparently, in your opinion feeling positive makes you a pumper. My question would be, other than trying to find out about a company in the course of DD why else would a reasonable person be here. After a short period of time of doing DD a person should buy in, move on, or continue to watch. After this short period of DD time if a person doesn't feel positive about a company his time is better spent elsewhere. So, we come back to the questions, what is the deal with long term bashing? Why are there bashers on a board at all? What does it profit a person to spend so much time over a period of months, or even years telling everyone that will listen how bad something is?

Your question about why there are more pumpers than bashers on a board just smacks wrong thinking. For bashing to be profitable there has to be short selling. For bashing to be rewarding otherwise there has to be mental illness, jealousy, revenge, fear of competition or elimination of you as a competitor. I just don't believe there is widespread belief that saviors must perservere to save the world from risky investments as a reason to devote your life to bashing a company.

I hope that answered your question.
Have a nice day, Ernie
