>>>He has admitted that he was wrong about QQQ MANY TIMES<<<

Richard, he actually has claimed that "we" were wrong. No one knows who "we" are. Is it intended to include those who were snookered in on the trade? If so, "we" would like to know.

I was reminded tonight that people tend to use the syntactical "we" when they really mean "I" as an unconscious way to try to divert blame and obscure the truth. Another tactic is to keep tight lipped hoping that the publics attention span will be short enough that it will be forgotten and maybe go away. Yet another tactic is to squelch discussions that take you into areas that could allow an inference to the problem area (such as "no more opinions on short term moves"). And yet another tactic is to make style changes that shift the focus to areas of your perceived strength.

At the very least, there is a troubling pattern that has developed in the post QQQ Brinker. It could all be explained away to the satisfaction of a reasonable and fair-minded person. But the silent treatment doesn't do that.
