Posts that used to look like cogent distillations of some of the most brilliant minds in economics have degenerated into semi-worthless parroting of thinkers and topics that border on irrelevant

my last four posts (before this one) each consisted of the name of a paper and the link to the paper. i don't think citing the name of the paper is "parroting;" it is simply providing a clue as to the paper's topic so those who are interested can peruse the URL while those who aren't can skip it. i don't really expect people who are unable to read articles longer than 500 words to be interested in such papers, but all those people probably have me on IGNORE already...

i kind of doubt you read these papers or even checked out the links. perhaps you should. in particular, you might want to check out the very fine one called "Equity Valuation Issues." on Smithers' site. then let me know about the "semi-worthless parroting."

the articles on Greenspan were directed toward Maurice, since he has commented many times on this thread about how great Greenspan is (while i of course think Greenspan is an idiot). i do not really care to get into an in-depth discussion of Greenspan (nor do i care to post on the subject on one of Maurice's threads), so i just posted the papers with their links. in the future, i will try to refrain from posting more Greenspan articles (and i would encourage Maurice not to provoke me to do so), since it is not entirely relevant to QCOM (except perhaps for Maurice) and honestly, the topic is not nearly as interesting to me as the general topic of equity valuations.

but i will continue to post thoughts and links to others' thoughts on subjects such as equity valuation and options expensing, which i consider relevant topics.

not that relevance to QCOM is any apparent requirement to 95% of the posts on this board (whether or not my own are included)...
