Many of us value Mikes TA. For me personally it has enabled me to increase my core from 300k to 360k at no cost. Now a couple people come in to chase him away for what reason? Oh, they don't like his TA or his investment strategy. This is the FITX cult you've heard mentioned. If you don't do things their way, or see things their way, you are an enemy, a threat. I myself am FITX long, but I would never consider attacking somebody because their investment strategy wasn't the same as my investment strategy. Do your own thing, let others do theirs.
