Talking Analysts When the game is on the line - the go to guys - need to be on the court. My go to guy is Don Wolanchuck. Perhaps yours is Cramer (I don't know)? If he is then I've got Michael Jordan, Jerry West, and Oscar Robertson and you've got The Worm! Wolanchuk was making great clutch shots when Cramer was just a water boy dreaming great dreams. Sorry to be so blunt about it, but that is the way it is. Do you remember that interview with Wolanchuk posted here a few months back? Can you think of one call he made that hasn't come to pass? He was making those calls when Cramer was still hawkin' tech wolf tickets to Grandma. All that talk about options is from guy who DID NOT MAKE THE CALL, and sounds like severe Monday morning quarterbacking to me. Not only did he not make the call, he was ferociously bearish at the OS bottom. If he wants to cling to his image as the great contrarian then why wasn't this joker establishing long positions with us down there at the bottom? As far as I am concerned he is not only "WRONG" he is Mr. Wrong. Most smart people on "the street" know what's going on in Asia right now. They know that money is absolutely FLOODING the region, both privately and publicly. I haven't posted even one tenth the stuff I've been reading in the Asian press on this board, simply becuase I got tired of being ridiculed or ignored. So for him to suggest that the recent move in cyclicals was just a two day wonder based on options trades is just BULLSH*T. These stocks have been putting in long bases and have been under STRONG accumulation for quite some time. What we are watching is the breakout from that bottom. They are breaking out ALL OVER THE WORLD so that puts the lie to options explanation. The CBOE does NOT affect individual stocks in Australia, GB, Mexico, and Brazil. That is the most laughable brain dead explanation I have ever heard. If it weren't so pathetic it would be funny. If these feckless Johnny come lately Wall Street twits can manage to put a dent in the rally in economically sensitive stocks (outside of normal healthy profit taking) then it will be a testament to the power of marketing. But the selloff will be short and sweet IMO. The days of an OS stock rallying 50% and selling off 45% are over.
