What can we do as investors to help the companies we invest in ?, page-96

Some of us appear to think think that when holders promote their company it is pumping and should be discouraged. Well, please think about it again. When the so-called professionals do it on a large scale, with often questionable motivations, then it is perfectly okay and is called market analysis. I think we are all entitled to promoting our views, our businesses and the companies the shares of which we hold, it is just how we do it. If we do it in a civilised way supported by facts and objective analysis, then it is perfectly okay IMHO.
