Relax - the knockers only come out when the sp is dropping. Notice how quickly they disappear when the sp is on the rise? Just like harlots in the morning when the sun comes out.

If the knockers come out when the SP is dropping...who would want the sun to rise??

Could this be a social behavioral definition of a knocker? .....A messenger citing what is happening in reality to people who want to believe otherwise..

Or perhaps a Troll with no skin in the game

Nope, that would be a bear, a knocker would be someone who gets their jollies from unnecessarily scaring newbies and generally just crapping on shareholders because they have ego’s big enough to think they can actually influence and down ramp the market, just pathetic really.

Aye, aye to that MAC. Typically as accurate as ever!!

Can I add ... IMO, a "knocker" is negative on a stock but doesn't have any factual evidence or credible reasoning to back up the negativity. I like Couta's name...they're "trolls".

And on the other side of the argument we have the Ostriches.

Plenty of ostriches on here..... snaps definition of an ostrich is posters who call other posters knockers simply because they are posting what the ostrich does not want to hear.

So that makes you a knocker then ........

Knock knock.
Who's there?
Ostrich.
Ostrich who?
Ostrich my arms up to the sky!


I believe that we are transitioning to anger. For the sake of constructive discussion it's probably more important than ever to leave emotions at the door. Right now nothing suggests the stock is grossly mispriced. We are where most analysts see it. A 15x forward revenue multiple can only be seen as a lot of confidence in continued growth. Those who believe that acceleration/slowing of growth is a foregone conclusion should wait for the next numbers update, I think.

Well said Casino. I think when people get emotional about comments on a stock it probably means they are over committed and should look at their investing methods and see if they really are in the right game. Also the term stock knocker etc is probably bandied around incorrectly. It should probably be "price knocker". Ie at these prices I am bearish on XRO. However if XRO was priced at $5 I would probably be bullish on XRO. I think XRO is a great company with a great product but at these prices will not buy as I think the market has overvalued and over hyped it. That is just my opinion. I may or may not be wrong and only time will tell. People that get affected by posters "knocking" or "hyping" a stock need to chill out. If you are convinced of your research/conviction what does it matter what some other random pseudonym has to say about that stock?
