My contributions are only useful if you find merit in them. I think we all know by know what's going on here between myself and the perma-bears. And yes back on April 5th I did seek out aggressive shorter posts to directly challenge them. I did so intentionally because at the time I was TEED OFF at the bashing and ridiculous suggestions of LU bankrupt and CSCO to $5. So I asked for it and I got it. Three weeks later I get no pats on the back. Maybe grudging respect but that's it. We know what my position is at least until the rate cut. I understand why bears would be nervous at this juncture as we may rally again tomorrow and most of the week. I know why they'd be angry and want to attack, criticize or bait me. I symbolize something they don't want to admit. But it doesn't mean I have to take it sitting down and not snap back when attacked. I'm not going to be some arrogant SOB's victim and whipping boy. Especially now. Any holes in my investment strategy I'll be the first one to study and admit. Since you're a bear I don't expect you to be sympathetic. On the contrary. But that's okay. We're all adults making decisions concerning how to maximize usage of our money. If you had wanted to go long this market you would have. Being bearish is your choice and someday again soon you may be right. Nothing personal unless I get personally attacked. And yes I believe a condescending lecturing post criticizing me for being stupid is a personal attack, whether it was meant to be or not. I asked a simple question and instead got insulted, teased and baited. The guy just sent me an F-you PM too with an aswer to my question so we know where he's coming from. Some of them can dish it out but can't take it. Some of them bait me but can't take it when I don't bite and pull them out of their boat instead. I don't mind being corrreted with sound factual advice. I just mind being jerked around with and denigrated.
