Ha Ha! Funny observation Richard! If Bob does read this (I doubt it) he would get a big kick out of Tim B and others who, in spite of their apparent disgust for him (Brinker), continue to listen to his show.

The funny thing is that when Brinker accepts praise for getting people completely out of the market, the Brinker-bashers scream bloody murder about it. Then when the conversation turns to QQQ, suddenly it's "Oh, you have to count him as being 100% in cash" so that they can assess him the maximum possible damage from the QQQ calls. That is a load of crap. I can prove it too. Posted earlier today: suite101.com Why do you continue to post such BS? You, at times, appear to be an intelligent fellow. Does he pay you? Or is your ego such that you can't admit that you were fooled in the past? Kirk

when Brinker accepts praise for getting people completely out of the market, the Brinker-bashers scream bloody murder about it. Then when the conversation turns to QQQ, suddenly it's "Oh, you have to count him as being 100% in cash" Well I want to be fair to Brinker. I just believe that his actions over the last 3 years have shown that he's at least as lucky as he is talented when it comes to timing the market. But if you want to set the standard to be Brinker's exact words then you'll have a tough time applying this rule. Brinker forces followers to indulge in escapades of reading between lines, interpretation of generic statements and generalizations on top of generalizations. Brinker sets the double standard and others are forced to evaluate him in terms of the double outcome.
