You missed one Lola. An Investor Relations that is fully accountable to the SEC and not a promoter. Investor Relations have duty to keep the facts straight and can't spin.

The problem the negatives have is they hate IRs. They do not want the public to even talk to an IR. They want the public to listen to them. Some IRs in order to combat the lies and falsehoods and cybersmears are beginning to post. Not that they have to or that they are paid to or anything but as a way to talk to the shareholders. Of course they are attacked by the negatives the basher.

I can make a case to counter your entire logic on promoters that get mad when they do not get stock. Your whole case is weak because of the other side of the coin that festers out of your logic.

SO please add IRs to your list of types.

Thanks

Yes, it does take awhile, but for the majority of the people who got sucked in by pumpers and dumpers and the rest of them, it is too late and there is no turning back. Their money is gone forever for some of them including their homes, wives etc. Guess I have compassion for them because of their ignorance. Look how dumb women were in the olden days the way they were treated. Do we pity them, or say TOUGH. Look who benefited really. The people who abused them. Why not say shame on the abusers, not the victims.

Lola, that's awfully Simplistic...

How do you define a stock Promoter, bearing in mind that anyone compensated to "promote" a security is bound to disclose compensation, according to SEC Rule 17(b)?...

How do you tell the difference between a long investor infatuated with a certain stock and defending a large position against Bashing Shorters AND a Promoter?...

I think you're really going to confuse the Newbies now... The best advice to them is:

Totally Ignore the Message Boards, Paper Trade long enough until you have a reasonable understanding of the Markets and ONLY invest what you can afford to Lose...

JMHO, F. Goelo + + +
