"a slick presentation from a confident manager can give you a good feeling which isn't justified. In other words, if the presenter is a good salesperson, I would probably like the stock more than I should. "

That's what I'm trying to guard against. Thanks for the perspective.

So the question becomes: "if management consists of slick presenters who try to oversell (fool?) investors about the true state of the company - then does that mean anything to you? Or do you just have to expect that management is going to put overly optimistic spin? That they have to say it like they mean it - even if they don't"
