Jean,

I don't go over to the cesspool that is the Stockhouse Board any more, so I can't address the effect of that bashing, but my guess is the effect is fairly minimal. The basher agenda is so clear, that it doesn't scare many investors.

As to the "bashing" I've seen on this board - I would say it has had virtually no effect on the share price. Certainly, bashing on Agoracom would not be a reason for a long to abandon his/her position in a stock. To call it "bashing light" would be to overstate it!

There is a lot of trading going on with NOT, though, and that surely materially affects the share price.
