I'll address as many fallacies in your post as I can, if I miss one or two it's because I'm a bit busy today. I believe that Bob has held onto the QQQs because he has had, for over a year, no idea whether they were going to go up or down. I believe that he thought the bear would be short and he has been surprised by both its severity and its duration. I never pretended that Brimelow addressed the BJGroup in his article. I said, very clearly, that he should have addressed it because he was inaccurate saying that Bob didn't really participate in the QQQs. You need to read more carefully Richard. That point was quite clear. Whether a person lies directly or by omission (I believe Bob has done both by the way) makes no difference to me. A lie is a lie. I discuss the truth about Bob. If that damages his reputation, that's his problem not mine. He has had every opportunity to make ammends to the customers he wronged and to come clean about his incompetence. I have not heard Bob setting the record straight about what he has done. Has he come clean on his actions on his discussion boards, his QQQ failure, his resetting of the QQQ trade, his UTEK connections, his riding down equities as a buy and holder, his failure to put all his advice into his portfolios yet using his portfolios to advertise his advice, his abusing of his customer's trust? When has he come clean about these issues on air? I am not saying that he changed his mind about sidestepping a bear if he saw one coming. I am saying that he didn't see it coming but now takes kudos for supposedly having fled to cash and bonds in 2000. That is lying.
