My recommendations at TP. Well, Rea has destroyed many of the logs, though the chat stated that they were publicly available. In fact, today I wrote Berber and Moor defense counsel, citing what happened to Andersen for destroying evidence, and warned of a possible motion for sanctions granting default judgment based on this egregious litigation misconduct. I can tell you that I remember many recommendations I made. One of them was to short all biotechs in March, 2000, before they crashed. Another was to short RMBS when it issued PR that sent the stock rocketing in afterhours trading from 400 to 440. I also called a buy rec on that stock that CNBC said had a 1,000 target (will find the name in due course), it went from 75-120 in about 20 minutes, then I said sell and short, it crashed to 30-40, if memory serves me well. I also stated here in my own site's name, in many ways risking my and my site's analyst reputation on one call, to sell all long-term NASDAQ holdings on September 21, 2000, at 4,000, before the Naz crashed to 1200. I was widely ridiculed for that recommendation.
