Ms. Payne: The amazing thing is that tons of people are going long after Mr. ASSensio's report. Why are they buying? Would you consider them amateurs? Nick

This, from a disinterested observer (I own no CCSI), is neither here nor there with respect to the subject of rationally buying or selling CCSI (it belongs I suppose on the moral philosophy 101 board), but with respect to << you make it sound like following Asensio's recommendations is some how unsavory. I assure you, it is most profitable. >> Ms. Payne: You imply a contradiction between a practice's profitability and it's unsavoriness. There is, obviously, no contradiction. Following and abetting the likes of Asensio could be both unsavory and highly profitable. If I may say so, you come across as a remarkably, even eerily cold, detached calculator(who by all appearances spends the majority of her life posting messages on a computer screen). You also say you place a high value on "the facts" and "the truth" while at the same time you appear strikingly insensitive to Asensio's rather obvious calculated recklessness with the facts (if you don't agree that he comes across as calculatingly reckless then there's nothing to talk about). Shorting is one thing but I am assuming you can't really believe that Asensio's press releases evince any real care for the real truth about the company he is targeting. So why the lectures on truth-seeking and respect for the facts? Stick with lectures on the rational use of calculated distortions to separate people from their money and you'll be on less hypocritical ground.
