To compare Warren Buffet to JD is ludicrous. Rather, they should be contrasted. Warren is very much a "pencil/paper" guy, disciplined, and a value investor who indeed believes in buying "low" based on the balance sheet and fundamentals for the long term and taking money off the table when over valued. I have not observed the "hype", self promotion and grandiosity seen with Dessauer. JD is certainly no WB.

Pointing out a few winners during the past 3 years is also a specios arguement since throwing darts would most likely have yielded the same results. Recognizing the current market where average Nasdaq and small caps dropped 40-50% and large caps 10-20, his selections noted in previous posts far exceeded the average decline. I find that JD often fails to view the whole picture regarding a stock and instead concentrates on or hypes a few selected details,entirely missing the reason and extent of vast stock movements to the downside.
