Raven -

The only thing I see wrong with this response is that it misses the point. The SEC is not interested in prosecuting people who hype stocks. They prosecute people who hype stocks without revealing that they are paid to do so, or that they have some other material connection to the company whose stock is being hyped.

It is perfectly permissible, under SEC regulations, to express the opinion that a stock is going to rise or fall, whether or not that opinion is correct.
