Adhominem Arguments
An Adhominem argument is defined as one that is directed at destroying the validity of a proposition, product, technology or service by attacking a person's character rather than addressing the rational flaws in the company's product or technology. For example, a CEO might be attacked because one of his or her shareholders had been involved in an unrelated shady deal ten years ago; thus, by implication, the reader takes away the idea that the CEO might be dishonest also. Or the Chief Financial Officer may have worked for a company that went into bankruptcy in the past, thus implying that the CFO had a direct responsibility for the bankruptcy and will repeat his or her mistakes in the present situation.

The above was taken from Dr. Geist's essay.

It's not important if he has ever been right about a specific stock's direction, up or down, in his entire life.

Is this paragraph a valid one, in itself?
