Interesting psychological analysis on why people who are not invested in the stock still spend a lot of time spewing negativity (which is probably well deserved). It doesn't seem logical but I guess its open to interpretation.
The reason why I'm on this board is pretty obvious. I bought a bunch of stock (read: I have a vested interest). There isn't a bid to the stock (read: so I will probably continue to have a vested interest) And secondly, I have tried to reach out to management, so far unsuccessfully, so that I can improve the odds that my investment doesn't go to zero and I (read: activelt investing). I am in a position to help the company acheive some goals if management is interested in the offer. So, stated differently, my involvement on this board should be easy to understand. Your explanation for why people waste their lives providing due diligence on a stock they don't own, on the otherhand is not. I guess we should leave it at that and move on.
