Greedy, positive news is released to sell everything. Lexus advertises positive commercials to sell cars. Ironically the result of increased car sales leads to increased PPS. The economy of America is a market based economy where the more you sell of your stuff the more valuable your stuff becomes. Let's take this for example, Acenture used Tiger Woods to increase their exposure to the world because Tiger was positive, now he is not positive and and Acenture dropped him like a hot potatoe. So yes Greedy positive news is most likely released to sell more of something.
Let's take sheep farming, if I wanted to raise sheep, "I wouldn't really raise sheep" and I wanted to be the biggest sheep farmer in America I would go public. I would issue stocks and most likely start my company on pinksheet. Now I would need to find everyone I could to buy my stocks so I could buy more sheep so I would release all this positive information like how my sheep are better than anyone elses sheep and my sheep had more wool and I was the best sheep shearer in the world. Now who could refute that my sheep were not better than anyone elses, but I'm sure someone would get on some board somewhere saying that my sheep were the worst and if anyone bought my stock they would be sorry because I didn't really have a sheep farm in Central Park NY and everything I said was a lie, but truely that would be a lie because how would they really know about my sheep unless they came and check out my sheep. So wouldn't it be misleading for them to spread bad words about my sheep unless they came and ran their fingers thru my fleece, so wouldn't they really be lying!!!!
