Mohan: You've changed the subject to your picks and your stocks. And all of a sudden want me to read YOUR record for three years? Are you Mark Moran or Bob Costantino? We were discussing those two in relation to the ESCI buys and now you are putting yourself into this. I wonder why?
I don't read your "picks" subject, don't know anything about you but what you posted here to me. I find these messages bizarre and irrational. Is it because you're doing a similar thing to them, that you feel threatened by my holding up the result of my buys on their recommendations? Perhaps you don't realize that my suspicions arose toward Moran and Costantino, not because of these results, all the stocks I've ever owned have gone down sometimes, but because of their reactions to my posting these results.
Personally I think it's a cop-out of some magnitude to demand that people read everything you ever wrote for three yeqrs. Why not since you were born? If you're making a current recommendation you should admit it and the consequences of buying at that time. Otherwise tell people only to buy when you first recommend, or not at all.
If you are recommening a buy on any stock, as long as it's in your "buy" recommendations, you should be considered to be responsible for any buys that occur from that time. Otherwise, you should tell people to only buy on the first day you recommend. Moran was claiming the same thing, in saying that if people buy on the day he recommends and buy everything he recommends they are okay. But the logical consequence is that no one should buy only SOME of the recommendations and no one should buy after the initial recommendation day.
In this case I bought all those that Costantino and Len recommended from Moran's picks of the year. A fair sample by most standards, and all were bought at a time Moran was still recommending them. While I never was recriminatory towards him for the results of the buys, I do post them, and will track them till year end, since he considered that to be a fair time frame for results -- even though Costantino was talking in terms of two to three month terrific returns on all of them.
Where you fit into this is a mystery to me, but you're the one spoiling for a fight here, and I suggest you take it back to your own subject. After all, I don't READ your subject and have no interest in your recommendations OR your record. So why are you posting it here, to me?
