Pete, I really don't understand why Tim's price of ASND predictions bother you so much. Especially, since they were so close to reality last week. Why do you feel responsible for what other people do with their money. We have free choice, I believe. At least Tim put his you know what on the line. It's easy to check his record.
Also, I hope you are not comparing him to a baby sitting drug addict.
On the APM thread, we have a little contest every week where we pick a stock ( short or long ) and we compare results during the week.
To my way of thinking, if you object to Tim's predictions, you would also object to this harmless (IMHO) contest, because some gullible soul might take this as useful stock tips. Anyway, my basic point is that we should be as liberal as possible in allowing people to post whatever they want here as long as it pertains to ASND.
BTW, I agree that there's no place for foul language and personal attacks.
Also, just to toot my own horn a little bit. The final results from last week's contest haven't been posted yet, but I think I won by buying NSCP at the open on Monday and selling at the close on Thursday :-)
That came to over 30% profit in four days. However, in "real life",
I bought at 16 3/4 and sold some Feb 17 1/2 covered calls, so I only stand to make 10% in real live money. Come over some time and give us your best shot!
