I can't really see the betfair model, at this stage of the game, being a good one to invest in.



kinda late to the party aren't you ozzie man

here' s how I responded to a poster on the US racing forum where asked if it was a good idea to invest in the BF IPO.

Sorry, didn't see your question re: BF IPO until now.

The short answer is NO, an emphatic no in fact. NONE of the IPO's on the table now look attractive, you'd be buying at market top.

Think this kind of proves that Canadian = Melly.

How come both of them have terrible reading comprehension skills, and also have no idea about the stock market?

Melly has tried this with me before, inventing conclusions, or downright twisting what I have said.

Looks like his pal is at it as well.

Here's the thing in case you didn't realise. The above post is perfectly valid. The only question at the moment, as with any stock out there, is "are they a good buy/sell or not at current prices?". Why does it matter that he is posting his views after they have dropped in value? Couldn't they have further to go still?

Why does it matter if he wasn't on right at the start of the drop (although we don't know what he actually did)? There are thousands of trading opportunities a year, is one supposed to be on all of them?

I could very well turn around and mock all of you by saying I bought AAPL at $7 in 2003, then laugh at people buying it at $300. Is there anything wrong with being late to the party, even if it's got a few hours left?

Yes, we get it, you think you have got one over on Ben because you posted to short betfair at IPO, and ben didn't post anything. Well done. The only problem is this might have actually been funny if Ben posted a Buy recommendation at £15. Otherwise, it is simply a case of childish bragging about one trade out of many you have actually got right. Laugh

Whippet, you still haven't dealt with your anger issues I see. Until you do, you'll be nothing but an immature child trying to impress beyond his ability on this forum.
