Re: Scam indicator

On the toolbar at the top of investorshub pages, click on the "Hot!" button. Clicking on "Buzz Cloud" lists the most searched for tickers in the last 24 hours. Interesting that on this list are such beauties as CVM, CTIC, HEB, and GVBP (among ~50 stocks). This list to me implies very active traders watching the ticker of their favorite momo stocks very closely. I.e., those that follow these stocks are not the type of investors that are nearly as interested in the fundamentals, science or integrity of the company as they are in penny moves in the stocks.

That’s a fine attempt at the quiz answer, but posting volume on a given board changes from day to day, which makes your indicator unduly dynamic. For instance, since the SEC halted trading on GVBP, the volume of posting on that board has plummeted as one would expect. Nevertheless, the scam indicator I have in mind continues to mark GVBP as a scam.
