consumerist.com has reported that one of the ways to beat the stock market is to buy companies with high customer satisfaction scores. It cites a published study whereby companies at the top 20% of the America Customer Satisfaction Index greatly outperformed the stock market, generating a 40% return.
You might want to take this into consideration the next time you want to buy into equities.

I would kinda agree.
It is natural, cos when people like what they buy, they tend to stick to it. And when they stick to it, other people will wonder why and ask about it. This in turn will generate interest which will more or less prompt them to buy as well.
Once they experience the good returns, they will also stick to it. The cycle repeats.
So it is sort of an attraction that is unspoken.

I think you're right about the unspoken rule, but like many unspoken rules, sometimes it remains hidden and someone has just gotta point it out again.
