You know there are. To be clear, if you don't do your own DD and you are using a board as your only source of info, my sympathy for your losses only goes as far as basal human empathy. I don't blame a poster for the actions of a trader. Each trade happens by the trader's trigger finger.

Now all that being said, the link between THIS SWA alert and KBLB directly has not been demonstrated to me, but the past relationship between Ben (and therefore KBLB) and these types is documented. That certainly opens the door to suspect that the SWA alert this week could have been paid for.

Again, I profess my ignorance to the legality but as far as I'm concerned, as long as Ben isn't telling them the news up front and only indicates that there will be a PR, I'm not too worried. In this case, the PR was effectively public information, at least to any that read this board. Ben is not restricted from PRing a PR, as silly as it may seem.

There's lots of great discussion on the board right now about a potentially self-imposed bottleneck on news. That's interesting. At the end of the day, for me, it's not something I'll trade on or panic about. I am fully aware that other people have different goals and trading strategies that make this information more or less pertinent. To them, I say have at it. What I don't enjoy is reading pure conjecture not grounded in evidence.

If one is worried, they should call Ben and ask if KBLB or his group paid for the pump. A vague answer or an affirmative answer would definitely give us something real to talk about. I just know I won't be emailing Ben on this matter because I just don't care.
