FYI and lurkers too...from the StockHouse Crystallex forum...... patriko Get Shorty 12/23/97 10:04 45905 From time to time we hear from different posters who criticize us for being so obsessed regarding shorters. It cost them nothing to post their opinions. Which is fine. It has cost my North American and European investment network millions over the last decade. This would partially explain my behavior, and my disdain for this group. How many times have they won? Almost always. These were mostly VSE and ASE companies. How did they usually do it? Same way as they are trying to do it here. If they could not make the company fold through exposing their weaknesses, a phone call would go to David Baines(journalist), and within days to weeks the company would dissapear. Most of these companies deserved to be shorted, and I do not have a problem with that. There have been dozens of companies of merit, whom while waiting for crucial financing, were assualted and driven down in price. It did not matter that these companies held the rights to intellectual properties, world rights for proprietary products, or a potential multi million ounce deposit. When the money dried up, due to the manipulation, the deals were lost. Only to be picked up by other more powerful concerns. This proved to me that they were valid in the first place. Try to put yourself in the eyes of some of these megalomanaical monsters. They could not even come close to rhe respectability of Fung. The background of one of them consists of being taken out of a Toronto Brokerage Firm in hand cuffs(back then you had to really do something wrong to get slapped) for trading infractions. And that is the only story that I am going to tell you, today. There is more, a hell of a lot more! These are their tactics, not mine. We continously post that they should be intimidated (myself included) of Fung! This is exactly what gives them their adrenalin rush! Think about it. They could never be the man he is, so why not take some sort of perverse pleasure, in doing what they do best, and trying all the same tactics, that usually work. The rewards of beating Fung, far outweighs the risk of losing a few million. They can afford it. Think about how alive you will feel whan we win! That is exactly how they anticipate that they will feel. We have three governments behind MO and Fung now. Including the most powerful government in the world!!!! EAT THAT BRUCE!!!!! p;>) HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL! Like Mel Blanc, "I Tan't Wait Till Quithmuth Day" (spelling provided by Mikey the "bidder"). Randomwalker.
