Fulvio, Hmm, you and I must have looked at two entirely different forums. The
pro-KRY forum I found seemed like just that, a pro-KRY forum.
And as for the intent of my post? Simple. Over the time I have participated in SI
discussion , there have been a number of company's that I can think of (BXM, KRT,
PFG, KRY) where the discussion turned into a battle of who is right and who is
wrong. To me , that is not a healthy way of looking at the situation. It should be
possible to be long and see flaws in an investment, or when to get out. A lot of posters
on SH for instance had a hard time with Peter Grandich telling them to take some
profit. Why would he do that , if he still believed in the situation!? As it turns out Peter
had a valid point.
By turning this or any other forum into a pissing contest between those who are long,
and those who are short, we are losing sight of what it is all about. Namely, making
money.
As for stating my own position in regards to a company, that is not intended to be
boastful. I like to know where a poster is coming from when he posts, and think it to
be only the decent thing to do to return the favor. Truth be know I had a lot more
crappy investments then good ones in the last year.
One of those btw, deserves looking at, out of a discussion point of view. A diamond
firm on the TSE has a discussion forum on SI. I bought the company at 0.78 a year
and a half ago. Traded in it at various times, but sold the last of it at 0.09 two weeks
ago.
The thread has nothing but a few hundred posts of people scratching their head,
wondering what happened.
There has been some very irritating negative posters here.
(viper comes to mind, but also some of the Asensio gloaters are very annoying) But I
prefer to hear what they have to say, and will treat them with courtesy, because it beats
the hell out of scratching your head, because you failed to see what was wrong with
the company.
All the best, Robert |
