People fear and despise what they don't understand. The problem is generally a postion they hold, however it's difficult to admit a mistake and easier to shoot at the messenger. If they had a sound investment basis for their position they would ignore MP and spend time on more profitable activities

Well there are people who can't always stand the truth. Edit: nowadays, either way. Also MP long picks outperformed the markets by any means. And there are people who didn't take them.

But compare it to the situation when a girl friend tells you thru telephone that she leaves you. What do you do? As helpless as you are, perhaps you throw the handset out of the window...(that applies to people in particular, who have fallen in love with certain stocks).

The bash MP who brings the bad news but not the management of the co, who did a lousy job...

Mr. Pink has a habit about being right on their stocks. And if he posts on their BB, he usually posts as a "short". Since he makes such good picks, he's feared and hated by the longs that fall in love with their stock(s). They don't like to lose their money and are too stubborn to sell. So they blame Mr P.
