Skimmed down through the posts. Hysteria abounds concerning the false/whatever quote of 140.
Let me begin by saying that if you invested in this stock without considering that 140 is a viable quote, then why are you here?
Yes optimism abounds here and,perhaps, the talent contributing to this post is the best available in such a forum.
I listen to it and benefit. I try to contribute.
But realize that a group here trades this stock and has far more resources than most. I find myself in the 'middle' faction. I have more shares than many and fewer shares than many. I look to this source as a quick way to share news and comments. AOL is my largest holding.
Everything should be taken with a grain of salt. Confirm what is said here with your own research. Realize that, when it comes down to it, it is every investor to themselves. No matter how 'tight' everyone appears to be, the conversation stops if a trade needs to be executed.
There is nothing wrong with that.
I will reiterate that those observing/participating when we hit 170+ were still 'encouraged' to 'jump in before it is too late.'
Nothing could go wrong.
It did.
Folks lost money in panic selling.
I will hold this stock for some time. I respond to nothing but gut instinct with a lot of DD. It has worked for me. This forum has worked for me. I read between the lines.
