I have been a basher on a stock before...Shocker I know. I did it because I lost money on a stock that was owned by the same ppl. I was accused of being short and my presence was said to be a good thing because that meant that something was about to happen. Of course none of that was true.
Sometimes people are just assholes. I have never shorted a stock. People have all sorts of reasons for bashing. I really don't care what they are. I would just like to see the filings.
