I posted today's purchase at 7:19 AM, today. It can't be any earlier than minutes after the stock markets opened, Rufus. Did you purchase any? No. Moreover, if you had a clue as to investing, you would know that rallies often last longer and go further than expected.
I was for a short period of time a client of Fisher Investments. I gave them at least three ideas that would have earned them and their clients tens of millions of dollars, but they think they have all the answers, so I left them.
I said sell Japan Fund and buy Brazil. The following year, Japan continued to tank and Brazil was up 20 or 25%.
I told them the WSJ advised selling equities invested in terrorist sponsoring nations, TOT was one such Fisher holding. They did nothing. I demanded that they sell mine and had to sign a waiver. They replaced it with BHP.
TOT went up 20% in the following 12 months. BHP went up 85%. They were fools, just like Credit Suisse Bank which went belly up after I called out their Chief Investment Strategist in the Wall Street Journal years earlier. YEARS. I wrote Cisco Systems to pay extraordinary dividends instead of buying overpriced Silicon Valley startups. They ignored me and have not recovered since tanking monumentally.
