No. Surely, it is only management who can drive any company into failure. But it is the act of bashing that promotes an image of failure to the investor, and thus surely does play a significant role in the pps performance of the stock, which is directly related to the success of the company to some extent.
I am now, however, suggesting that every one of your posts that I have read on this board does not have to be "percieved as negative" by anyone, they are, by definition, negative posts.
