When visiting a HC forum with strong cultish following comprising largely of high stakes long term shareholders, one needs to be extremely careful not to get sucked in listening to their positive swan songs of only positive praise and endless spins.
If you do not subscribe to their positive views or suggest anything negative, you are immediately deemed a shorter. Anyone doing so is deemed a troll and the forum will try their utmost to destroy your credibility. The modus operandi of this forum is simply to keep sentiment strong and positive on the stock so the price can go higher, and leading FOMO driven new entrants to buy to push prices higher. Never mind if the stock's fundamentals have changed and turned for the worse, their rebuttals would always be to not acknowledge the bad news and continue spinning the 'good' news.
Shareholders who follow and believe everything that is said and expressed in those forums and never do their own due diligence and research have only themselves to blame when the reality of the situation could be further from their expressed unbridled optimism.
