You are wasting your breath, there is none so blind as those who do not wish to see.
For some reason having an aussie emial address discounts your comments completely, why I do not know but it obviously does.
I wouldnt mind so much the negativity if it was based on personal knowledge, however some fool the other day was waffling on about "current acadenic thinking" and "broke university lecturers", the same ones who are broke but teach fundamental business analysis.
At no point have I seen a poster say they spent the time learning and it didnt work. But I look at it this way, on the other side of every trade is a loser and I suppose if they werent there you wouldnt be able to take their money off them. Look at the poster who said the markets were gambling, there are millions of these poeple all over the world giving money to other people who understand whats going on. Long live them all. Last week I warned a poster about a share that she was championing had a 3 to 1 sell order ratio on the asx, I recieved torrid abuse from another poster about being a tea leaf reader, I was only reading what was clearly displayed on the screen live from the ASX.
My understanding of fundamental investment is that falling in love with a stock is part of the romance of investment for most people, Van Tharp in his book "Trade your way to freedom" calls it the lotto effect, i.e you have put your money up and now you hope that your ticket comes in.
Nice of you to drop by.
PS, Theres a great saying I love to use on my kids when they are giving me a bit of lip about some sage ( I think so) advice I am giving them , it goes like this, No one is a prophet in there own land. However I think we should also add, particularly if they have an aussie email address :-)
