I rarely post on HC despite being a member for a few years now. Fat Bloater, I have seen you challenge many posters to provide information to refute your arguments, which some do while others respond with vitriol. However I have yet to come across any predictions of yours in real time, just gloating after the fact.

I'll admit I haven't done my due diligence by trawling through every post of yours for the x number of years I've been following hotcopper, but I have perused quite a number of boards where you crop up frequently. On this board you have consistently posted negative comments with no substance behind them, just snide remarks. I would enjoy hearing a reasoned and detailed argument from you as to why someone should short TPI. Could you please enlighten the rest of us plebs as to how you generate your 'investment thesis'?

And I would also be very interested in a true report timing of your short positions. If that's not too private/embarrasing.
