I couldn't agree more. Even the company name says a lot to me.
I don't see you as bashing or pumping really, simply revealing the numbers and what they mean and coming to a conclusion based on what you see. Nothing wrong with that.
I am neither a pumper or basher but when I see red flags all over the field I call them out even if I do, or did, own the shares of a company. If there are too many flags then I am a seller all day long.
Pumpers are when everything is great even when the house is burning around them. Bashers are the opposite. The house is on fire when it clearly isn't.
I prefer to see things before the house burns. If the house is not burning, the I will take a closer look to see if it will stay that way and if there's still no fire then I will likely take a position in the company.
