When I see a previous prediction made for a new strain I will agree.plus it needs to fall out in the predicted time line given .

Other wise any of us mortals can guess at an outcome at some point

He may not have exactly predicted a new strain but he did predict worsening lockdowns and that is where we are headed.

We all did ....but calling when so you can act effectively is the whole name of the game ...like I said close only counts in horseshoes and hand Grenades .


If you can’t beat an index fund then you failed ....all it takes is to miss one big up day or miss call one major down day and that effects your compounding forever

But he beat the index, mathjak. He said he's up 40% this year. Let's give credit where it's due.

Are we here to invest for 1 year and then call it quits?

Okay fanboy. Everyone knew we would have additional lockdowns this fall and winter. And what’s funny is Heart though the market would go down because of this and DID NOT think it was priced in already. Which it was priced in because we are at all time highs right now even with additional lockdowns and record cases.

I went to the casino and left 40% up this year. What’s your point? People come on here to brag about their gains when they’re up and then are silent when they’re down. If you’re such a fanboy you should be short the market in a 3x levered ETF right now. And short Tesla. You’d be down BTW if you were.

You're grasping.
He predicted additional and worsening lockdowns. If the vaccines that have been developed are worthless against the new Covid strain, we are up ____ creek and without a paddle

So let me ask you , if his time line is off and you buy in January and in 3 months time get caught in a downturn anyway from the next . black swan event what did you gain by it except having a smaller cushion from missing the up days with all your dough
