Ladies ! Go start your own thread to have this debate. This was supposed to be a thread about the action against short sale advocates.
Seriously? For years TSLA was the most shorted stock on the board doesn't qualify as an example? That Tesla demonstrated year over year its ability to meet its projections and more, yet hounded by shorts isn't an example? You picking the wrong fight buddy! Shorts lost their shirts trying to demonize the company to profit from a falling stock price.
That's good. Shorts keep the markets honest though. Well whatever. People are entitled to their opinions right? In the eye's of many TSLA is just a car company with a few ancillary dreams. Car companies have historically traded at PE's less than 10. And that's during a good year. I'm not taking sides, you know I like TSLA, but as I said, there was hardly anything criminal going on. Now, if someone hacks their systems so that cars roll thru stop signs or whatever... and buy puts on the damn thing or short the stock... that's another thing. But just bitching that a stock is overvalued af, while TSLA may be the poster child, it's certainly not the first.
As I said, there's a probable need for professional shorts, but a greater need to send the feds in to check their practices for malfeasance. Nikola is still on every one's mind, and is the poster child for the Citrons of the world. But there are plenty of unacceptable manipulations from those seeking to profit from a falling stock price.
Found the theme song for your thread... "Those who know what's best for us, Must rise and save us from ourselves. Quick to judge, quick to anger... Slow to understand. Where ignorance and prejudice and fear walk hand in hand."
%% And that is the away capital markets should work. Cant really blame gov on FB big problems. WSJ radio[Gordan Deal + Jennifer Kchingga], noted today FB big problems; [1] chewed by competition[2] losing customers[3] king type FB structure with M Zuckerburg. [Also i noticed big problem with censorship........................................................................................] They said FB could go out of business long term, most likely right , i try not to do much business with them]
