Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi
After reading the most recent Q about AD, I am left as an investor realizing information was in the hands of National before widespread and publicly available.
Please comment on why it is appropriate for NA to have information that was unavailable to regular investors.............and who may have been buying today and therefore lost money. (with full awareness would not have been buying)
What is an investor to think about management who did not reveal publicly before revealing to at least one analyst? From my understanding this is illegal. There have been documentaries written on this form of behavior.
Thanks

Q: Just a follow up to my question about the drop in Alaris today. So an analyst at NA drops his/her target price and the stock drops 10%? Was there any specific reasoning behind the downgrade and where would an investor get that information? If there is no fundamental change to the companies business, why would investors sell out of their positions? I have heard portfolio managers comment that they don't pay any attention to "price targets" and base their decisions on their own analysis and the fundamentals of each company they invest in. As you have said before, there are always 2 sides to each trade but it seems a lot of people react to an opinion and sell before they done any checking. Your comments please.
