I think with the exception of walkerman, everyone here admits that Brinker cannot be trusted to tell the truth. Some seem to think that is not a big deal at all.

1) How many think that should Brinker issue a buy signal, that he will pretend and measure his performance as though he exited the market completely in January 2000 and stayed totally in cash until this "re-entry" signal??

2) How many think Brinker will keep giving updates on the QQQs once he gives a "re-entry" point?

3) How many believe as I do that he will pull a fast one and kind of "meld" those qQQs with a gimmick like
"now that we are in a fully invested position each subscriber should rebalance their portfolios along areas of risk and diversification that are appropriate for them in this cyclical bull market. As we've always said in Marketimer we treat all our assets as one portfolio. If any of you would feel better making changes in your allocation from previous holdings or any counter trend rally purchases during the bear market, now is the time to bring them back into compliance with our model portfolios. Since we are fully invested all such moves would be "sideways" moves.--

---translation of that is "You won't be hearing about the QQQs ever again and I am going to pretend that I went to cash in early 2000 and stayed there until a re-entry point. That lie will sell a lot of newsletters that the truth would not"

See if he doesn't do that, every month he has to acknowlege that those QQQs were part of his legacy. If he issues a sell he knows that there will be many people saying
"I bought those sobs at 83 and now he tells me to sell them at 45. What kind of timing is that?"

Those of you who believe in Brinker, I would enjoy hearing not only if you agree if he will do this but would such deception change your opinion of him?

For the new believers here, who might say "that's impossible he wouldn't do that".

1) TEFQX was a buy and then a hold and then "disappeared"

2) I predicted right here last spring that after months of promising to call Moabo with his model, that he would back out and say his model "was about identifying risks, not about finding a bottom"---

Those were nearly his exact words last May or June when he gave up the moabo game and claimed his model was not about finding a bottom.

Now it seems he's claiming it is once again about finding a bottom and is trying to sell newsletters on the basis of "EBO"--Extraordinary buying opportunity"

Perhaps everyone ought to take cover when Brinker uses the word Opportunity---check that QQQ bulletin and see how many times Brinker used "Opportunity".

I must confess I can read that sucker like a book.
