Spokes-lots of people have sold due to "basher" posts, particularly when the post consists of documented information that blows company claims out of the water.
I and Our-Street uncovered and documented grossly false claims that Calypte was making about sales (fake purchase order) WHO approval (there was none), and a massive deep discount CD issued by a Russian Mafia figure. The stock tanked from almost two dollars to under a buck within three days of the publication of the information.
It now languishes at around thirty cents on no significant volume.
There are no stupid questions. But damn, there are a lot of stupid questioners!
