Ron,

I love CNBC. Yes there are parts of it I don't like, but overall the programs from 6am to 7:30pm are informative and entertaining. People perceive you as bearish because (to me) you report "it as it is", no sugar coating. I wonder if some of the threaders here are "a little short" and highly critical because of current market conditions?
Question: What are your guidelines in talking about stocks you hold? Last year I think it was Mark Haynes who mentioned he owned some shares of the stock the analyst was talking about.
Ron, I hope you and your associates read this thread and take the criticism for what it's worth. There are some really good suggestions here, and a lot of nit-picking. Keep up the good work. tombet

Ron,

I enjoyed the commentary that you provided today on the activities and membership of the Shadow Open Market Committee. When the announcement of their conclusions was aired the other day, the message was missing the more detailed information you so nicely provided today.
