You did take the time to reply and I admire that. You have a better grasp on and edge in such views - this I applaud and sincerely hope works out for you.
I don't understand why my holdings are important to you - what does that have to do with anything? Further more I am unaware of myself constantly bringing up the fact I sold out a few months back.. you seem to mention this more than I ever have..
Regardless, the way I write seems to make you feel as if I am talking down to you and other mere retail investors. I am a retail participant. If I was stacked up to the eye balls in cash I certainly wouldn't be wasting my time arguing pointless semantics on a forum. I enjoy the discussion, and I write in a certain way - I invite you and anyone else who shares that feeling to add me to their ignore lists.
@dbd25
Literally none of the questions you've asked is any of your business. Add me to your ignore list if you don't like what I have to say.
As you're fond of bespoke metaphors and similes I thought of one worth mentioning. Paulie in an episode of the Sopranos has a great line: "In my books you get points for staying out of the cann"
If you're so content with participating in what has become a support group for holders in a stock that's working its way through a short campaign, and determined to argue with anyone who doesn't share your views and doesn't hold the stock, then I've got nothing to learn from you.

Hey penny - interesting you point out the black and white and emotional thing. Being an emotional being, I can be emotional. I try to balance the things I think and say and be objective, but I can't always avoid that human element. Something I am practicing is to be a glass half full person now. Cynicism has been a trait I let fester in my younger years and that largely changed when I became a parent. This week I've had an immediate family member go into intensive care and had to really carry the load in terms of remaining optimistic for those around me. Being around that kind of pain puts a negative stock position into perspective.
