    Wow, dude still doesn't realize it's a 12Y bull market and not deep value.

    If I were a value investor I doubt I would be trading, it's rare to find value in stocks these days.
    Those which are value / low PE, are for a reason, because they're dogs.
    Buying budget, like transport, you'll get there but twice as long.

    Yes, he is a value guy. But I'm not. I watch him because sometimes he provides some macro perspectives.

    You said he has not been profitable all these years, yet he traded and spoke with confidence like a pro?

    It takes guts to admit one's failure ad talk openly of it. Traders should understand that being consistent and profitable is not easy while trading and so learning from such posts and one's experiences becomes really important. Kind of motivates.

    I was fortunate enough to learn value investing first, and did very well. It's when I switched over to day and momentum trading my accounts took a hit. After six years of mostly trading sideways, I went back to value investing, and am still in the game. Cheers.
