Sun Tzu,
I'm glad that you included in your post that you were not short. The otherwise naive reader might note that you only joined as a trial member on the 15th (the night earnings were reported), posted benign to increasingly negative comments on the company and culminating, as of this post with a hard sell, no pun intended, to sell one TDFX shares...one could have concluded you were a short. Thanks again for clearing that up.
I was particularly impressed with this post for it's strong appeal to the subjective emotions of the investor, Unlike your previous posts which tended towards subtle emphasis emphasis (paraphrasing) "slightly increasing expenses." Very nice shift.
I thought at first, that you had placed a lot of non-reusable effort in your post, but here I was wrong. I quick search and replace of "TDFX" to "CHKPF" or "RMBS" a couple of number changes to make it appropriate for those share values and your good to go. One minor thing you need to touch up on is the composition was clearly done outside of SI, probably a saved file, and you lost some of the formatting with the copy/paste.
In closing I noted your favorite quote: "It is better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heaven."
Good luck in your endeavors. Jim |
