No Kidding – Hope Is Not a Viable Investment Strategy for Twitter

I just about fell out of bed last week when I rolled over to scan the first of hundreds of headlines I look at when my day starts, and saw this from IBTimes:
… ‘Hope Is Not a Strategy’ for Twitter
Not that I’m surprised somebody else finally caught on and called the one-time media darling for what it is, only that it’s taken so long for everybody to glom on to what we’ve been discussing since the company IPO’d in 2013… and used almost the exact language I have to describe the situation since.
But, there’s something else you should know.
It’s a shocking ‘secret’ that most investors will never understand: The numbers have never lied, and when it comes to much bally-hooed companies like TwitterInc. (NYSE: TWTR), they never do.
That’s what we’re going to talk about today.
As always, I’m going to give you a viable alternative and suggestions on the tactics you need to make the jump.
