Although I would call a positive poster to a single thread a "long" rather than a "tout," I understand your perspective. There's nothing wrong with being passionate about a stock you are long on. Typically, on SI, if someone posts to a single thread in large volumes, it is very likely that the person is a tout or a shill. Of course, there are exceptions (which hopefully you are). My point is this. Bill Wexler's recommendation alone won't cause a stock to fall. It will rise and fall on its own merits. That starts right now. I'm not big on name calling. I'm glad to hear that. Since I don't intend to short this stock (yet), I'm going to leave this debate to others.
