John:
In general terms, it is not normally possible to genuinely dislike a person that one has never met, and there exists the possibility that the persona A.J.C. is dissimilar from the public image. That said, I refuse to believe that Abby is as totally bereft of functioning neurons as her public utterances would lead one to believe. All humans make beaucoup mistakes, but the tendency is to learn from same. In blunt terms, I don't think the lady is as dumb as her remarks suggest. If that observation is accurate, then she is fibbing through her bicuspids, probably to keep the market "whole", until post Goldman's IPO. In her position, she has access to data that the rest of us would kill for, hence she can harbour few illusions as to just how close to a deflationary meltdown really is. To feed a naive and heavily exposed public this snake oil potion at this point in time isn't criminal, but it comes close. As has been the case with other high profile analysts, a 180 degree back flip should be expected,.... (again post IPO) which will position her "call" appropriately for the record.
The lady has no class.

Best, Earlie
