I think the Robert Einstein posts got everybody curious. If you read enough of the financial literature like Forbes you'll see that frequently they mention the technical analyst Michael Burke. Thats him! Good luck.

Yields, I didn't take your note as an attack. I get attacked a lot and I usually know one when I see it, though I have made mistakes in the past. I just figured that you were asking for a justification for someone asking my opinion, and I don't think that is the point. I believe the point is to get opinions on the table and then kick them, not the opinionators, around. And I sure don't have a monopoly on good opinions. In fact, when my pc was down for nearly a month, this thread went on very well without me. However, if you just want a quick resume, here goes: I was a tech analyst at Waddell & Reed (The United Funds), an equity and options portfolio manager at The St. Paul Companies, an equity options and futures portfolio manager and trader for Financial Hedge Corporation, a hedge fund in Dallas, and a fixed income + options and futures mutual fund manager at American Capital in Houston, now the Van Kampen American Capital subsidiary of Morgan Stanley. Currently, I manage my own portfolio and the maximum income portfolios of six high net worth individuals living in Asia. I have managed as much as $10 Billion at one time, so I have a lot of experience in all kinds of markets. But I make mistakes like everyone else. I'm just better at setting up systems to maximize my winners and minimize my losers. Hope this helps, MB
