<<<Martin, while I agree that the market has difficulty evaluating
development stage biotechs, Westergaard's view of the situation is
terribly simplistic and appears prescient only in hindsight. When
sitting on top of the next biotech rally, it will look completely
nescient.>>>

Andrew H.,

Greetings,

I think you would do well to look at Westergaards historical performance. It is a complete sham. Try reviewing some of his picks of the week that he claims are "must own stocks". Many have fallen more than 50% some 80%. If he had taken his own advice on his stock picks during the last year It looks like he would not be in the investment advice business -- try asking him for his performance record. Expect a longwinded rationalization. A monkey throwing darts at the WSJ would clearly outperform Westergaard.

Westergaard's company and other affilate companies are PAID to promote stocks, a question the SEC has called me about as I found some companiesa where he was paid in stock <according to the company's CEO>, which the SEC apparently frowns upon. Perhaps in a criminal way.

I guess the bottom line is this -- I have reviewed Westergaards past rec's. Look hard at stocks Westergaard promotes, I found a very disturbing trend that looked like the stocks would rally a little then crash shortly after he began promoting them. I would like to know if he propmotes stocks while he or persons he knows feeds the market stock. The stock price trend I saw seemed to support that idea.

Cheers Steve
