Wow. this just shows that I must be clueless then.
So, every single company from FTSE 100 down to AIM (there are chat boards for all of them) only get funding because of posters on chat boards, despite the majority of placings being closed to the very PI's who participate on these boards (and the multitude of other sources of funding that are available depending on the growth stage of any company). Sound logic there. So dumb of me to not see this before.
And the MM's check chat boards and move the SP depending on what posters say. Presumably all PI's must disclose to their provider that they have read a chat board before they are permitted to invest and the MM's will then move the SP accordingly? I must have missed that in the T's and C's when signing up.
I worked in Finance for almost 30 years and never knew this was how markets, or listed companies worked. All that time spent working with Fund Managers, Dealers, Analysts, Compliance, Brokers, FCA, etc and all for nothing. Silly me.
How do Pension funds, II's HNWI's, etc get around the 'Joey rules of investment', I wonder? Must be something dodgy.
Pray tell Joey, as your joined-up wisdom must surely be the holy grail of investment knowledge.
It's a Sunday miracle everyone. Praise the Lord!
