Lesson 1 "BASHERS NEVER Bash A BAD STOCK"is just plain bull.
That's just wishful, die-hard long kind of thinking. I've follwed many stock message boards over the years and I have seen stocks fail, fail miserably, and they had many bashers posting against them. They also had pumpers and people thinking they would get rich on the stock. Simply put, bashers are right sometimes and many stocks (arguably most stocks) with great potential turn out to be turds.
You know, this whole "true longs" against the bashers thing is way old, IMO. These boards are just a good place to talk about a stock and the bashers are just anti-social or just selfish and greedy and that's about it. No investor of any consequence puts their money into a stock based on whether or not he thinks the true longs presented a better argument than the bashers! LOL
And... the small amount of shares from novice, newbie investors who would actually be swayed by anonymous name-callers who are sometimes just high school kids, will make no difference in the stock price either way.
Bashers vs longs/pumpers on message boards...what a joke.
