It is fine to dislike a company, but posting slanderous lies is another thing. You should research what you say before you post it. It is obvious by your quote, âoeCharter is going out of businessâ that you did not do any research. Your entire post is an attempt to slander Charter. In addition, your statement that Charter is 1/20th of what it was two years ago is misleading. I am an investor with CHTR as one of my major holdings. I HAVE done extensive research on the company, and I would like to clear a couple of things with you. The first quarter 2003 revenues for Charter were 1.178 BILLION dollars. Fiscal year 2002 earnings were 4.566 BILLION. Charter has 14 Billion Dollars in debt. This is VERY manageable. Charterâ(TM)s stock dropped from a high in the lower twenties to 80 cents due to a grand jury investigation and a call on this debt. Charter has spent the last few months reorganizing the company and restating their earnings. In doing this, the stock has been stabilized. Charter stock is now up 450% from its lows, and rumor is that the grand jury investigation will be concluded in the next few weeks or months. All of the information that I have submitted in this post is available on any website that post information on publicly traded companies. I would like to see a link to the website that informed you that Charter was going out of business. I invested in the company when it reached $1.20 and my investment has gained 298.33% in two months. Charterâ(TM)s stock is one of the best performers in the market. As any investor will tell you, the performance of a stock is a direct reflection of a companyâ(TM)s health. The grand jury investigation drove down the stock with fear of bankruptcy. Now that there is no fear of that, the stock is going back up. As you can see, your post was just an attempt to bash Charter because of a personal bad experience. I know people that have had bad experiences with them. I know people (myself included) that have had good experiences with them. With a company the size of Charter (third largest cable company), there will be good and bad experiences. I have had Charter cable and high speed Internet for years without a problem. The problem is that you never hear from people that are happy. If you want to complain or bash a company that is fine, but please do not post lies.
