Pluvia, Tastes Like Chicken, Bear Down....You guys are animals!

Referring to the 333 article...Who cares what anyone thinks? !!!

Just spent the last hour reading every post on this thread. This is masterful work. Most prudent investors know MOST BB stocks are
losers. Always thought one could make a good living just shorting promotions received daily in junk mail. However, you cyber warriors have made uncovering BB scams into a science! Considering the extreme overvaluation of the general market, focusing short sale efforts on these obscure companies is like a license to print money!

Please consider the following questions?

Contrived or not, the momentum of some promotions can be quite strong. For instance, Pluvia's short of Citron at 12, which subsequently ran to 42. Once you uncover a scam company, what signals do you look for that the strength is fading?

Pluvia, after doing all the research on a company like PLSLA, why not short the heck out of it before putting the word out? Just because you may be miles ahead of the street doesn't mean that you shouldn't profit from it. You and I can publish anything we want knocking Microsoft and it will have no bearing on the true value of the company. It's only the scamers who have to worry about exposing their facade.

Finally, how do you screen for research candidates?

Any other tips or threads would be sincerely appreciated.
