"He does pretty well for the mowing the lawn crowd to just take general investment advice questions on the air. The problem is many of us like to hear more and he is losing that part of his audience as he is avoiding talking about things he might turn out to be wrong on, ESPECIALLY now that he is on a major cold streak. We listen to MANY shows for the variety of opinion and the way he is hedging himself is making listening less useful." I guess you want the broadcast to be an adjunct of the newsletter, but the fact is that his market timing advice on the radio has been a big winner. If he had done what you advocate, many more people would have been hurt by the newsletter blunder. On that basis alone, I can't see the case for changing his policy. That would amount to replacing a successful investment strategy with an unsuccessful one.
