This is Literally Your Only Shot at Success

The stock market is more rigged than ever, thanks to the cabal of venture capitalists. Men like Marc Andreesen (sp?) and Frederick Wilson enjoy inflating the wares of their private investments, share their schemes with loyal friends and family, then dump them onto an ignorant investing public, courtesy of your local investment bank. When market’s disconnect, like they are doing now, this is when the layman, the ordinary goat herder reading blogs for information, can separate himself from the pack and score big wins.

The venture capitalist cabal couldn’t care less about public markets, only as far as its liquidity is concerned. They want to sell their “investments” at 100x sales and never look back at the damage they’ve inflicted upon investor psyche/purse.

STEER CLEAR OF ALL IPOs, for they are wrought with schemes and diabolical intentions to use you as a source of liquidity. The sooner the market starts rejecting IPOs coming public at 20x sales, the faster we can rid ourselves from being hoodwinked into the GRPN’s, ZNGA’s and ETSY’s of the world.

Seriously, when was the last time a stock came public, went up after IPO, and held its gains for more than a year? I can think of a handful: PANW comes to mind. But they are rare. The IPO market wasn’t always this fucked. Back in the day, if a company came public at 10x sales, that was insane. Now that’s value.

The only exception to this scheme is found in biotech, mainly because Mr. Wilson has no edge in the FDA approval game, which is why the best performing IPOs, post market, have been found in this sector, with overwhelming abundance.

I am harsh on the VC community because I hate what they represent. They stand for the worst type of greed, an avarice that is solely directed at taking advantage of the small investor, while ingratiating themselves with ungodly gains.

Fuck them.
