Mr. GreenJeans: A case could be made that a nominee list for the
First Annual Bear of the Year Award(1997) should include the
illustrious Mr. BowTie, Jimmy Rogers himself. Mr. BowTie, surely
not a Brinker disciple, has distinguished himself on CNBC-TV and
other media as a tireless inflation fearmonger and bear market ad-
vocate. His forecasts for 1998 have escaped my attention as I have
long since come to ignore his curious perspectives. That being said,
the other day, a brief CNBC-TV snippet suggested, to recall it, that
Rogers may be bullish on Uganda and Swaziland. No doubt those
who profited from his blustery buy signal on black pepper several
seasons ago took notice of his latest pronouncements.

Well, I remember reading recent comments from Michael Metz which seemed to suggest that he has softened a little these days...

Unable to withstand the relentless taunting of the bulls, long-time bears might well change their stance and cross to the other side -- a clear and unmistakable sign of a market that is much, much closer to the top than it is to the bottom.

Dipy.

Yea, Michael Metz gets my vote also for bear of the year, partly because even his facial features remind me of a bear. Yes, he is the bear of all bears.
