<According to you CSCO, JDSU, SUNW are manipulated every day.> OK, Mr. Reading Comprehension, you're now on ignore, with these parting words: what are the average daily trading volumes of CSCO, JDSU, SUNW and GUMM? I would say you must be a moron, but I don't believe anyone could make a series of statements that stupid and actually believe them.

I don't get your malevolence. This is supposed to be a forum for idea exchange. Even if some investors share "irrationally exuberant" expectations, that doesn't vindicate Goldfinger and his ilk to do what they will with GUMM or any other publicly traded company. The efficient market may take time but it will always reward the winners and punish the losers. That isn't what is happening here. You and I both know that the stock is being squeezed of all promise and will contract until margin capitulation. IMO, the pendulum which swung way too far back in February is now swinging too far in the opposite direction. You aren't doing granny any favor. She was run out a while ago when her threshold of pain was reached. This is just market manipulation greed. Of course, you can call any small company anything you want to. Who can argue. But this company has done nothing illegal or otherwise untoward and is trying to brand a product which you don't care for but many of us use and believe in. Calling Dan a shill and hypester is folly. There is no reason to believe he is anything but what he says he is, an investor who tries hard to find a gem in the stock pile. He ardently defends the company and will likely continue to do so because he believes that they will build a successful business. After all the justifying is done, blood money is blood money. We all answer for it some day.
