The Age again has one of Marcus Padley's light weight reviews of this year's market. Mr Padley assumes the only way you could be up 24.6% this year was to own 7 key stocks in the ASX 200, well Marcus there are plenty of traders/investors that have beaten this figure & not held any of these stocks. Yes another light article for the "Mums & Dads". Marcus should try reading a few Charlie Aitken articles to see what a good article contains. Sorry, Marcus your report shows -25% again for 2009 on your efforts as a media person & I suspect not that positive with the real money . Regards Buffett
