Bulletin Board Moron of the Day

Tom Winnifrith
Friday 22 March 2013

And so I advised folks to go short Cupid. Anyone who did so has already recouped any losses they got from my previous buy tip. A good day’s work and the right call. As ever if I had a position in a stock I write about I would declare it. I was not long of Cupid and nor was I short. Yet some BB cretins do not believe it. And so today’s Bulletin Board cretiin of the day is from ADVFN, an anoymous little turd posting as markt

 

Tom Winnifrith " I would be closing my long and opening a short at 112p." in e-mail missive just sent to distribution list (1 free share tip) --- 1) At least Tom Winnifrith will have made some money then. Is such action legal ?? "City Slickers" went I think to prison for pushing, via a national paper, shares they had just bought ...and then selling after punters followed their tip and pushed the price up ? (2 journalists)..... If TW sold at 112p and then closed today at say 70p...then that is a massive % profit in 1 day. MASSIVE.

Ends

I give up. I always say if I own a share which I am writing about and as I have declared many times have never opened a short in my life. There were some other contenders for BB moron of the day notably those folks who suggested that I did just what Evil told me to do. Why the f**k should I? I do not work for him and vice versa.

It happens more often than most BB tossers give me credit for but on this occasion I actually got the call spot on with today’s change of stance on Cupid allowing those who followed my original duff tip to recoup losses. Thanks for recognising that fact guys.

Markt clearly has a brain the size of a flea’s penis. I suppose that in BB land that marks him out as a bit of an intellectual giant.
