"I'm always skeptical of the speculation one encounters that people actually try to destroy a high-quality thread with negative or damaging posts. I doubt if that's even possible on SI, since most people post in very good faith." I agree that only a very few individuals ons SI will have outright speculation or misleading intention. But it is also true that every good faith need not be facts-based nor true. A general comment (not against any individual): Being a scientist does not mean he/she knows everything. For example, my title is "research scientist", but I have no idea about so many things even in my field as it keeps expanding at a much rapid pace than I have time to absorb. So I won't claim with certainty how market works unless I know how exactly market works. -Karun

How can you possibly accuse Nancy of trying to destroy a thread with negative posts? Anyway, positive posts in the face of negative price action can also destroy a thread. Have you ever considered that there is such a thing as being too positive about a declining stock price on heavy volume? --Tony
