Justa, give it up. Brinker was wrong. He made a mistake. You have admitted that he is mortal, why do you refuse to accept his mortality? I found the following excerpt from a post over on the UTEK thread, maybe you are familiar with it? You are right in suggesting that the time to be short looks to have passed. However, let's not ream the shorts too much. After all, during one time period it was the right call as a trader at least to have gone short UTEK. The tape tells no lies. Livermore and Brinker would no doubt agree. The previous post was posted on April 22 in response to someone who was taunting the "shorts" after a rally took UTEK from 18 7/8 on March 30 to 26 1/4 on April 21: (http://www2.techstocks.com/~wsapi/investor/reply-4151709) First, it looks like April 22 was again "the right call as a trader at least to have gone short UTEK". And second, I have no doubt that UTEK and AMAT will eventually turn around and even make new highs at some point in the future. But whether that happens in 2001, 2002,..., or 2010 does not take away from the fact that UTEK has not performed the way a "ROARING BUY" or a "FORMULA TRADE" should have performed. BTW, AMAT has now gone up a whopping $3 5/8 since September 22, 1995, when Brinker recommended AMAT at $25 on NBR. Let it go, Justa. "He ****** up the timing." Brinker is human, and UTEK shows his mortality. Just admit it, Justa. You'll feel better. Re: Another fabrication on your part. Do you care to tell me why you believe this, Justa? You must get laughed out of the court room whenever you get to defend someone. <g> Your only defense is to allege the accuser is lying without showing any evidence. It's funny, when I alleged that Brinker had lied to us about New Asia, Message 3599478 Message 3894405 you went off asking for proof. Well, I furnished it, Message 3668622 ...and now you allege that I have fabricated evidence more than once. Well, humor me and show me specifically what evidence I have ever fabricated. You know there is no proof. You just want me to get off topic from showing Brinker's true performance record. You're funny... Best Regards. Rillinois
