Why the f**k did you gamble so much on a stock you didn't know much about...

In his defence, that shit can happen to any investor on a bad day with decent capital, knowledge or not

It's only the inverse of success stories. The alternative outcome would have him asking himself why he didn't put more into it!

talking to someone last night and they mentioned that some companies pay people on Hot Copper to talk it up. and other inside trading shenanigans. and the annual report says the MD has 67mil shares given to him as options. the other directors are on decent money, but mostly made of options, so if price doubles (eg, 2c to 4c) their wage essentially doubles.

 

Also, saw a ford XRT ute 4WD drive thing on the monash yesterday. bullbar, muddflaps, 20' antennas, numberplate: IWNTVB

And yes didn't put a stop loss on it :(

Sigh. We have been through this. That means you only get 2c

It's penny stocks m12

This seemed quite obvious I would have thought

Companies do all kinds of shit and get away with it. ASX is a toothless tiger. There are paid downrampers on hotcopper too. A couple of guys on the 88E forum who spend all day shitcanning the share but never invest in it and you have to wonder why they do that...either bored trolls or it's their job. Doesn't make that much difference though; the market makers have way more influence than HC will ever have on a share price. Evidence of this is a lot of the posts on HC are asking why this and that occurred, lamenting an unforeseen price drop etc. It's rarely introspective discussion of trading behaviour.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
