I never understood short sellers like this haolin character. One thing's for sure- the obnoxious short-sellers all behave exactly the same way! You can find them on most SI threads. I think it's fascinating how they show up at a moment of crisis, bash the stock, warn of further doom, and tend to have no clue whatsoever. What drives these people?
It is truly a pathetic wretch who must kick every IPIC investor while the stock's down. I suppose the people (or spiders, take your pick) who behave this way have such low self-esteem that their only source of enjoyment is taunting others and saying "I told you so!"
Alas, this is the drawback to having message boards, compared to personal meetings (as in investment clubs). This haolin crank wouldn't dare show up at a group discussion about IPIC. Its behavior is exhibited only in venues of relative anonymity, such as SI. But personal meetings are impractical, so we must put up with these short shorts or whatever the hell they are. It's not unlike driving in bad traffic: It doesn't matter how much the roads are improved, how much education the drivers get, how nice and patient most people are, because it only takes one idiot to disrupt the flow of traffic. But these types of inconveniences will always exist, as long as there are other people.
Another thing...all those people panic-selling IPIC, like haolin, who claim the sky's falling, need to pop some Pagoclone, pronto. Oops, gotta wait for the NDA.
Long IPIC,
