rza,
thank you, yes, I remain neutral mainly because I have not been a shareholder for over a year now. I can clearly see the pros and cons and in my opinion, as a long term fundamental value investor, it is critical to see clearly and have vision into both the positive and the negative.
Often difficult to see it is for various company stories and stocks but one must make it a point to come up with reasons to buy, hold and sell and then argue those points among one's own perspective of the company, stock and industry over time as the stock fluctuates and the fundamental story changes.
IMO any of whom engage in daily 24/7 nonsense ranting and raving and the themes and arguments are extremely one-sided, it becomes clear that individual must have an agenda, for if they do not then the only alternative explanation for the one-sidedness is that that individual has been overcome by one of the extremes, whether it be extreme bullishness or extreme bearishness and the opines coming from such a close-minded perspective does not often offer new insights or actually helps new investors and followers of a company story. The real truth can only be found in the difficulties of the middle ground, the valuable debate can only occur in the neutral ground where there are always pros and cons to be weighed. If an investors or traders mind already has been made up about a company/stock long ago and the company/stock continues to change and evolve but their perspective does not change to weigh the data points and developments which come to alter the reality of the company/stock over time, then they cannot adapt to the realities of the present and therefore cannot possibly have any vision into the future.
Difficult to see the future is.
