I had to look up what someone else posted on the net to see if it was true. I was amazed at what I found.... December 5, 2007 Marketimer (S&P 1481) Bob Brinker wrote: “The short-term correction that began in October and continued into November has served as a health-restoring pullback and has paved the way for new record highs in the S&P500 index” and “Marketimer subscribers have been able to add to positions on this short-term correction based on our recommendation to view the stock market as attractive for purchase on any weakness into the mid-1400’s range” and "We continue to believe that a bear market is not on the radar screen at this time. We expect the bull market to continue at least well into 2008, and look for significant stock market gains." Finally, he wrote “We continue to rate the market as attractive for purchase in the mid-1400’s… Any additional weakness below this range is regarded as a gift horse buying opportunity.” Looks like Brinker got a whole herd of those horses that now look like old mares! Ouch! BTW, you look like a bigger fool than Octavian arguing if someone who said they lost over a million dollars following Brinker should consider that a "fortune" even if they did not use those words.

M-I said: <<Again, Kirk , without further information, your statement means nothing.>> --That's for sure! It would only mean something if the anonymous guy explained HOW he lost the million. What advice of Bob's caused him to lose the million. But we'll never know that, because then we could analyze it and see that he didn't really follow Bob's advice. Or, we would learn that he simply rode the market down, like practically everybody else in the world except for newslettercheat, and blamed it on Bob.
