At the time of my purchase of GSH, I told the boss of a small Chinese insurance company in Chinatown, New York.  He put all his money in AOL. I told him  AOL was a lot more risky and asked him to sell.  I told him GSH was a value play and it would not go bankrupt. Plus its dividend was a bit higher than bank deposit. Later I was glad to learn he had sold it. It was $49/s then. He did not buy GSH.  During 2001,I told every one I know to buy and hold GSH when the subject of investing came up. A few bought it but could not hold.  Most did not bother to pay attention.  It was a boring stock. I explained to them that there was something good about being not trendy.
Now I have learned not to recommomend any stock.
Homework! If you dig you more likely get closer to the truth.
 
What a coincidence!

                    Exactly! You can tell people what you have, but never recommend
