Mama Bear, I notice you spent the good part of the last few days coming up with a rather inane list of how longs don't give credit to shorts who come up with successful calls. Here you are coming over to this board to bash on a day when the stock was up HUGE. Why? Did you feel the need to grow a little hair on that tiny chest of yours? As I have suggested to you, why don't you reverse all the descriptions on your list(long for short, up for down, you get the picture) on your list and see if you can recognize your own behavior and that of your colleagues? The main reason why you and your group don't get any credit for your picks is not that the picks aren't good (a very small percentage of the time). Rather it's because you and your group are just plain aho's. I have no objection to someone shorting. My compaint with you and your ilk is that you feel the need to come over to a thread and har-de-har, pump that tiny chest and raise the roof with your wonderful pick, throwing it in the face of those who have gone the other way. I'm not sure why you do it. You very rarely do anything original. Most of the time you just come to the defense of the guru(s) when the truth hits them. When someone points out that the supposed 110% right gurus are, in fact, wrong, you come up with some obtuse excuse. I really had a great laugh today reading your defense of a totally horrible short pick (ARIA). I follow so many threads where all you do is make up excuses for a botched pick by a guru. (Your argument is basically Gee it was the right pick for a two hour span on March 2, 1998. You are being nasty for concentrating on the 99.9999% of the time when the pick would lose you money.) Do you get paid for that or do you just have no life?
