this is no way intended to be offensive or aimed at someone in particular.... as basically I have been caught out as well, so it includes me....

Basically, the market is made up of many people, the smart, the average and the dumb... but we can say that any major price changes are reasoanble and is a fair representation of the market/company etc...

so what gets to me is that even with all the many years of expeirence for some, and not so for some.... to expect the SP to rise or to shoot up through their research, and to find the sp drop consistently, leaving many of us, including myself, scratching our heads thinking "why the hell has this happened"

Doesnt this prove, how absolutely clueless we all are.....

Say you guessed/predicted through careful DYOR. that a share was going to shoot up and it only increased slightly or didn't change, this means that you were off slightly....

but how can anyone get it so wrong, and be confident.....

eg, the directors, fund managers, big players usually get it right for a reason, and thats why they are usually a lot more successful then the average joe..

As I said, this post is not intended to offensive, but it is something I have staretd to ask myself, seeing a few of the comments after some of the stocks including RAU shoot down....
