The second school of thought is when buying/selling company shares you are using a market place, therefore you are buying a piece of company assets via the market place and always governed by the market's valuation.
The "first school of thought" investors always get upset by various market behaviours ( Usually the behaviours which don't go their way)...should they be???..In practice no..because they should realise that buying shares in a specific company is really buying into that marketplace... therefore they will now and always be exposed and dictated by those market forces until they leave the market (sell).
Soooo...Couta welcome to world of the free market place, a place where everyone has their own opinions and reasonings and nature does it's thing by always oscillating (correcting) to keep that systemic equilibrium in place...a place like any other place on Earth ..ruled with a hen pecking order, the big fish have the power within the pond thereby are to be respected. They set the rules so do what they say or get eaten..but, for us small fish, life isn't too bad..eh?... there is a consolation prize that we do live within a democratic system where we can make ourselves feel important by freely expressing our small insignificant opinions without too much fear....but we have to observe all the happenings within our pond (market) and stay alert to survive and prosper..
A Fact of Life:.....Using the above statement..Within the grand scheme of all things within the Universe, it reasons, that Couta's posting opinions about his displeasure of hearing any negative postings (implied..curbing negative posts) is just as important as my post telling him to allow the market the freedom to express its individuals opinions and reasonings.....such is life..eh?
