Parsifal and Pintohoo, page-5

You've taken a risk starting a thread with this title - and you are likely to annoy a few people as a result

It is also little short on other names.  Throughout this crazy period there have been many voices trying to keep the conversation sane and avoid the frantic dip in sentiment and price.   

I liked the 4e but in truth there was little in it that was unexpected.  What it represented was largely  a careful summary of what we have been told before.  

Yeah sure there was some additional detail and it's helpful to read that but reading the posts from yesterday compared with the posts from the last few weeks there must surely be some insights to be gained about this gyrating sentiment.

Over last weekend I thought that the despair had started to burn itself out anyway and now sentiment seems to be on the turn again.

• So what has actually shifted sentiment?  
• What insights can be gained from the experience?   
• What did the report contain that previous communication didn't?
• How do people stop questioning the fundamentals just because they haven't had their dripfeed of information repeating earlier announcements?   
• How do we arrest the slide in sentiment that is based on an assumption that the market is capable of making a rational and accuarate link between share price and performance for early phase companies?
• How can confidence be maintained without the company needing to constantly feed news because of individual insecurities and doubt?

There are probably a few more questions that could be asked and one observation.  How easy it is for negative emotion to be fuelled by those who choose that path for their own ends.

Let's see whether rational behaviour can be sustained
