Whoa! Slingfest City in Chemville...what else is new?
Wall, the board appreciates your efforts with the EC and your contributions to the board prior to the alliance. I always liked your shoot from the hip banter. However, you veer into the caustic realm at times. Your attack on HFields (all we need is a machete and blood splattered walls to set the tone) was uncalled for.
Charts do have their place and trust me (ask your Tute buddies that have been calling you), all those brokerage houses use algorithmic trading .Every place I worked at had their black box system ready to sell at breached support “chart” levels and ready to spit out an avalanche of trades at warp speed based on programmed variables).Fundamentals are king, but that doesn’t necessarily make charts a lowly chessboard pawn.
I didn’t participate in the alliance. I had my reservations about Cemjq due to the lack of an asset sale, so amended my exit strategy (we all have our own risk tolerances…to each his own). However, then players like SVP came on to the scene and bolstered Cemjq’s chances. The participation of funds and Tutes in Chemtura is a seismic vote of confidence.
Wall, kudos to you, Jax et al. for mobilizing the EC effort. However, you didn’t do it to bolster HFields, RJ’s or anyone else’s portfolio…you did it to bolster your own. Lets not play overplay the Martyr card. Wall, deleting charts pertaining to Chemtura is out of bounds. I do appreciate Hfields charts and there are many on this board and other boards who do. There are those that contribute DD and those that contribute charts on each board...both are valuable contributions.
Wall, divulging personal information (alluding to HFields # of shares) was way out of bounds. HFields contributed to the formation of the EC (to help his own bottom line and yours in the process) and you repay him by betraying his confidence. I’m so glad that I didn’t participate in the alliance for this reason alone. I did my own behind the scenes foot work by writing to the Trustee and contacting Mr. J (won’t divulge his full name to the board...may not be appropriate to do so) at the SEC.
Wallstreet, anyone reading your post betraying HFields’ confidence would be wary in the future to supply personal information to a public board to form an EC. People value their privacy (some more than others) and do not want their personal information strewn all over a public message board. You did a service to Chemtura shareholders mobilizing the EC, but you did a disservice to them betraying their trust.
I don’t know why people got so rattled with the recent drop...it’s par for the course in Chemville! The manipulation of this stock is blatant (that nosedive to the 40’s was akin to a DNDN move).
Anyway, good luck to all you Chemtura Longs and keep it civil, otherwise I’ll sic Arnold on the board:)
