40c Santa Down Under!!, page-25

Please don't call Gonz impertinent, there's no telling how far he might go under that sort of encouragement.

Why did you get a negative reaction? Let me have a stab. Your post says you are getting out of EMH because populist movements:
(a) will not cease anytime soon, and
(b) ruthlessly use foreign investors "as objects for their evil intentions".

Terrific.

Your audience includes people who have been painstakingly applying their intelligence to researching this stock for a long time - sometimes years. They have put their money into it and they know that the factors which will spell out its future are many and complex and interrelated. They understand that able minds may well reach different conclusions about its prospects. They respect reasoning and evidence. They also don't mind laughing at the laughable.

You come along and flop out a couple of absurdly simple, unqualified opinions as your reasons to sell. Not a jot of evidence or reasoning. By way of bonus insult you imply that your readers, as foreign investors in EMH, will be "ruthlessly used" as objects of the evil intentions of someone or other.

Why don't you have a bit of a laugh at yourself and start again. We've all been there.
Good luck!
