richard, in hindsight, the 60% call was pretty good. however...

1. he MISSED the last 20-25% up by selling early. that is substantial when you are near 100% invested.
2. bob said he would avoid a bear market if he saw one. therefore, his "indicators" didn't see this bear.
3. he suggested aggressive investors dump 40,50,60% (whatever HUGE number it was) into overvalued fluff qqqs w/o a thought of valuation and prospects (ie, gambling - and he LOST BIG).
4. he bought a b2b fund near the absolute top 5. bob calls other people names for missing markets moves (bull market b2b bobby wishes he'd never been born - or at least those qqq callers had never been born! ;-).
6. bob strategically avoids being accountable for his own STUPID calls.

the 60% out of the market call was pure luck, imho. if he had used any sort of analysis, he would have been out of the market much sooner. no way to justify those prices and repeatedly spoke out against the silliness in real time.

so, let's test the luck theory. he dumped a HUGE % of cash into them and LOST. he's missed how many CTRs since he said he could predict them?

the thing that really bothers me about bob is that he actually has folks hang p on people who want to discuss the TRUTH! i can hear bobby boy now...

"get to know the dial tone... you qqq loser! ha ha ha!" back to caller... "yes, i did take money out of the market right before the crash... how did you find out? really? thank ya, thank ya very much!"
