Hi Mad2,

Well, were I to be long some trashy BB stock, I'd claim this guy is nothing more than a shareshaker <g>, but I'm not into anything on the BB, so I still have the ability to discern wisdom from garbage when I read it...

The guy's arguments make a lot of sense. I wouldn't bet against him, though I do believe that, in theory at least, it's still possible to beat the market indices on the long side by carefully screening the stocks that one invests in, and thereafter keeping tight a watch on performance by trading in and out whenever the situation calls for it. Use stop/loss controls if necessary. It's okay to panic sell as long as you're the first one to panic...
