Hey Shorty, Nope it was a great call, I have to admit I never heard of ASW until I saw his post and if Orek were a decent person, I'd tell it to his face. Of course, he pretends to ignore me until he wants to tell me something went right for him. So - while you wannabees are kissing arse, look back a few posts when he first brought this one up. He did the same spiel on TTWO, which was another Greenberg leaker. (I made some substantial bank on that one and it was admittedly luck, but Greenberg has been harping on this one for months, short interest is huge in TTWO and I figured management would head him off at the pass at the final moment.) Look at the result, TTWO almost straight up from his call, with a bit of a tanker today. My point? We all make good and bad calls. Orek gets paid, I think, to make his calls so his should be better than the average SI poster. By trying to bully others and using WWF tactics, he invites retaliation and observers, perhaps governmental, that he might not necessarily want. When others give it back to him when he inevitably fails, as nobody is perfect despite claims of 110% success, the sheep come out and bleet his praises......... Anyway, it's a new year coming up so I'll say again, this was a great call, one of the best. On the other hand, VISG, INVN and TTWO were horrible recent shorts. Anyone who followed Orek's advice, probably got stopped out several times on each of those calls. Does that prove anything? Of course not!! So when a call is great, why go around bashing and when others do the same back, why cry Wolff? Happy holidays, RRUFFF
