maybe a shill post may not be. it's great to keep posting about the stock and keeping interest up, however the way i see it concerning the newcomers is when a bunch of high expectations are set every other day and then they don't come to fruition and the rest of the week is down or even sideways, that is the most disheartening and has more potential to scare someone away from being constantly let down rather than just sticking to the research and due diligence to keep spirits alive.. so it seems to me that within the dwindling arsenal from the hedge funds a big weapon would be to keep tabs on these expectations and then purposely blow them out of the water just to cause second guessing in the newcomers.... but they can't change the tangible research done by the smarter people in the group
