BTIM recommended short on this thread at 17 a share. Current price 6 and change. My analysis of BTIM was 100% correct as the stock price has proven. I love the way that TAVA, BTIM, CCSI, etc suckers continue to fantasize that the SEC will somehow punish short-sellers who post their opinions in chat rooms. Scam victims love to blame everyone except themselves. I'm going to give you some sincere advice. Let this go. You were wrong - now deal with it. Your money and time would be better spent on other investments. Wishing that BTIM is going to go up is not going to make it go up.

I think these accusations of Bill Wexler being some kind of "short shill" are just nutty, and reflect the lack of rationality, intelligence, and integrity by some of these die-hard longs of these dubious stocks. Without much prior research into the matter, I'm willing to bet that Bill Wexler is just who he represents himself to be, and that he uses his real name and views in his postings. I believe it is a simple matter to contact Bill directly, and to verify his identity and motives. I find it insulting that some "longs" of these dubious stocks resort to false rumors and thinly veiled threats in attempts to infringe on the rights of free speech of intelligent and responsible posters. It is clear that conclusions of the mainstream press are coincident with those of the intelligent, responsible shorts like Bill Wexler, and with the market performance of these dubious stocks. I respect the posters who use their real names, and who refrain from personal attacks, unfounded rumors, and who present thorough, rational arguments. Steve
