I ignore a lot or I'd spend 24 hours a day on here. I'm invested in MSB, that says enough. We all have to make our own investment decisions, right or wrong.

As for shorts all I can say is they were rampant on A2M. I suspect some made money somehow but at face value the biggest winners were buy and hold.

In terms of getting told what to do in a broker one-liner, no argument there. I've been put off by broker recommendations but I can't remember (ever) acting on one. I regard them all as self serving.

But you have to admit, there have been a few buy recommendations for MSB over the past 8 or so years, not many of them would have been particularly helpful to retail investors at the time...........
