I think the key point is that Bob is inconsistent as he remains to this day. He calls it a mania but invests in it anyway. He says it's a casino but invests in it anyway. He calls it overpriced but invests in it anyway.

Today, he's holding on to a still substantial position in the NAS100 while thinking that the market is historically over valued and that we're in a CTR. He sold out of the QQQs but bought back in immediately. Why didn't he just stay out?

It's curious. He's hedging a lot which runs counter to my understanding of market timing. I would have to say he's only partially a market timer, partially a long termer and not at all a trader.

Yeah, that TEFQX was really a bummer. Guess Kevin Landis wasn't as much of a magician as people thought.

So, in order to make Bob look as bad as possible, you're going to buy into pretending that he didn't recommend it until March?

As if he needed any help!
