Hello! KZAP, Good Feedback! ( Looks like we are both getting bettor?) You made a valid point to think about in your previous posting,where you indicated that "feels right!" about a stock is not a valid monitor or evaluation /research tool in evaluating a stock as an investment potential!----But! In my opinion, my feeling about an investment can sometimes be reinforced or otherwise, dependent on the timeliness, on the feedback that I get from Company Representatives, and in the manner it is directed and communicated! ( personally, when I mention feels right-by that I mean that to me, everything appears to be on the "UP and UP!"----in attempting to read between the lines! KZAP!!! You mentioned in your own opinion that emotions should have nothing to do with investing!-----I tend to agree with you, however, in my opinion, I would be attempting to fool myself , if I was trying to trully convince myself that emotions within the investment community do not from time to time do not dramatically affect the share price of stocks ( at least temporarily!)--It's my guess that there are people out their that carefully follow and scrutenize emotional levels of stock issues that are near and dear to investors hearts! Two! Ficticious Examples! First! Let's pretend for a moment that someone see's Jack standing at a check-in counter at a major international airport, airline tickets in hand, and a boarding pass that indicates the plane is going to Australia!---He is also carrying a surf board and a set of golf clubs with him! A loyal CVIA Shareholder spots this , runs home and posts his or her findings on the CVIA Thread!----What would be the emotional level be at that moment?----Would one's emotions direct one to make a spontaneous investment decision? Who Knows? But! I have my own guess!--------And how would the emotional factor be affected if just the day prior , Jack advised that he was going to have a very strenuous weekend ahead of him, working on CVIA merger details??? Would everyone wait patiently to find out all the details , or would some investors react on emotion and possibly make some revision to their share position? ( Who Knows?) Then how would the emotions change if a day later we found out that Jack had driven a friend to the airport that was going to Australia, and was just saving their place in line ( holding) their surf board, while the traveller went to buy a newspaper??? ( Who Knows?) Second Ficticious Scenario! What if someone saw Jack having lunch with a very Senior Director of one of the largest companies in North America, and then as they parted they saw Jack and the Senior Director, laughing, back slapping each other in a very positive manner, and then shaking hands and then went their separate ways? Then! If that CVIA Thread Participant decided to post what they thought they saw on the thread-----would there be any possible emotional impact on the investment potential of CVIA and it's shareholders? Who Knows? Then later ,if we found out that it was an former High School friend of Jack's, that he hadn't seen for many years that was in town for a quick visit! Certainly,everyone will have their own personal views as to whether emotions play a part in the investment scenario! My personal opinion, sometimes leads me to think that emotions and feelings sometimes play an interactive role within the framework of the "Stock Zone!" ( Of course all this ficticious material in this posting is just my own personal opinion-----and as has been stated many times before everyone should do what is right for them, you all I imagine have worked very hard for your money!)
