>>>Say what you want, you're just a loud mouth...I haven't made anyone lose money...no one twists anyone's arm to buy or sell stocks, they do it on their own...If I like a stock I go with it...I haven't lost a penny because I haven't sold, nor will I til I make good money, which I know I will with this company...Patience will reward us all...the fool sells at a loss, the winner hangs tight and has his day in the sun. <<<

Loud mouth? I won't even get into that.

And I would bet money if I could, that someone on the YHOO thread did buy COOL from reading your "bullish" posts. Some people on the YHOO thread are extremely new to investing. I don't doubt in the least that someone bought because they considered your posts as diligent research. Not that it's your fault or that you should care.

Second, I've known many past investors that had your frame of mind. You don't lose until you sell, or someday this stock will shine again and when it does I will be the winner for holding and believing in it.

A few actually do hold on to that winning stock. But everyone thinks their stock is a winning stock. And I've seen many many more investors lose all their portfolio due to that mentality as they eventually came upon a stock that ruined them. And they are out of the game.

It's also my experience that it is the seasoned trader or investor not the fool that takes his/her loss, not out of emotion but out of discipline, and succeeds in this market.

Just admit to yourself that you hype this stock for totally selfish reasons and in doing so you are hurting inexperieced investors-----end of story. I hope it turns out well for you-----just stop the irresponsible hype.
