RE:RE:RE:Investors No Longer Want Common Ground, They Want To Destroy Good stuff Yasch. I think the epitome of it all was when hedge fund billionaire and convicted insider trader Leon Cooperman cried about the retail investor attacking wealthy people. What a bloody crook that guy is, incredible that he can still wield influence in the SM. I'd also put the big banks and financial institutions up there as far as manipulative behavior goes.
There is IMO a second level of corruption, that being the paid analyst. I don't think they have the means to physically manipulate with their own money but their word destroys speculation, the only thing the retail investor has to work with. Question is, are they credible? Too much money involved to think not. And the worst part of it, neither hedge fund or analyst needs to own a share.
Honestly sometimes I wonder what I'm doing here when I'm outgunned. Battleship vs a rowboat. I hate being at the mercy or whim of the big gunners. But I have to develop a feel, be my own computer and figure the algorithms of hedgers. Should only have to worry about company performance. Must be a good day to rant...lol
