He certainly sounds like he knows what he is talking about; however, his information is woefully out of date and his bias is obvious. If anything, these shortcomings render his posts meaningless as the market trades ahead not behind.

To Peter Y. Hsing's post Thanks for your kind post. I do appreciate the balanced feedback. I would caution EVERYONE who reads these stock chat boards. Remember to do your job. Read and take what you can from here, but also corroborate it with OTHER data elsewhere. Read the articles and product manuals, contact resellers for the product and talk to them. Speak to some customers etc. It's all part of the DD process. In this early market some of the best places to do great DD is at the computer shows, not just the FCTCs but also other storage, SAN, or network related shows. Visit and chat with your favorite vendor and their competitors all on one place.. The one investement exercise I was involved in was in a penny stock that went sour, and I didn't know anything about the market, and nothing about the company. I just went with the "flow" of a stock chat board and lost all of my initial investment. This information is just one informational source. This is true of someone who enthusiastically encourages one stock here as much as it is true of someone else who enthusiastically discourages the same stock here. It's all data, it's up to you to find other ways to measure the value of it.
