Bfree asked: "Is this a transparent attempt to have people believe that he "bought in" in Jan 2009 and didn't take a 6 year round trip to this point?"

Bfree,

Isn't there an old question about what a bear might do in the woods. 8^)

Bfree said: "After all bob brinker claimed this was the buying opportunity nearly 6 years ago and has never sold, indeed has called "buying opportunities" all the way down from 1575 to the 800s.

Bfree,

That is absolutely correct. When the S&P was at 1575, Brinker was bragging about the EIGHT mid-1400's buying opportunities that had taken place earlier. It's hard not to believe that he loves to gloat.

As you said, all the way down, he was calling new buying opportunities (he finally gave up from low-1200's to 752 and removed all of them). Then true to form, he got all puffed up about his low-1300's buying opportunity, so when the market returned briefly to the 1400 area, he was bragging about that one too.

But when he was bragging about the low-1300's, did he tell the audience about the mid-1400's call? Again, what does that bear do in the woods? LOL!
