A belief that people should be courteous? Especially if that someone is coming to a place like this and speaking as if they're giving an honest unbiased opinion

A belief that people should be courteous? Especially if that someone is coming to a place like this and speaking as if they're giving an honest unbiased opinion when in reality they have an ulterior motive.
>Disclosing whether or not someone holds a position in a stock they are discussing is unethical in a professional setting, but this is not a professional setting.
Maybe you could tell me why you believe it's unethical in a professional setting and what the difference is in a more personal setting like this forum which makes it not unethical anymore.
- jacquesm 9y agoBecause (1) you can't check and (2) the SEC doesn't care and (3) there is such a thing as privacy.
- frgtpsswrdlame 9y ago1 and 2 aren't ethical reasons and 3 applies just as much in a professional setting. I'm asking you to engage on an ethical level. Why is it unethical to not disclose your holdings in a professional setting?
- jacquesm 9y agoYou're wrong about 3. That's where the SEC makes a difference. Anyway, I don't think I'll be able to change your mind on this no matter how much time I put in so I'll just wish you good luck with your crusade.
