Daniel, I am really surprised at the complacency over the racist overtones in the Creaf thread, where a lot of people just basically said, "Oh well, they are analysts in Singapore, which means they can't understand the business model and are irrelevent."

I mean, how would you have reacted if someone said, hypothetically, "Oh well, they are just a bunch of Jewish bankers, and you know you can't trust them." I am just proposing that hypothetically, of course, and I don't really believe that.

Wouldn't anybody find that offensive?

The Singapore analysts were simply dismissed for being from Singapore. There was one lame attempt to explain that away through geography by saying, "yes, but Creaf is a NASDAQ stock and they are in Singapore." But the same person just minutes before was arguing that Creaf was a Singapore-based stock, so he was fairly befuddled in his reasoning. Besides, in this age of global markets, that doesn't make any sense anyway.

Happy Investing!
