> His long picks suck, and his short picks suck even more.
Uh, lets see....
AMAT, BT, AXP, NVLS, COST, INTC, to name just a few on the long side, in which I shared nicely.
CCSI, ZITL, MCHM, ZONA and many others on the short side.
Did he have wrong picks. Yes? Did I avoid them all through my own research? No. Did I have plenty of bad ones without his help? Yes. Does everybody else? Yes. Do you? Yes. Unless you are a complete liar.
> are you saying that one may listen to what he has to say, but must do their own research to avoid getting burned?
I believe this to be true with regard to any advice received from anybody. I don't feel sorry for anybody who is stupid enough to take advice from a BB and act on it.
> when do you lemmings take him to task?
Why should I? He hasn't done anything to offend me. Sometimes he makes picks I don't like, and I ignore them. You might do the same. I'm not in this for the argument, I don't fall in love with stocks and I don't feel offended when Bill feels differently about something than I do. I'm happy to disagree and move on. You might live a more productive life if you did the same.
> your king has no clothes.
I'm an American, and I don't have no king! Just a bunch of elected officials who I'm happy to kick out of office when they piss me off. Same true for stock gurus.
