To thread,

1. My 2cents re "attacking the analysts":

Best case, they'll ignore us. No harm done.
Worst case, we'll piss them off. They have more influence with institutional money than this thread will ever have.

There's no money to gain, and perhaps lots to lose by unnecessarily annoying them. Personally, I'm grateful. There's no other way I could have established a position at this time and price. For those who bought much higher, I accept that this is not a soothing thought.;-)

Having the satisfaction of "telling some dumb analyst off", IMO, isn't worth the risk.

2. My 2 cents re attacking the "shorts"

Seems an awful lot like the story about the mouse attempting to make love with an elephant. A publicly announced anti-short campaign is likely to be absolutely meaningless. Let the fundamentals take their course. When this stock is ready to move, it will and the smarter "shorts" will be forced to cover quickly. The others will help fuel further increases as improving outlooks become obvious to all.

If you believe in the stock, futile attempts to manipulate the price upward, are completely unnecessary.

3. Last random thought: Re all the moaning, agony and pain expressed publicly during the last 2 weeks. While noone enjoys seeing their long position decrease in value, this is reality. If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen.

My apologies for another random post with no fundamental information of any value to anyone.

Ian.
