m padley tells all

Oversold: They're a terrible company but we're their broker.

Overbought: We said sell it and it kept going up. Sorry.

High-risk buy: We are not responsible for your losses when you buy this corporate client on our recommendation.

Buy (on a small company from a big broker): We are about to do a capital raising.

...and on and on
