ReddeerFirst off , sorry Timebuilder as l tend to agree with your Cool it approach but Red asked a question and unlike him l never avoid or pretend l didn't read. Yes Red , l acknowledged that you did make a lot of money using margin , but that was then , this is now and your approach has left a pile of cash on the table , plus l don't consider your investment decisions of late very good or productive.Unlike many posters on this board and others , like myself who have admitted investment mistakes , in the last decade l am just about positive you have never admitted a mistake or a loser pick. That in itself is misleading to newbies and shows exactly how full of yourself you really are. One example would be TM , your ACB was about .75 cents and now it's hovering around 17 cents , absolutely brilliant as you have held for over a decade , l actually bought some at around .18 back when but got out at a profit when it ran to .50 cents , what did you do , hold as if you were getting some dividend , nope that was zero. Great investing acumen. Then there is AQN , sorry again TB as l know you like this oneas well. Our friend bought at $10 look at where it is now , but what did he say that was misleading , he was gladly holding on to that great 60 cent annual dividend as if he is predicting a fast recovery back to at least $10. Not going to happen and it will take him 5 years of collecting that Shakey div , just to break even that's of course if they don't cut again, EH Maybe Red would like to post some ironclad guarantee to anyone new investing in that one. He could have reacted to the Telecom pullback , which includes Telus , his largest holding but no , his portfolio took a 30 percent haircut because he never makes a mistake , just like if he sold his TM holdings at .50 cents he could many times since then bought back and tripled his sharecount. Now if the Great one needs anymore examples of his current investing strategy or how he never once admits how he isn't perfect , well just ask another question EH
