Ilk???

Allow me to moderate for the moment...

According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, the word ILK refers to breed, class, specimen... the example they cite is:

The club attracts punk rockers and others of that ilk.

Clearly, there is a negative connotation in the use of that word and has nothing to do with referring to those criticize data without presenting their own, as you suggested...

The fact is, the poster is not criticizing, he's merely asking the same question I've asked you several times, e.g., how come you never mention a rally other than to call it "just a bounce?"

This market has been in a rally for several years with only minimal pull backs along the way...

I don't know anyone else who would characterize this incredible multi year rally a "just a bounce."

That's not a criticism, that's a question... and if someone is clueless, then how else can they learn but to ask questions...

Here's a clue:

12/21/2012 SPX at 1430, "I am still holding on to my SPX downside numbers"

Message 28619556

"Here and now, we are still waiting to see resolution down and once that is done...." (to 1300 area)

Message 28619645

1/3/2013 SPX at 1462, "bounce will fail" expecting 1296

Message 28640422

2/8/2013 SPX at 1518, expecting "pullback" down to 1305

Message 28713392

and then it just goes on and on and on, March, April, May, June, and July, all the way up to 1680 (twice).

6/24/2013 SPX at 1572, "bell curve. I won't get into all the details but the avg is 55 ish. More importantly looking at other details I'm going to LOWER my downside number for the avg. to 35."
