I never fail to be impressed by the highly organised and disciplined manner in which disciples of well known and highly skilled SHORTERS e.g. Anthony@Pacific, an acknowledged GURU of the art, attach themselves to the SI threads for shares, weak on performance and where shareholders are in for the long haul, and especially where a considerable time has to elapse before the market see any profit! With such a long timescale involved, and peoples hopes built on hype milestones, the problem of judging when to jump off the train as it starts to freewheel downhill after an arduous climb, becomes easier the longer they have been in control of the share. Elements of that control are to be seen in the way they DOMINATE the SI board, and combine to stifle any opposition, leaving only one or two sentries on board to manage their presence. If anyone comes who looks like opposition, they quickly call troops from other boards, to drown out the noise!!!
The SHORTS have the FCM board and the share, and they have no opposition, and if the company ever has any success, they will see it coming a mile away..... The longs eventually get fed up and want to sell, but the only way out is into the arms of the Shorts, whose job it is to make sure they buy any shares going cheap, and at a price they now dictate!!!
Its a vicious grip, and being infected by the SHORT virus, is a fact of life...and they will remain here, until the company can produce an upward momentum that buys them out and rewards them for their time!!
And if the company goes bust as well...that's a bonus!!!
However, we are increasingly spared one element of the SHORT instruction manual.... Shorters in future, will be very careful about including lies and untruths as part of their initial campaign to damage the target company and the share price...as there is substantial litigation in progress against some who are in the dock because of it!! |
