IT IS EASIER TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO SELLING THAN IT IS TO SCARE PEOPLE INTO
BUYING A STOCK.


what complete and total nonsense. Greed is just a strong a factor in the markets as fear. The majority of investors are naturally predisposed towards looking for reasons to buy a stock. It is just as easy, if not more so, to manipulate people into buying a stock by circulating fanciful rumours.

But they have the edge of fear, lies, falsehoods to post and pray(sic) on the nervous. Longs don't have that.

they have something just as good as fear, they have greed. Greed is an equally powerful emotion. The hypsters also have lies and falsehoods to post and prey on the greedy. And guess what, they have fear as well. You may be a bit young to realize this but for a lot of people they already have fears that they will not have enough to retire on. This fear and greed make them excellent targets for hypesters.

Feel free to ask the SEC whether they find more hyping scams than shorting scams. Any one who believes that shorters have an easier time scaring investors than hypers have is sadly mistaken. At best it is equal. But the evidence is much stronger that the hypsters proliferate.
