That's what you're - a self-contradicting wanker.Originally posted by Gazelle:If say it all Mr. wanker?
haha...you can call yourself a prince if you want to...
Your Highness 
A timely acknowledgement would do wonders for your treatment... -
first a wankerOriginally posted by walesa:That's what you're - a self-contradicting wanker.
then a prince
Gazelle must be meaning you are a prince wanker is it?
Hmmm, by calling you highness, he's
1) admitting he is a wanker
2) admitting he is of a lower class as compared to you, which you have already emphasized and we already know -
1) For Barclays investment, would you have predicted that RBS will pip Barclays in acquiring ABN Amro during the time when Temasek was planning to make the investment?Originally posted by walesa:On a sidenote, how is the GIC's investment in UBS any better (or different) than Temasek's desperately ill-advised bid for Barclays just prior to the latter's bid for ABN Amro fell through?
2) Suppose if Barclays submitted a higher bid than RBS in taking over ABN Amro, will that benefit Barclays stock price especially if we take into consideration ABN's billions worth of subprime related investment.
3) Is stock price the only yardstick to measure the value of Barclays investment? What about their track record in profit growth, dividend yield, and strategic benefits to enhance Singapore's position as financial hub? -
Eagle, I dont think I need to repeat myself.

And how does your post address the contradiction of the following?Originally posted by Gazelle:1) For Barclays investment, would you have predicted that RBS will pip Barclays in acquiring ABN Amro during the time when Temasek was planning to make the investment?
2) Suppose if Barclays submitted a higher bid than RBS in taking over ABN Amro, will that benefit Barclays stock price especially if we take into consideration ABN's billions worth of subprime related investment.
3) Is stock price the only yardstick to measure the value of Barclays investment? What about their track record in profit growth, dividend yield, and strategic benefits to enhance Singapore's position as financial hub?Originally posted by Gazelle:If you dont intend and need to cash out your investment, there is really no need to worry about that. Companies like UBS and Barclays are very well run companies and they will be able to ride out the storm.
As Warren Buffet said, when he buy into the company, he would like to hold on to it forever and his company's result speaks for itself.Originally posted by Gazelle:When Temasek and GIC make such a huge investment, you can rest assure that they would have seek investment banks to do countless round of valuation on their investment before making the plunge.
If you want to comment or criticise their overall investment strategy, please use quantifiable facts to support your argument, not words like "Could" -
The only thing of concern - and which is probably already known by consensus - is the fact that his intellect is of dubious quality compared to just about anyone else...Originally posted by eagle:first a wanker

You also know you only know how to repeat your own postsOriginally posted by Gazelle:Eagle, I dont think I need to repeat myself.
So now we see your tactic all over again right? Putting out an old photocopy of your previous posts when you don't have the balls to answer questions right? In addition, with your poor analysis and research skills, how true do you think your post is? How many facts and posts have been you misunderstood and distorted? You could even put the links out for everyone to take a look you know? And I challenge you to do so. Do you have the balls to take up the challenge, post the links, and let everyone decide on how you like to do selective understanding? Or are you just as ball-less?Originally posted by Gazelle:I only have issue with people distorting figure and facts in this forums
Come on Gazelle, just as you have challenged so many people to answer your questions, you don't have the balls to answer just one question from me now? -
I'm extremely tickled (from his selective understanding and distortion of facts and posts) by the life story of me he posted outOriginally posted by walesa:The only thing of concern - and which is probably already known by consensus - is the fact that his intellect is of dubious quality compared to just about anyone else... so much so that I just have to share it with everyone, and to the point I put it in my siggy It was fun to have him spent 30 mins to compile everything for me to use less than a minute to put it in my siggy. Commendable effort by Gazelle
We see the same tactics by him over and over again when he cannot answer questions. You will see that he will continuously escape answering your questions when caught. Other than that, he will resort to name-calling (without any proof of his name-calling) when he knows he's at the losing end. So when you see him calling you names, you will know he is unable to defend himself anymore. Do you call this a sore loser? -
Walesa,
By quoting what I said, it only goes to show that your perception of Temasek and GIC investment is like speculating on the stock markets where you can enter and exit anytime you want whenever the stock price is favourable. Beside talking about stock price, you have also failed to understand the longterm and strategic benefit in the investment.
If Temasek and GIC were to practise your speculative style of short term investment, GIC funds would have been long gone and they would have been banned from buying into blue chip companies long time ago.
By quoting the below statement, it only shows that you dont take into consideration the sequence of events that happened before and after the investment. Like I have said, armchair critics are only capable for demostrating how smart they are AFTER the event, not before.Originally posted by Gazelle:If you dont intend and need to cash out your investment, there is really no need to worry about that.

Walesa, please dont conveniently avoid my question. You are the expert isnt it?

Is that my perception or is that yours? Or are you confused again?Originally posted by Gazelle:Walesa,

If Temasek and GIC were to practise your speculative style of short term investment, GIC funds would have been long gone and they would have been banned from buying into blue chip companies long time ago. It is indeed amazing that your deluded perception allows you to understand my style to be speculative by nature when you can't even address your own questions... You're probably such a rare gem that you'd still fail an exam even if you were allowed to set the questions.
Forget about your "before and after" analysis - you'd do well to address the above for a start instead of darting round what would have formed the crux of this discourse... -
As a matter of fact, that quote wasn't directed at someone with a substandard intellect like yours.

your arguments are getting weaker over time and it starting to show your lack on understanding in invesment strategy.
Please tell us what do you know beside reading stock price? -
Well, for someone of substandard intellect, it is not surprising that he claims the followingOriginally posted by walesa:As a matter of fact, that quote wasn't directed at someone with a substandard intellect like yours. I'm still awaiting your response to your contradictory views before we engage in higher-level discussions...
1) 2nd year of uni to 4th year of uni = 2 years of uni time => lacks simple mathematical skills
2) Study uni needs to pay both tuition fees and exam fees
3) Go to the gym need gym membership What is SSC and sch gyms for then? => lacks research before his allegations
4) Training up needs his so called "muscle-enhancing" pills to do so. => lacks nutritional knowledge and research before allegations
Since he lacks both analysis and research skills, do you think he can engage in higher-level discussions? -
I know you know that I know you are incapable of answering to my questions and you are trying to big talk your way out of the situation.Originally posted by walesa:As a matter of fact, that quote wasn't directed at someone with a substandard intellect like yours.

typical wanker!! -

Your $50,000 is worth nothing, and you should be ashame of yourself. -
That is all you can say now after I have pointed out your so called simple maths and analysis?Originally posted by Gazelle:Eagle, please stop trying to defend yourself because it will make you look more like a bloody sissy wanker.
Your $50,000 is worth nothing, and you should be ashame of yourself. Gazelle, when all your nonsensical claims and analysis are out in the open, all you can do is to resort to name calling?
So tell me now, if it is worth nothing, why is it that you would spend so much time and effort to prove me wrong? You think $50k is a lot for a student?
Next, are you still unable to answer my question? You should be trying to defend you research and analysis skills now by showing me yours you know? Not trying to talk big like someone who knows everything, yet cower somewhere when wrong. -
spare some thought for your lau peh when you talk about "your" $50,000.Originally posted by eagle:That is all you can say now after I have pointed out your so called simple maths and analysis?

You should he ashame of yourself. -
everytime you talked about this, you should be ashamed of yourself because you cannot admit that your analysis sucks..Originally posted by Gazelle:spare some thought for your lau peh when you talk about "your" $50,000.
You should he ashame of yourself.
Again, I challenge you, are you to admit the loser in you if I can prove you wrong? If you cannot accept this simple challenge, you shouldn't even be talking about this
