My non-technical mind thinks saying it will top at 1220 and it topping at 1231 or whatever is not a big deal.
Generally I'd agree. Maybe I'm not reading his posts with the right mindset. I just thought his statements were pretty absolute and his defense of them ignore reality. especially when he says he called the high in may and ignores the fact that we exceeded that in july.
He even said

Haha, indeed. You ask for it you get it.

Been following the board for some time, and I finally decided to join.
Baylor, don't let the negative posts bother you. I really enjoy reading what your guy has to say.
As far as hitting 1,220, the S&P still has not CLOSED at that point, since your prediction.
Highest close was 1,218.89 on 08/31/2011. Many investors are just in mutual funds, and the only value that matters is the Closing value, which still has not reached 1,220.
Please continue to keep us posted as to what your guy is saying.

I've got a bad feeling about the speech tonight and it's effects on the market. I might pull out and wait for the dust to settle.

For people to understand if they followed Baylor's lead they would have escaped a shite load of volatility in Aug, continuing into Sept, and retained gains earned YTD/May. I think any technical investor would have been very happy to see the numbers forecasted match closely to what occurred over 3-months when contrasting that with what has happened in the world and markets over the summer.
I am not a believer in people investing for retirement to blindly adhere to "x" percent of equity in all market conditions, but I can't totally exit the equity markets w/o a large tax hit, either, hence my current low percentage equity level.

His numbers have been 800, 1000, 1100 on the low end and 1180, 1220 and ~1350 on the high end. The only mark he has gotten right is that we would surpass 1180. The only other two that are within his post achieving margin of error are 1220 and 1100. We surpassed the high he said we would not pass in may in July. So please forgive me for questioning how right he was.
To be clear, I do not know where we are headed. The only prediction I agree with so far was posted by Chad.

I was planning on putting it all on the packers.

As a Saints fan I hate you, as a betting man I don't disagree with you. I dont expect them to win, have not looked at the spread, but just like LSU, I won't ever bet against them.

I don't have time to re-read thru the entire thread again, but my recollection was the down to 800-900 could be reached by YE, not on 9/7. My memory could be suffering from fail, but that is my recollection.
Still, 1345 > 1199, and he didn't have to visit 1119 to get back to 1199. Don't get me wrong as I like to beat on market pundits with the best of them. This scenario is somewhat similar to 5/2008 when I was faced with a difficult decision and got it mostly right but still cost me a lot of money shorter term.

I hope Turner scores thirty touchdowns and you go 0-16.

I have the same hope for mark ingram/Pierre Thomas

You drafted both of them? Poor strategy imo.

True. Saints suck. But other than that, why would have a strong, veteran back up be a problem for a rookie who hasn't played a down?

I would be surprised if they don't have extremely similar number of carries, namely, half as many as a RB who is a primary starter. :shrug:
