Dave, I did not mean to sound overly condescending, I brought SYSF a couple months ago at 12, right after the down grading. Watched it fall to 8 and stay there for a while. I pulled out with 33% loss, now I saw it climb to 14 waited for the anticipated news the same night and thought, it was on a roll. Got in the next morning at 12 1/2 during the INTC fallout. Thought I got a bargain, and heard all the criticism here on this thread. I got a bit frazzled by it all. I have people on other threads send messages back and forth for months beating up the company they supposedly invested in, and watched that stock go down the drain. What I can't understand is how people who follow a stock spend so much energy talking it down to a loser. In fact some of the more naive people would believe all the criticism and bail out or never get in causing it to flop or go nowhere. Yes, it would take a lot of people, alot more than the ones reading this thread to react to what is said here and cause the stock to move in a given direction. But like they say, when you go to the voting booth to vote for the president, he/she is elected by one vote at the time. The same applies to people who cast their opinions on stocks. I don't think one person can move a stock one way or the other, but if enough people believe a certain point, it would tend to go to the path of least resistance.
I used to work with you at Sprint in Reston between 1988-1992. I don't care to disclose my full identity on this thread. |
