I'm sure that this is not a fair game. Somebody is fairer than the others....PVE covered most of the short position, and I am sure that someday people will short it again.

My own opinion is that there is not a lot of money to be made shorting the oil and gas trusts at this point. The easy money was made in the last 9 months of 2001. ------------ Care to provide us with the posts showing these easy and superior gains. To date with the documented evidence from your posts we see gains in the less than 1% to 2% area, and or, losses from shorting. As I have shown in earlier postings. Funny that these number less than a handful over the 9 month period. Now many of these trusts have been and still are paying out in the 1% or higher monthly area. So what you claim as superior results is and has been shown to be no more than what joe average would have been collecting each month had he stuck it out and accumulated. As with all the facts presented you will no doubt just ignore this latest bit of REAL FACT. ----------------------------- ----------- Another bit of info to burst your bubble. Seems ERF fell a bit today. Funny how a superior shorter like you would miss that. That would or could have boosted your gain on the venture to close to 4%. But since you closed out the other day as per your posting. Another prime example of just how good you really are. ------------
