Eric,

I agree with your thoughts. What I don't agree with is people (i.e. Sarmad) who come on here and state that Amazon is going to zero - with no justification. If someone is going to bother writing info on the thread, it would seem like a person could state why it's going to zero.

I was responding to this comment by Sarmad,

AMZN until several months later.
Danny, I thought you had these scams figured out pretty well. But I guess even the more nimble players get caught sometimes. Hopefully you can get out without much damage, though it looks pretty bleak right now. I think punching out at zero is the most likely outcome for Amazon (the company and the stock).


I agree with your comments that analysts write positive comments regardless of the stock. This is a given. But to write, as Sarmad does above, that Amazon is a scam and going to zero - without any justification - is inappropriate. If you find it enlightening, so be it. Positive or negative, explain your reasoning if making a comment that a stock is a scam or going to zero. Is this asking to much?

What is an appropriate name to refer to someone as - if not a cockroach - when they write such comments?
