Someone on the list recently suggested that we should cast a jaundiced eye on
Stan Weinstein's book because of his poor market performance. I wrote to the
Hulbert Financial Digest (they track newsletter portfolio performance) and
below is what they had to say. It looks like he missed the bull market
entirely, which I find surprising considering his emphasis on technical
analysis.

So, what do you think? Should we toss out Weinstein's ideas because what he
writes is not supported by real-world performance? (Katherine -- any comment?)
