ttf, why post price targets if you have no data?

Last post was a little ambiguous. Comparing the last post with
the previous 2 or three makes a composite attitude that you
are either sitting on the sidelines because of losses in the
past or if you are investing, you are heavily short!

The last post shows ambiguity:

A) vs B)

Where A) is
"Headed to $15."
Where B) is
"Hope I'm wrong."

Also, your use of the word clobbered is perhaps too strong.
It is not uncommon for a stock to fluctuate 10-15% during
volitle sideways trends! This is not clobbered! Clobbered
to me is if the stock drops 20% or more. Going from 22 to
20 is not clobbered! The 2 point dip is much less than the
SIX point increase it recently had!

Question for you: if sound view and Cowen reiterated
s.t.b. and strong buy respectively, do you think they would
have done so if they thought the trend was to 15 like you so
strongly believe? Perhaps Soundview and Cowen have resources
and data that make them think that the trend is upwards rather
then downward?? Something to think about!

At this time I am not in a BEAS position and will not make
questionable speculations about BEAS going up or down.

Another question, if you apparently hate BEAS and if you
are not shorting the stock, why do you bother with it???

The other funny thing about your posts, is that you do not
back up your $15 target with any kind of insights to
earnings/financials, comments from analysts, market analysis,
or otherwise. All you ever says is $15. It would be foolish
for anyone to listen to you as long as you continue to NOT
provide data.

Of course everyone is entitle to an opinion. But what really
makes the net cluttered is when there is SPAM and when there
is unsubstantiated opinions. A decision to buy or
sell can not be made just because you said it will be $15 and
you provide no other data to justify this opinion. An opinion
without data is just that - to be ignored until confirmed by other
sources that provide data!

I really hope that you are not trolling to flame someone. I
am not trying to flame you. If you could provide anything let it
be data and sources to back up your claim of $15.

Yes, your opinion is important. It's MUCH MORE important if you
can back it up. If you can not back it up (with data and facts)
it's only wasting everyone's time reading the garbage.
If I wanted to get opinions on stock price targets without
data, I would go get a haircut and listen to my barber's
opinions - he's much more entertaining.
