“It’s better to absorb knowledge from all sources and then make your own judgement.”
Cabinboy, if your argument is correct, Rich should just take down the forum since everybody here either has all four skills you describe and doesn’t need anybody else’s analysis, or they don’t have these skills and will blindly follow somebody’s advice here and get in trouble and end up on the street.
“Six months of returns” Where does that fit in after talking about the limitations of fundamental analysis?!?
First you say that fundamental analysis loses it’s value over short time periods (which I agree with wholeheartedly), but then you want to compare 6 month returns?!?
I think that the forums are a valuable source of ideas, no matter who they come from. If people want to go 100% gold, that’s their business and I may not agree with them, but I certaintly want to hear their argument about why they are doing it, I might learn something.
I don’t think people here are reading posts and then opening a new window and logging into E-Trade to dump what Powayseller talked about last week and buy what jg talked about today. Give us more credit than that.
