Dija said: "He experimented with ONE (1) counter-trend rally and it failed miserably."

WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! There was more than one, Dija.

<<Some here have said he's learned not to try short term timing and I think that is not a valid conclusion.>>

--I thought you agreed with me when I said that I believed the QQQ call was a TA experiment that failed.

I do... Since when does failure prevent him from attempting to do it again, especially if he needs a sales tool to drum up business?

Remember, I WARNED people before the QQQQ disaster that his past history had other failures that were not disclosed and that full knowledge of those failures might lead most to NOT put 20 to 50% of cash reserves into such a foolish trade.

The rest of your post is noise because you missed my main point.

"--I don't see how anyone could make MORE of an effort at discrediting brinker than you, stockalot and honey are doing."

You should stop wasting so much of our time with your hyperbole. It adds zero to the discussion. Heck, I could easily counter with "I don't see how you can spend so much time defending someone you once said is a miscreant."

"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. 'Who controls the past' ran the Party slogan, 'controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'" ~George Orwell in 1984, Book 1, Chapter 3

Dija in apologizing for Brinker touting a stock in which he had an apparent conflict of interest and never disclosed it even though he had UTEK as his ONLY BUY during the greatest tech rally in history in which UTEK was in a tiny minority that failed to participate says:

"--Sometimes the simplest explanation is the best. You are weaving a tangled web. The more likely reason, imo,is that he was convinced by UTEK management that the stock was a good buy."

I agree that the simplest explanation is often best. But the simplest explanation here since Brinker NEVER once disclosed in his newsletter while touting UTEK as the only stock out of 6000 to buy in the late 90s--that UTEK was paying him--is that Brinker was touting UTEK BECAUSE they were the ONLY company paying him.

After all we have all seen that Brinker under his alias has been shown to be quite dishonest. We have seen that he is singularly focused on Brinker's bottom line. Ergo the "simplest explanation"--Brinker touted UTEK as the only buy cause they were the ONLY company paying him.

Btw that is the reason Yahoo UTEK thread began--by shills touting Brinker's appearance and insiders touting his worth and UTEK.
