<If David wants to continue to callously confront and scare people that have invested in a start up DBS accessory provider, then I will most surely continue to come in here and attack him here, and anywhere else he posts. > Some FTRK investors might have cause to be sacred if the share price has dropped 40%, management's fault or not. <Perhaps you should talk to your beloved david, because as long as his childish nonsense continues, I will continue to retaliate in kind.> You think David has rained on your parade so you deliberately go out of your way to pollute "our" thread. David is one more contributer among many, though he is a bit more prolific, but it is hardly "his" thread as you acknowledge. Yet his actions on your thread will result in turds dropped on our thread. Who's being childish? <To all TRMB holders who have bought on davids advice; be careful because his analysis is one sided and he attempted to refute my posts that warned of an impending sellof and a steady increase in the short interest, (which has now come off a good bit this last month)> To anyone who is long or short TRMB, or any stock, based on anyone else's advice - get out now. If you don't know for yourself why it was a good investment, take the money and go to Las Vegas, then at least you won't be fooling yourself what game you're playing and pretending that you're investing. Most people's analyses are mostly one-sided, as yours are also. People prepared to come forth with an analysis have often also reached a decision as an outcome of the process and are biased to exposing the arguments for the side they chose. Is this a surprise? I should hope someone who isn't going to be separated from their money pays attention to multiple sources of information, considers them cautiously including a consideration of their track record, and synthesizes them into a course of action consistent with their own risk tolerance and aversion. I was long TRMB long before anyone else here could possibly have been, including David. I also haven't seen too many people who are short term investors on this thread. I should think we all know that a 25% drop from the high of a year that saw the stock more than double from its lows isn't as obviously the beginning of a crash as your "good" TA leads you to post. On the other hand it might be. My own cut is that 11-12 is much too low a price based on the current and forecast fundamentals, but that the short term technical action has been very weak for long TRMB investors. But TA and FA are only as good as the next day's closing price. Regardless, your last post was unnecessary and motivated solely by childishness - a premature desire to "make" David eat crow. Both your positions are on record and one of you will be right and the other wrong. If you are to be right, then your "rightness" will speak for itself and David's "attempted rebuttal" will be wrong. That should be enough to establish your credentials as a "good" technical analyst, if it happens as you predict. But your predictions of 11 or 12 haven't come to pass yet and it is too early to take any credit or dish out any crow.
