Oh by the way - the other major complaint of people trying to emulate your portfolios was that all of the moves on the spreadsheets were /not/ published at all.

Hey dont get me wrong - maybe since then you have put mechanisms into place for people to track your moves in real time (how do you actively buy and sell options on 40 or 50 positions in real time and keep it straight anyway?). Maybe now they can emulate your moves and everyone is making 300% per month !! woohoo !!

No wonder the market is tanking - Phils stock world is winning all the trades !

Phil - Yeah ok - but whether GS are a buncha thieving manipulators who dont know the industry is moot when you consider that their clueless call was what brought BA to its knees. In that case its not truth that matters, its a jittery investor who listens to the market 'master' (manipulator). The bottom line is that it wasnt the tanker contract that dropped em from 80 to 65.

Geez dude at this rate you should be running the world by now.

I know.. ur doing it for the people... cuz you care.

Oh - so as not to confuse anyone, I think oil should be around $85 -- but Ill settle for $110 if I have to.

Phil Ive always liked your writing style, but never found you credible due to your claims of outsized gains in your trading portfolios. In many cases your market calls are on the mark, but NOT when you start involving your political agenda.

Oh - and Boeing didnt tumble due to the tanker deal loss -- they tumbled due to GS saying they could lose 30% of their aircraft orders due to the economic downturn.

Time To Start Buying Some Dogs?

Funny - thinking about the purity of the 'Dogs' equation, you have to think that information and nuance werent anywhere near as available when the strategy was hatched -- Id think pre-judging your picks to at least an extent would be warranted. Call the old strategy 'Dogs for Dummies' , call the new strategy 'New Dogs'.

Gotta change with the times...

Oh - and whats all the venom goin on here ? I find most articles here quite interesting reading, regardless of typos. My God some of you need to disengage your hate and engage your higher thought processes.

Maybe learning how to hedge, and switching to decaf might help too !
