TO ALL: All stocks will see what has happened here. The volume drops off waiting on some new development. Folks who have put their faith into the company have their investment bought and sit back to watch. Most of the activity is the impatient folks who are saying to themselves something like "I have better things to do like getting into the next TM hype" ... or something like that. It is not that they are down on this stock, just that something else is hot and they need their money. Personally, I have lost a bundle occasionally doing the jump to the next hot thing. Does the price declining on low volume really mean anything? Nope, it does not. Lets face it straight on: This company is just getting going. Several dollars per share is not out of possibility by year's end, and the upside is absolutely tremendous.
So what DO we really have here. Well, we have a few folks that are experts at running up our blood pressure. They do it by using tactics that are what the Supreme Court refers to as "Fighting Words." That is ordinary language used in a fashion that incites people to violence. When these folks ask questions that they KNOW they are not entitled to an answer, others who are unknowledgeble get confused. The unknowledgible may say: That sounds like a reasonable question. The fact it is not answered must mean there is something to hide. Is it true? OF COURSE NOT! It aggrevates those who know better and if they were within arm's reach would probably be looking for a cop to break it up. But since they are not within arm's reach, they argue on here.
But, we cannot educate the world on what information is reasonable to ask and what is not. They will just have to learn it as we all did, through exposure and experience. Once the newbies learn that these "innocent" questions are nothing but negative hype, they will also learn how to tell a promising company from a run-up and right back down company.
OK, dose of reality: This is a promising company. They are an infant and at 5c what more can you expect than an infant. It has to go through its teething period. If AWS were up and running right now, we would not have a 5c stock, we would have a 2 or 3 dollar stock! Has the company mislead us? Nope, they have responded to all of our emails and have shared that they still have some work to do. Last week they sent me a personal email which said "We HOPE to have AWS up by the first of the week. That is not a missed promise, it is a shared hope. Well, which is worse? To start up with a web site that is full of bugs or to work out the bugs and delay a while longer? I personally think it is better to let the negatives hype a bit on meaningless worthless crap than it would be to publish a site with bugs.
The reality: The negative hypsters are paid to do what they do. They have no scruples, and no ethics. They play on data which is meaningless, but no one can really refute. Is it that no one can refute it because it is true? NO, NOT AT ALL. It cannot be refuted because it is meaningless and cannot be proven either way. It is an illusion and nothing more. Therein lies the FRAUD on the part of the negative hypsters. They KNOW that the points they harp on over and over are meaningless, but do it with such repetition and conviction that some believe that it must be true or someone would refute it.
IF YOU ARE A NEWBIE: You might seriously ask yourself: What is the purpose of someone who posts over and over about how bad a stock is? Do they have a bone to pick? What could they possibly gain? Do they really want me to believe that they are just good simaritains out to keep me from hurting myself? As you answer these questions for yourself, you will surely come to the conclusion that NO ONE IS THAT ALTRUISTIC! They have a hidden agenda. They make money by forcing the stock down. You might also consider these two opposing views: 1) Investors buy a stock because they think it is going up. 2) Shorters sell a stock that they DON'T OWN because they want it to go down. Those who are buying naturally want newbies to jump on the bandwagon with them and help the stock increase. They do it by posting the best information that can be substantiated in some way. Folks that want it to go down, though, do not do it with the best information available, they do it with FEAR. They borrow stock that is supposed to be held and they sell it hoping that they can buy back at a lower price in a few days. Their selling combined with fear selling causes the price to drop!
Everyone should invest with their head, but by the same token, they should bail on a stock because there is something wrong with the reason they bought in the first place, NOT because they have been scared into selling.
