You know as well as I do


the common man gets fucked
It's not even that. What I'm getting at is more of people's misunderstanding about information

Unless you have insider information information to trade off of (which is illegal) or unless you have reason to disagree with the analysis of professionals whose job is to buy and sell a security all day err day when they see value, then you shouldn't expect an above average return on a risk-adjusted basis when purchasing an individual security

In other words, individual security selection, for the most part, is gambling. Nothing more

Yeh. Broker dealers do have a timing advantage. Michael Lewis's book flashboys addresses this. Good read

I was going a more general route of just saying why my opinion whether to buy silver right now in terms of a short term profit motive is ... I have no effin clue. And I think anyone who claims to have a clue is either lying to you, or lying to himself

Your constant effort to ‘catch me out’ isn’t going so well is it?

idiot
Well, I consistently prove your claims to be incorrect at which point you respond with the same kind of childish name calling that you complain about from others. So you tell me how you think it's going?

tut.

I don’t respond to you once I’ve made a post that proves you incorrect.

why would I?

because I dont follow up your nonsense isn’t me saying you won. It’s because you bore.

And unlike our ptsd member I have no wish to spam up the board with your boring nonsense. With the pointless back and throwing.

christ you're.boring

You get more delusional by the hour. It's as concerning as it is riveting.
