If this you a couple points....I hear you have a "response" coming

no reason to watch a 2006 presentation...I already said that recently you have been "very right"..

the point was for 4-5 years you were very wrong in regards to dow / nasdaq..

you don't get points for yelling "it's 3 o'clock" every hour and then when it is actually 3 o'clock looking around and saying "told you so".

"I would have been right had housing collapsed sooner" you say.....ok...if Kennedy had ducked he'd still be here. What is the point? If a lot of things would have happened differently a lot of things would have ended differently...

It didn't and you weren't..

In regard to the dollar, it is just the opposite...you were very right for a while, before being very wrong now. Problem is that as late as July I believe you were saying the dollar was doomed yet it is up what 25% since then?

The markets in general. The international markets you invest in rode the wave up and now down with the US market, many far worse on the downside now. No idea what your positions are (not listed) but one has to assume you have not "bucked the trend" based on your writings.

Guys like Ackman, Tilson and Paulson, who began going short mortgages (and by-products) in 2005-2006 are the ones "who were right".

There is more but I guess I'll save it for the rebuttal??

the statement you made is not false if you believe it, that is my point...

lehman has lied to investors, they should be the ones being investigated

if cnbc relays the rumor, are they now guilty? it may or may not be true until after the fact...

the problem with 6% comps is that you are paying 26 times EPS for shares

as for the "no one ever made money", had you shorted it after my first post when I said this would happen you would be sitting on a 30% gain in 3 months

what is your idea of making $$?

PS... i also said this last may here: valueplays.blogspot.co...

the stock was $45 then...]]> Thu, 15 May 2008 17:17:50 -0400
