ahhaha is kicking ass and taking no prisoners on ATHM thread....lol I want to inform anyone reading this that ATHM is going to gap open down say 20 points tomorrow. The reason is this: I recently made a valuation of ATHM and posted the results here. Since we are in a bear market, it is critical to start looking at valuations. That's what a bear market is all about, discovering what is fair. The public loves fairness, so now they are going to get it. I said ATHM could make $2.00 in two years if they put together 2M subscribers. They could also hold a 50 multiple. Read $100/shr. These are generous figures. The stock has been evaluated at a premium to this generosity. With todays news you can't expect my projection to hold and now there is a reason for adjustment. You would have to reduce my projection by 1/3 ceteris paribus, so now the stock is fair at 66. Look. I don't care a wit about my credibility. Do you really put me in the amateur or salesman class that Fool is in where image and credibility is so important? I post on SI because I have always felt that there are a few people who can use my help. Most of you are amateurs even if you've being doing this for more than a decade. I know guys who have been in it fo posted here by any of you has shown the least understanding of what is involved. You don't retain what you read and you don't seem to be able to assimilate what is necessary to succeed. Don't feel insulted because the professional investment community is no better. They make a lot of money because they out sit their opponents. They are paid for their obedience, not for all the critical factors necessary to run a successful portfolio. To exhibit those factors is considered bad form, so you pretend in order to receive pay. Fool is an actor and actors are fools. The comments you have made show you are what Jesse Livermore classified as a "second class sucker". You can't make it in this business if you can't see the red flags flying everywhere. That means you can't see what it is I'm saying. So if you don't wish to read what I have to say, you have that ole "next" button.
