Kevin,

Have you noticed that when we are in a correction, or a bear market, that everyone is a bear, but when the market turns, and the bull takes over, all of a sudden the short sellers are deemed too stupid to think for themselves?

I for one resent these "do-gooders" that arrive on this, and other "short" threads, in an unwanted attempt to "save" us.

They remind me of religious fanatics that are out attempting to "save" the world.

Later,

Have fun, I am going hunting.
Phil

Re: analysis.

My apologies. It was unfair for me to give incomplete information and leave. I first came to this thread to see if I could make a bundle off of his picks. I started at the 1500's intending to go forward a few hundred posts but ended up going all the way up to PVN (which I did add in my analysis) It's hard to do a quantitative (vs qualitative like I tried to do) analysis of his picks since Mr. Pink isn't always too clear about exactly when to buy or sell. If you have a few free hours grab the charts and try it yourself. Do yourself a favor and don't interpret phrases like "but be careful" as "you should sell at $33 1/2."

If it makes you feel better about me not seeming cowardly, I do read responses to my posts and will bear the full brunt of any of Mr. Pink's or his aliases' posts when he gets back from vacation or gets online.

Bullrider,

I apologize if I sounded like a religious fanatic who was trying to "save" you. I'm not. Honestly I don't give a rip. I probably shouldn't have posted in the first place but since I spent a few hours looking over posts and thought I would throw in my two cents worth.

I guess I should cover loose ends - I have no idea if Mr. Pink has any aliases or any proof for that matter. It only sounds like that to me from reading some of the posts.
