Funny how you want to focus on the "Act immediately" for eight years and completely ignore the "for those interested" phrases.

Queen under many of it's incarnations tries to absolve Brinker of blame for the singular worst and most careless financial advice I've ever seen for such a large percentage of a portfolio.

This person under just one of many aliases uses this approach to blame the people taking the advice of Brinker and without showing the phrase in the context of the bulletin act as though that phrase is an out for Brinker. How silly and how telling just how desperate the mafia is to shuddup talk about this guy on the internet.

Under one of the many incarnations the person posting as Queen settles on that phrase to the exclusion of the rest of the claims in that ACT IMMEDIATELY bulletin. How many people do you know who would NOT BE INTERESTED IN making "20% OR MORE" in just TWO TO FOUR MONTHS with 1/3 of their entire portfolio in an investement their advisor doesn't even feel he needs to mention "risk" , "exit strategy" "a downside" "a price" "a date"? Reading the hubris I think anyone would come away (if they trusted this guy as many had been lulled into doing) thinking it was a slam dunk as Rumsfeld might say.

I believe another shill gave three or 4 claims for how "he" handled this advice and each time made it a trivial item --the only thing like Queen he was caught posting under various screen names and telling 4 different stories all widely varied about how he took or ignored this advice --obviously to minimize the author's responsibility.

Perhaps comparing the multi alias poster (who denied it and was CAUGHT) now posting as Queen to the information ministry of Germany in the 40s is a little strong. But the idea that if you tell a big lie often enough they will believe it seems to be at the heart of the "for those interested" alibi.

See if you think those 3 words are the key to this absurd advice?

"MARKETIMER is projecting a significant countertrend rally which is expected to be led by the Nasdaq 100 Index. We expect this rally to persist over a period of approximately 2-4 months, and to generate Nasdaq gains in excess of 20% from the vicinity of the recently established Nasdaq closing low point.

We view this projected Nasdaq rally as a significant trading opportunity for MARKETIMER subscribers seeking potential short-term capital gains. Our clear vehicle of choice for this opportunity is the Nasdaq 100, which is traded on the American Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol QQQ.

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.<br />
MARKETIMER will provide follow up guidance for this short-term opportunity in regular monthly editions, and, if necessary, in follow up bulletins.

We recommend subscribers interested in taking advantage of this recommendation act immediately."
