I hate stocks.
Let's say you want to decide if now is a good time to buy, say, my company's stock.
|
|
Uh oh. According to this chart the stock seems like it's going down. Down sounds bad. Sell! Sell!
|
|
| |
|
But wait! In this news article it looks like the stock got hammered because of Wall Street's misunderstanding of our deferred revenue model, but actually the company reported record profits and revenues! Buy! Buy!
|
|
| |
|
But oh no! It looks like this analyst is saying that I should sell the stock because the company has too high a debt ratio. Sell! Sell!
|
|
| |
|
But oh wait! According to this chart, that analyst isn't as historically accurate as a bunch of other analysts who are actually saying that I should buy the stock. Buy! Buy!
|
|
| |
|
But hang on! According to this table, although there are 17 analysts who are bullish on the stock, there were 19 bullish analysts just a month ago! So the number of bullish analysts is shrinking. Sell! Sell!

So you see why the mattress is looking like an attractive place for my money these days...
