Hi cow, I respectfully disagree. I have no issues with holders selling.
I disagree with the concept of borrowing shares and then selling them, I.e.shorting. even more so Naked Shorting.
I disagree with blatant lying, manipulation, hit pieces in the media, paid downrampers, biased forums, non transparent traiding, as well as organised short attacks on stocks with a high retail holding.
All of the above don, not because of any fundamental shortcomings with the underlying SP, but because of the ability or belief of the involved parties that they can make money by ripping off retail investors and shaking them out.
I have learned how to deal with this over the years, However the majority of retail investors are not as seasoned as may be you are or I am. People being people, are influencing by the majority. That is why the Dow ramping is so prevalent here. It is not an attempt, it is a proven tactic to influence the behaviour and sentiment of people.
