No disrespect, but if people listen to other frustrated people and use it as their determining factor in investing, then they're idiots and they deserve to lose every penny they have.

Do the DD, then make the investment.

Frustrated investors...1 or 2 or 7 do little to nothing to effect the PPS.

OK, Chiricano, your opinion is noted. One last long-winded post before I go.LOL
This whole thing reminds me of a rule-of-thumb I once heard about car buying. The rule was if one begins to "like" the car salesperson after chatting for a while then it's best to leave and go elsewhere. He is trying to get you to pay the most and you are trying to pay the least...mutually exclusive. Liking him will only lead to bad decisions and the inability to be a tough negotiator.
Now, the relationship between shareholders and management is not quite the same as the car buyer/seller relationship, but I think there is some similarity. Managements' priorities can often be opposed to those of the shareholder even though that's not how it should be. You see it all of the time and especially in the pinkies. Dilution, for example, often leads to management creating a bigger "pie" and shareholders consequently seeing their slices get thinner and thinner. Companies should love their workers but we have to have unions to keep mgmnt in check,etc.

Too many investors want to "like" the stock's management. They want to get to know them and call them by their first name as though they're long lost friends. The problem is, like with the car sales, "liking" people causes one to defend those people and even make excuses for them. Not good in business!
Holding public stock is a sort of business relationship and should be kept that way, IMO. Shareholders' duty should be to hold management's feet to the fire. It should be to ensure that management is doing everything possible to increase SHAREHOLDERS' VALUE. Period.

I believe,just IMO, that many of you die-hard longs violate that rule of thumb. (Not that you believe in it anyway.LOL)You grow, even go out of your way, to "like" the management you're invested in rather than dealing with them more like adversaries which, again IMO, is what managements more closely resemble vis-a-vis shareholders.

Anyway, that's why you can't stand me, you're in love with ALRY (LOL)and opposed to anyone who might say an uncomplimentary word.

Good Luck and, believe it or not, unless you're ALRY management, we are on the same side.
