Math says: "According to what people have written about his answer, he referred to taking some QQQQ out of the model portfolios earlier in the year. My guess is that he expected people who were still holding some from 2000 - 2001 to understand that they should take a similar percentage off the table at that time. It would have been better if he had explicitly stated that when he made the recommendation, and the honest thing to do in answering the caller's question would have been to state that he meant that to apply not only to the model portfolios, but also the shares he recommended buying in 2000-2001." In Brinker's April Newsletter he said NOTHING about the QQQQs not in the portfolios purchased in 2000 that many have claimed were totally a separate type of investment and Brinker would tell you when to sell those. Indeed here is what Brinker said in that ACT IMMEDIATELY bulletin in Oct 2000. "We recommend MARKETIMER subscribers with aggressive objectives invest 30% to 50% of existing CASH RESERVES in the QQQ shares in order to exploit this opportunity. Also, we recommend subscribers with conservative investment objectives invest 20% to 30% of CASH RESERVES in the QQQ shares in order to take advantage of this opportunity. MARKETIMER will provide follow up guidance for this short-term opportunity in regular monthly editions, and, if necessary, in follow up bulletins." Now Math, you can't kid a kidder and you realize that Brinker is not giving any "follow up bulletins" . You realize that Brinker is not going to close out this trade like a man of integrity would. You realize that Brinker is devious in having placed those QQQQs in all of the model portfolios in early 2003 and pretends to the entire world that is the only QQQQs he has ever recommended. That phone call proves it. The man asked precisely about the 5 yr old QQQs. Brinker cut him off and went on and on about "cutting the QQQs in our PORTFOLIOS" back in April.. The man wanted that guidance as promised in Brinker's lie above in the QQQ bulletin. You know that it is a lie now. You know that Brinker is NEVER going to "provide follow up guidance in regular monthly editions or follow up bulletins". Brinker is dishonestly hiding the whole trade and pretending he invested the same money twice--the QQQ debacle "never happened" is the stunt he is pulling. There is NOT ONE SINGLE WORD about doing anything different with QQQs except those in the model portfolios in the April Marketiming scam rag. I should not be surprised that you would alibi for Brinker yet again claiming you "guess" he really meant to take the same percentage out of those 5 yr old QQQs in that April newsletter. Anyone with a brain, knows what Brinker is up to. He's HIDING FOREVER the reccomendation to use up to 1/3 of a portfolio to buy 80 $$ QQQs in 2000. He never intends to give specific advice or take responsibilty for specifically admitting to closing out that huge losing position. You know that as well as I do. To hem and haw otherwise is route of a shill for a charlatan.
