OK FOLKS, as far as I'm concerned, you've got this thread. It's all yours so good luck, just remember, the proof is in the pudding, so we shall see how you do with it.
Ask Frank P, I'm one of the original posters who pushed for the idea for SDII. Now that Frank P, thread moderator, does not participate on SI, and with the recent behavior on this thread, SDII is no longer any child of mine, I disown you.
The idea for SDII was to avoid exactly what this thread has now become, a battleground between personalities, a neverending grudge match between hostiles which has nothing to do with playing the market, and nothing to do with civil behavior either.
So with one exception, I am shaking the dust (and BS) off my shoes and walking away from this thread.
The exception is, I will only look back to see how well the thread does without iso's calls. Obviously not everyone here likes iso, but many folks were greatly enriched with his bull calls for the energy sector last winter and then the gold bull later this year.
While it would be unfair to give iso all the credit with so many good posters (formerly) here, it is also eminently unfair to bash a guy with such vindictive gusto who has made investors who followed his posts a great amount of money this year!
But "fair" has little to do with it, so I leave SDII to you.
Have fun, it's your party NOW, don't choke on the party favors.
