Actually... I think @bruutz82 deserves credit for integrity and consistency to offset his patronising and abrasive style.

He has never tried to hide the fact that he plays advocate for his holdings.  And why wouldn't he?  On a number of occasions he has asked posters why on earth they would post on Hotcopper with disparaging, negative remarks about stocks they own!  He's got a point.  Why would you act against your own interests?!

I also don't think there's any justification in calling him a "ramper", when
a) he takes more effort than five average HC posters to substantiate his claims,
b) made no attempt to hide the fact he'd sold,
c) hasn't tried to create negative sentiment hoping to get a good buy-in point.

Like him or not, follow his trading strategy or not, if Bruutz82 makes a statement of fact you can pretty much bank on it being true.
