DO NOT SELL!!

The "do not sell" above on the end of that letter seems pretty strange, as if they would say sell regardless of the situation, everyone has only their own interests at heart at the end of the day, even though it is good having these forums to discuss shares etc. But i personally think the markets a mugs game that the moment, ALL mostly bad news on the horizon (markets in general i mean), so any slightly bad news is being amplified. From what i have observed, as im reasonably new to HC is holders come together that hold the stock and hypothesize on the merits of company xy and z, and end up becoming emotional toward their stock, OR they are below their entry price and its in their interest for the price to rise, (well of course, thats what every stockholder wants), but the fact of the matter is any xyz company share price can go down, so basically caution is always needed, and ESPECIALLY in the current environment.
