What bothers me about Brimelow's attitude concerning BOB BRINKER'S QQQQ trade is his logic is twisted into a pretzel. . How does Mark Hulbert deciding to "sell QQQQ's" when he learned BOB BRINKER didn't put them in his portfolio excuse the fact that BOB BRINKER recommended using portfolio "cash reserves"???? . Amazing the lengths some will go to trying to help BOB BRINKER cover the stuff in his litter box. Oh, so first Brinker was dishonest when he said Hulbert rated Brinker No. 1. Then, when that claim was disproved, suddenly it was Hulbert that was dishonest in his methods just to favor Brinker. No evidence whatever for that, but now............... Brimelow is dishonest and going to great "lengths" ... to "help Bob Brinker"....LOL Amazing indeed.

It sure doesn't sound as if Mark Hulbert and Brimelow are warning folks about Brinker as much as they are saying to watch out for those conspiratorial nutcases. And you all know who you are. Hey Stocka, did you read the part about paranoid conspiracy theories? A Bob Behind Every Bush. LOL Brimelow: "Some Brinker critics seem to display considerable, if paranoid, scholarship. They have conspiratorial explanations as to why Brinker recommends specific stocks. They even claim that they have detected him participating in his own chat rooms under a pseudonym. But the beauty of Mark's [Hulbert] method is that none of this matter. If an investment succeeds, it succeeds. And Brinker has succeeded." "...Over the last 10 years, however, Marketimer gained 11.4% annualized vs. 9.4 percent annualized for the DJ Wilshire 5000. Which is why Mark Hulbert consistently consults Marketimer when reviewing what the best market timers are saying..." With the large number of newsletters followed by Hulbert, I think it is telling that he consistently consults Brinker when he wants to know what the best market timer is saying. Out at the top, back in at the bottom...that's all you need to know. Forget about those optional trades those conspiratorial nutcases whine about...without that they they would have nothing at all about which to complain. Bob clearly warned that trade was ONLY for those subscribers interested in taking advantage of the optional recommendation. Anybody with a lick of sense could see that's why they weren't in the model portfolios.
