"As for 40% equity loss...please explain that one to me!"

Well, RRRR fell from almost 20 to the 10s....

Yeah, we travel in packs. Barb blows a whistle and we come running. <G>

After you have been here a while, you will develop a feel for certain posters, and often develop a similarity in tastes for investment opportunities. So you end up on the same threads, and begin to trust the opinions and judgment of the posters who you know through a long association. This is no excuse for doing your own DD on any stock, but if you know someone via a long history you tend to associate with that person. I came here today because I shorted RRRR a while back, and it's bookmarked and active today.

Mary -

Per usual the shorts don't know jack about anything - only that the stock appeared in the top 10 movers list a couple of months back. They short it trying to make a couple of points and trumpet to the world any "perceived" negatives that they could glean in a couple of minutes to bolster their chances of making money. Basically they're all lazy, can't spend the time to do real due diligence, just play momentum (gamblers)! Come on red or black and roll the dice... Stick to your guns you are on track. Congratulations to having a proven strategy. I can't wait to hear back how much $ the shorts make trading, all baloney, one here, maybe one there, but on the whole they are full of it, as they are with themselves.
