Yes he has mentioned that his recommendations didn't do well last year. This is why I brought up the monkey and the dart board.

Chelekis is a whole other breed, although I have read some good stuff on speculative investing written by him.

Andy.

PS. I lost a bit of respect for Kaiser in January with his fence sitting on WSP.

That must be a long long way. But seriously what pisses me off about all those amerikanski commentators (Rule, Kaiser) and the brokerage industry in general is their unabashed arrogant superciliousness and lack of any kind of understanding about the actual industry. This allows the major's a field day in picking up real good properties as the mouth breathers working for the paper mills never recognize a real promotion when they see one. This allows ARP to be bought out for 30 cents on the dollar by an actual miner who would not spend a dime if they thought they had to pay fair prices.. You have to take a paper mill and rub their nose in it as they are either wanting a business plan for an exploration company or looking for a crooked promoter who will fall in bed with their plan to fool the public one more time about the potential of their latest creation. looks like a mine if you take the plan turn it this way and squint hard, doesn't it. We know if Canaccord had been given a great wad of paper we would have seen the price at much higher levels on ARP. Perhaps a lesson to be learned.

What kills me is that 99% of the people posting here will never take the word of anyone who is an industry professional who has actually engineered for a mining company or worked on staff at one for the very least. I will admit that group is not the greatest paper analysis font in general but at least the mine economics and the geology they espouse may give on an edge. It never ceases to amaze me what stuff can be put over on people about geology and mine economics.
