Vanni, you say:
"First, there is NOTHING random about the stock market. Forget about that."
and;
"No one, repeat, no one can predict the future. Once you start thinking you can, you are really in trouble. You had bad luck. "
My questions to you:
1)
These seem to be contradictory, could you explain ?
1a)
If there is NOTHING random about the mkt. isn't it systematic ?
1b)
Is bad luck random or systematic ?
2)
To qualify as "predicting the future" must one predict everything ?
3)
I know two children. One is gratefull, happy, energetic, & studies
hard. The other is hatefull, sloppy, & lazy. I know they are both
lucky in many ways, but I predict a brighter future for the former,
is that foolish ?
4)
You see a car headed for the cliff, going far too fast to avoid
disaster. If you predict injury for the occupants, should I call
you ignorant for not determining wich bones would be crushed ?
5)
Why are you here ? (on Market taught me)

Regards,

Ricardo
