Correct, I changed my mind.

I know all about Goldie's record, and have stated several times that I believe that this is the first time that I am on the opposite side of a trade (which, by the way, he lied about, clearly without checking the facts).

There is no doubt that AREM is a good short today. Goldie's problem, then and now, is that he 1) decided to short at much lower levels, 2) made the short very, very public, and 3) imo, has not done his homework on AREM - or is afraid to admit publicly that he MAY have been wrong.

I guess the real issue here is that not only is Goldie a pompous bloated windbag, he can't admit to the slightest failure in a public forum. Even A@P, who was (is) also ordinarily an arrogant SOB, frequently admitted at the very least that he entered a short too early.

Perhaps, perhaps not. We don't really know, do we? Just as Goldie had no clue as to my financial circumstances with the usual BS about 'odd lots'. He was quite mistaken, by the way.
