Ike;
I think that you know me well enough, to know, that I would not attack you, Therefore, let us just review, without the need to defend, or pretend, honestly, how we can improve, our already outstanding thread.
You know, that I, like many others here, admire and respect your knowledge and Macro-ecomonic view. I know of no-one posting on SI that has the "big picture" view of all the world markets, politics, etc., that you do. That is your forte. But, as you have said yourself, here a few times-picking individual stocks isn't your specialty. This is why, it is helpful, to have Judy, Tim, etc., to do check them out.
I don't know Trader Tom, Kevin, Lisa or Don Sew other than by their posts. Each, one I believe has their own area of specialty. And, they are all different. As you have said Don was a great plus to this thread, we were richer and better informed with his contribution that without. I think the same can be said for the others.
From reading TT posts, over a year now, I have found him to be informed, knowledgable and a perfect gentleman. I personally did not see anything in his posts as an attack. We have lost many good contributors on this thread when really there is no need. We are not here to compete but to contribute. You started this thread and have contributed much and, as you have said, it is much richer because of different views and contributions of others.
You and I both, were keen on ASCEND when it was about $40, it is now about $24. 'Oh for a Kevin, Don, Judy, TT or Mohan to give an "I disagree" back then. We would be richer today (least I would).<G>
You are a fine trader you have my utmost respect, you know that, you also are a magnanimous host. Let us welcome these contributors here, as if guests in our home and grow richer by the expansion of our minds and hearts.
sincerely,
Ray P.S. You, me, TT and even Judy think this may be bottom, now we really need to hear from Mohan! <G> |
