"am not part of the "in" croud on this board "
There is no "in" crowd on this forum. Everyone is treated equal as far as I can see. What we "do" try and achieve is a posting of the facts. Sometimes we as investors view facts in a different light. Thats fine, we are all entitled to our opinions. Sometimes when one of us posts facts on a stock that others are holding they take it as bashing. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Often reality sucks in the real world.
I have not seen one person on this forum thats wants to see someone lose money on one of these McFaulds Lake stocks. I personally want to see each and every participant on this forum make money on their stock picks. That is the reason I try and post facts. When facts are posted it gives everyone a chance at making an informed opinion on the stocks they choose to buy. However, no one is telling you not to buy a stock that the facts are posted on.
At times if I hear a rumour that I believe to have reasonable chance of being true, I try and share it with the forum here. Anyone can choose to ignore it, or take action from what I post. Always, remember, a rumour with no facts is nothing but a rumour. So treat it as such..a rumour. I am buying a double load of NOT today, because of rumour of #2 anomoly hit. Time will be the judge.
