I'd like to believe I am a man of intergrity, but heck, I'll sit and answer the phone and tell people that I would like to believe the 10K will be good. LOL.
One time I called the public relations director for a stock, asking why the stock was halted. He said they were releasing a PR and the stock was halted until the PR could be absorbed. I said is it good news and he said, "I think you will like it."
Guess what the PR was? They missed a filing deadline and had to trade with the dreaded "e" at the end of the ticker. Needless to say, that was the end of that stock.
What was that guy smoking to say he thought I would like the news that they were releasing?
