The recognition of the Wall St. Journal

It's a good post because I got in to much of a hurry and had to go back and read the last page of the Ginsberg article.{short selling and the Wall St. Journal.}

The thing is, Vinny Stupidante, that shortboy sucked from 96 right through to 2002. (Not to mention the fact that those results were fabricated anyway!)

You wish you could have made 17%? But wait a minute...you're shortdick's biggest fan? Do you mean that a subsriber to his service couldn't replicate shortdick's results? That doesn't sound good...
More...

LOL
 
the 2 Wharton bsuiness school grads that published a book including shortboy printed AUDITED results. So sorry, my jealous friends.

Also, if I'm not up as much as shortboy it's because of my own desire to try to trade the market long as well. DUHHHH!?!

You couldn't figure that one out? An I always talking to morons here?
 
The last short operation to get famous was Feshbech Bros. of Clearwater. They were hot in the early nineties...ouch...I pity them for what they must have gone through after that.
 
I think you and shortboy are both full of shit...but it's quite amusing talking to you.

I think anyone that would only trade one side of the market (regardless of market conditions) is a total dumbass. If you think this is worthy of praise, you are even dumber.

Now, as a rule, I never like to brag, but you are proud of shortboy 17%? I, myself, am up well over three times that. But as a TRADER, who cares about percentages... I'm telling you man, bringing that stuff here like it's praiseworthy doesn't do shortboy any favors at all..

Back to the drawing board Vinny...
 
I did not understand why the Journal would bring attention to a short oriented stock picker who underperforms the S&P when I read the article and after reading this board I am still waiting for an explanation.
I know others have brought this up but I have not heard an answer from Vinny. How do you think somebody who runs an advisory service on selling stocks short is worthy of consideration when they can not even beat the S&P. We could have shorted the S&P and been up 19% or followed your boy's advice and been up 17%.
Not that any of this matters just an interesting board.
 
shortboy has been trading since 1996. And he has trounced the S&P according to AUDITED results for 6 straight years. If you do not believe it, take it up with the 2 Wharton Business school grads who wrote a chapter about him.

Even though the S&P rose from 1996-1999, Shortboy beat the S&P index, an impressive accomplishment, and has continued to beat it ever since.

Don't fall into the trap of listening to the jealous ones on this board. Don't believe what you hear, due your own due diligence.

In 2002, shortboy's up 20%, and the S&P is down 20%. Maybe that's not great performance for you in 2002. But let me ask you a question, when you purchase a mutual fund, do you ask fot a 1/2 years performance, or ALL of their results.

Shortboy has also been in the Wall St. Journal twice, when the article topic was short selling, so apparently he is a well recognized name in the world of short selling.

Read the book that includes a chapter on shortboy for the REAL story. The link is somewhere in this thread. thanks,
