A basher is anyone that says something negative about a stock that I own. :-)
jk! What I was referring to is a person that is dedicated to bashing, and never seems to take the long position in any stock. You know, the person we swear must be shorting from an offshore account. They move from equity to equity bashing each of them along the way.
I think I get the picture. What I ask is easier said than done because those that manipulate will try everything in their power to do so.
