You are correct, you are wrong.

He's only wrong about flaming the CAPM and even daring to compare that elegant model to your BS. Pick up Linter's or Sharp's or Mossin's derivation of it and peruse it at least once before you make such comparisons.

don't mean to be picky but someone who actually tries looking for those people you suggested may not find Lintner.

(not Linter)

You know, dude, if you'd cut the b#ll about being so "huge" and being the "best out there" crap, maybe people would take you a bit more seriosly and would actually offer you some helpful advice. Some of us here are actually trading and making quite good money doing so, your measly 15% on only the closed trades is total BS. My model averages 120% annually and yet, I'd <b>never</b> dare pound myself on the chest that I'm da best out there, the way your narcissistic ass is fond of doing. (By the way, a lot more than your crude screens and autocorrelation analysis went into building it and it took more than what you think is the coolest degree out there (Whaton MBA). MBA's don't teach you sh#t. I know there are really talented people out there who know much more about trading than me although I'm this close to having a PhD.
And by the way, moron, I'm only 171 pounds and 5 feet 10 but I do bench 365 and have no flabby saggy muscles you do. No excess bodily hair either (This is just to meet the "challenge" you posed in the other thread to ET members about anyone here having "wharton MBA" and being as "strong" as you think you are.)

Seems like you came up short on both counts:

#1. Wharton MBA
#2. 385 lb bench press

It still annoys people. Hey, Mr.Market, if you ever take ElCubano up on his offer and go to Miami, let me know, I'll suggest you a detour so I can kick the sh#t out of you too.

Why do you want to fight me? I don't want to fight you. I've never even hinted at any aggression towards anyone on this board. Tsk Tsk why such hostility?

I did. I studied under Donald Keim, the person who first coined the January Effect, when I was a grad student at WHARTON.

WFT are you talking about? King? Give me a break. If he had even a tiny portion of the money those funds are managing, then the comparison would have a chance of being reasonable.

There was actually a study done once that proved that the professional money managers who attended top 10 MBA programs outperformed all of the other ones.

Draw any conclusions you might like from this.

No hint at agression?

"I never said anywhere that I was a professional trader. I am not a "bodybuilder" and, quite frankly, I'm not sure you'd ask me that question in person, would you?"

That is an implied threat.

Just speculation on my part...threatening people is juvenile and uncivilized. I'm a lover, not a fighter as can be evidenced by my most recent HotorNot rating!!!
