This posting is ridiculous and I feel ashamed I wasted my time reading it. There is no supporting information on why Derek Foster is a better investor other than he stuck with the stock market (which is completely wrong by the way) He sold out completely in March 2009 at the absolute bottom. To compare these two people are like comparing bill gates (Eric Sprott) to the bum on the streets. There is no comparison whatsoever. Sprott is an educated CA, and Foster is a wannabe market participant.

I was not going to write anything, but since you have been so vocal against Sprott, with very little supporting information concerning your disapproval of what he is saying, I feel compelled to write.

The article that you mention is actually extremely important and shows exactly the dire state of the government bond market, being blatantly manipulated by the Federal Reserve. This will lead to an ongoing bubble in treasuries, ultimately leading to a collapse. I don't expect you to really understand this. But you mentioned the article in your blog, so you should at least know what it is about.

As for your argument that Foster is the better investor... well, it's not really an argument at all, you just state it "matter of factly" in the first paragraph... with no support. Foster sold his portfolio at the lowest point that the stock market reached in over 10 years... Buy low... sell high? Foster did the exact opposite. How is this good investing?

Also, I would like to note that your description of short sellers is not at all correct... Short selling has nothing to do with the amount of time an investment is held.
