I sold at .34 and .33. I'm no longer a holder. I figured that if the reports are good I could buy later, but I also think that if they were exceptional ARD would have released a preliminary announcement already.
My experience with BLK and ARD is that I followed the local peddler. In the case of BLK a 'happy hippy' who portrayed himself to be a long term investor and encouraged investors to hold long term. I recently re-posted his old posts that show he had actually sold at the peak and re-bought lower. He was also accused if attempting to down ramp AVB last week.
On ARD my son tried to contact Silvermac for the site visit and was only given the email address of the company.
I also found out that there are appears to be paid people to post in HC to make people ramp up, down or hold. Just google downrampers, the HC complaints go back to 2007.
I'm still in shock after being down over six figures on BLK, I had decided to sell and take profits but happy hippy's advise kept my finger away from the sell button.
What is the morale of the story?
dont buy sell or hold on advise from a stranger.
I'm not sure if I missed the boat here, time will tell but I held much longer than I would have following the advise of local peddler.
Ps the guy may be genuine, but who knows... It is your own buy or sell button, we all seek/need some advise but please don't let these posts influence you to buy sell or hold longer that you would be comfortable with.
