"They only use words like this to scare people into selling while they buy shares."

They have been bashing for quite a while now.  If your statement is accurate, they must have about a bazillion shares by now.  I never understood how any investor would buy shares, then bash the stock.  If they are bashing to lower the price, then why not continue bashing until the stock is at quad-zeros and buy then.  At some point common sense would think that after they bought, they would then want the stock to start increasing, and at that point start pumping the stock.  I have not seen that yet.

And at this price, given common margin requirements, I just can't see any retail investor shorting PNCH for profit.  No, I think they do it because its personal with them.  They can't help themselves.  They are obsessed with ruining Steve and his company because they lost money in the past.  Its vindictiveness pure and simple.
