Well, Greg - I came out and said similar things months back and was rudely attacked by Puff as the great defender of Kimberly ...as if Kim couldn't defend herself. I also got plenty of pm's in support of me and against Puff and his language and general persona. Funny though, how many of those supporters turned around and then made nice nice with Puff when they thought they could make some $$$ off him. So no such thing as loyalty here on SI land. I have nothing against Kim except that she would put out stocks that were bought up in advance by her "select" few, and then they would sell them and not tell anyone. Everyone would ask for updates and no response assuming Kim was away. But then, lo and behold, she would appear ignoring all questions in order to put out another stock that she and her "select few" had just bought. Then she would pat herself on the back for the winners but disappear for the losers. Sadly, we all have losers and there is no shame in it. I resented that so many people were being ignored and just left holding the bag. Boy did I get slammed for even suggesting a criticism. It seemed to me that she was always there after the fact saying what she had done -- like selling at the top.

Well, she is certainly an astute trader and I just think -- as I said at that time -- if she is the thread guru she had an obligation to her followers whether the news was good or bad. And it seems sad that she had such great insight into the market but decided to share it after the fact with "her" thread, while giving the information to her "select few" -- some of whom do not have the credibility that she carries. And her reasoning -- why post, because she knows that her little buddies post frequently and would spread the word. I never read once that "Kimberly said" the market was in for a crash. Of course, people like Puff seem to like to take full credit --
