The Question and Answer Board

[Was (Bob)]

Janice Shell just saved me a loss on a stock because I appreciate her views

If I had a dollar for every email I got that said "She may not be well-loved, but she sure saved my derriere on this one.", I'd have a lot of dollars.

For some reason many OTCBBs are young new invetsors and pump their invetsments and will not allow another point of view.

Agreed. Not all, but many.

Let me continue to play devil's advocate on this by posing the following questions:

1. Dismissing one side of the coin by never letting yourself see it (as many would do in a bull/bear segregation) is one of the most self-destructive things one can do. Agreed?

2. Postiing excessively positively or negatively in a venue where you know most of the readers aren't seeing "the other side" can be a pretty good way to make a lot of coin by not having your position directly challenged. Agreed?

If so, do I force bulls and bears to co-mingle for each other's sake and for the sake of inexperienced investors or do I stand by and let people destroy themselves because it's their decision to do so and not my call.

It's not a rhetorical question. Protection and help of inexperienced investors is important to me but very arguably it's also none of my business since my job (for purposes of this discussion) is strictly administrative.
