me accumulating NITE? was going to wait till closer to earnings season. GURU is someone that sees something with a crystal ball, they don't exist, its a misnomer. I read 'popular' 2 threads on SI this weekend and felt that I was in 'cult land', a real turn off. No picks, no analysing stocks just self-aggrandizement.
This thread is a 'community thread' many good picks fly around I research and study for hours, I spent about 20 hours this weekend alone on newsletter, watch list and earnings calendar, if I were a guru wouldn't it just come to me in a vision? <gg> but when I hear a good pick from another I am the first to recognize it. I found PERI last week but didn't take the plunge and it ran away so I found VSVR, read the stats, like the rebound potential and got in.
Read this weeks WORTH magazine about the 25 influencial people on Wall Street.. They make about 50 million a year..but they don't write about themselves, others write about them, or read business week of 13th and read of the young visionaries who made PHCM, ETEK, EBAY into a reality, and are worth about 500 million, even those are not gurus, but they are people I profoundly respect. No less than I respect the young brothers that turned Silicone Investor into such a delightful and informative board..
But those that virtually 'demand guru status' and spend all weekend saying how they are the 'best' and the one and only.. its not the kind of people I'd associate with, let alone want to be grouped with. |
