Is the honeymoon over?, page-176

without a doubt their communication with NC in the last 12 months was not good, for reasons previously discussed.
but also it's worth remembering, many many companies listed do much the same, they promote their product and quite often have adventurous revenue forecasts or quote total market $ and have high hopes of achieving big market shares, it's the nature of business to a large extent. this concept of pristine immaculate ethical managers delivering confession box pure truth to investors....I don't think I've ever seen it, and regarding the band of depressed cranky old posters around here continually bleating as if they alone walk with the angels of truth, well I don't find it convincing. sorry chaps, me think thou doth protest too much

in fact if there was ever an example of pure honest reporting I would have to say our American managers Dirk and crew have over exceeded....and look what happened! did they really need to make a big deal about US market cycles, factories closing in Winter/small dip in revenue and actually call it a "headwind"? what a gift from heaven for some.

but as they say, when retailers sell instos buy, there's a reason for cliches. oh well. another day another dollar.
