This is the ATM thread, what ever your thinking "At The Moment".
Meaning I'd rather hear about the mechanics of the business, financial metrics, relevant and real news (not rumour), thoughts regarding use of cash, earnings potential of US market etc etc etc
As opposed to short term thinking of 'market dynamics'. Investing means understanding the business and it's long term prospects. If you're trading or timing the market you'd be more worried about market dynamics over 6-12 months.
Disc: I don't hold so have no vested interest. Making the decision as to whether to hold or not would be aided by some decent discussion re fundamentals.
I don't disagree that "Investing means understanding the business and it's long term prospects", although not in isolation. There are many other market and geo-political factors that should not be ignored.
Hence the old saw, 'do your own research' always applies. Have you done much research into ATM, and do you have anything to offer here, re fundamentals...?
PS. Personally, I always try to 'time the market'. You'd be a fool to rush out and buy at the top, as so many seem to do...
Oh bugger, I thought we had been able to rid ourselves of our recent racist contributor, only to have them pop up on HotCopper re-posting exactly the same garbage.
They seem to be following Beagles lead, get banned here so post over there.
Take the hint people, if your banned from one forum, please don’t go and post the exact same crap somewhere else.
For the record, I only posted one post on Hot Copper to point out pending possible issues with MSCI rebalancing. Coutts, you and others needn't worry about me trying to help others on stocks I don't own any more. I simply can't be bothered with all the negativity that comes with that. Some will be pleased, others disappointed...it is what it is, after 10 years plus my days of guard dog duties on shares in which I have no financial interest are over. I'm 60 this year and simply do not need or want the drama anymore.
Good luck to holders of ATM shares. Also for the record, I have sold all my Kingfish warrants and cleansed myself from any exposure at all to ATM.
Oh, I saw a post about 'downgrades come in threes' etc etc, using the same profile photo, also called 'Beagles'. I apologise on that basis, maybe that wasn't you, perhaps someone is impersonating you on the HotCopper Forum.
Personally, I dont get much value out of negativity coming from posters who dont directly hold a stock. Plenty of them on HotCopper who dont hold A2 yet have a sell sentiment.
