People always ask why bashers show up on message boards with seemingly no interest in owning shares. Rarely is a basher someone with an ax to grind with the company. No, bashers are stock manipulators who prey on weak hands to drive down the price of stocks in order to buy low and flip for quick profits. As the stock rises, most will disappear or move on, at least temporarily until they see opportunity once again. That is their sole motivation for bashing.
