Will you be chairman of the Truth Committee?

There sure is a lot of garbage on SI by psychos, ignoramuses and short sellers attacking stocks that they are short or just hate for one reason or another. But there also are a lot of shallow hypster longs on the threads I follow. I think that people who believe a poster on SI can cause a stock to drop are really in over their heads and don't know what the hell is going on. Even if the poster is in collusion with a MM who is driving the price down, it's not the poster but the MM killing the stock. I'm glad Par is suing those lying jerks including the frauds at Barron's.

Some of the folks that are high fiving each other now were bashing Par just a few weeks ago and are probably the same weak hands bashing anyone who isn't hooting and hollering as FIBR returns to fair value.

I will probably regret selling half my position the other day at 4.94 because I may not be able to get back in below my sell price. But the other half is riding and keeps me happy. For public stating what I did on this thread I was attacked as a shortseller trying to scare some of the weak hands holding this stock. And got a lecture about most people on this thread that I've been following for a year being "investors." I bought at 6, 4, and 2.88 during 1997. I sold half at 4.94. Am I an upstanding investor or a lowly trader?

I do appreciate those who constructively criticized my use of stochastics. I didn't give the proper weight to the great OBV when deciding to cut back.

>>>You would defend to the death their right to make false and defamatory allegations about a company solely for the purpose of self-serving personal gain?<<<

Nope. I see you missed the point.

What we need is the gov't to tell us what we may and may not post on the Internet..right. Which statement was it exactly that caused it to fall? Did you sell because you believed them? Did you consider the counter arguments presented here? Did you consider that perhaps the large buyer stepped aside because 6 1/4 was the highest he was willing to pay? Did you consider that perhaps the rise further up is just unsustainable? Should the gov't guarantee stock prices that never fluctuate to the downside?

It was a normal market fluctuation for gods sake.

Let's hear it Mr. Morrison, what did I say that was false?

Argue me point by point. Come on, prove I don't know what I'm talking about.

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth. It would spoil your fantasy of this company.
