Daddy, I never take it personally. But may I ask to straighten the record? Few months back I was positive on a little stock GATE trading at .5, it proceded first to 1.5 than to 2.5 (I bailed out at 2.375, prematurely as is my lousy habit), then it spiked at 3, where I turned negative. I do not fall in or out of love with stock, I try and see which will go up and which will go down.
On RMIL I spent few months back some major time with the "cavalry" on the net and could not bring myself to turn bullish on this company. Of course, since "nays" are not fun, I simply made my case for those interested to take their profits off the table. I have visited back these thread about once a month to see how was my prognosis, and in case it was wrong, to learn from my mistake. So far, my prognosis was relatively on the nose.
By the way Gate is not the only stock I was ositive on, but at these time, these are few and in between, here is a short list of my bullish one, COO, HAUP, THQI, AKSEF (longer term), ISELF (longer term). Very long term I am very bullish on WFR, VECO, CYMI, AMAT, CSCO and ASND (a very shor list), but all of these I have stated why I am currently bearish. For instance I turned bearish on VECO at 46, stating it could go to 32 and then 23 (and of course I was wrong, it dipped under 19). I turned bearish on WFR at 30, it is now 15 (and I still maintain it will have seen 100 before the end of 2000).
Thus Daddy, saying I have never anything good to say about a stock is misleading.
Now examine the list of stocks I had negative things to say on, NAMX, EUTO, OVIS, IPMCF, CTYS (this one dropped within a week of my sell recommendation and is now worth 1/15 of what what it was on the weekend I was asked to look at ity because of its fantastic PE of only 3. These are all in the threads here on SI, so you can go and check with the people on those threads.
How about a beer, now, all this talking got me to be a little thirsty.
Merry christmass and happy holidays to all.
