William, thanks for the post on your trip to Italy. It's good to "Go See" what is going on at a company that you are interested in.
I would like to address these recent posts, and please do not flame me. I do not have a problem with with posts whether they are pro or con. Once I get all the information, then I weigh the facts and make a decision. I can understand why someone who owns a stock (like AWLT) would come to a thread and discuss it. Yes, sometimes we all get a little excited and become "cheerleaders". Bottom like is we all want to make money. Of course you, I, or anyone are going to be mostly positive about a stock that we hold long. I dont have a problem with people who post "negative" information either. The thing that makes me suspicious, is who has the time to go to various "threads" and post negative information about a stock that they do not own. If someone is raising questions that may seem negative, while they are trying to decide to buy, that is OK too. However, some of these negative posts do not seem to fall into that category.
I guess the bottom line is, I can understand why someone who owns a stock would be posting positive comments. But why would someone who doesnt own a stock be posting negative comments. I for one, barely have time to read about and research the stocks I own or are thinking about buying. Anyway, if anyone would like to elaborate, thanks in advance.... |
