Market abuser Chris Oil modestly claimed that he was better than Warren Buffett when it came to stock selection. But it seems that the Sage of B&B had a rather bad month or two. In fact his losses on just three stocks since early July appear to be almost £0.5 million. Given that Oil reckons that his family discovered the North Sea, this may well be small change to the Sage of Fantasy, but we suspect however that it is not.

“I have no positions in any stocks mentioned” Really?

I’m surprised if this is the case. Although anonymity using ShareProphets name makes it difficult to know.

Sure mummy will top it up if little Cwissykins makes a booboo on the nasty stock market.

I think it’s a bit mean-spirited to revel in an individual’s market losses, even if that individual is a total plonker, as in this case.

This gloating article reflects badly on ShareProphets.

All: If you claim to be better than Warren you deserve your true record to be exposed.

“Diddums”? A remarkably unprofessional and childish response.

Given that Mr Oil has form for being particularly nasty (on ADVFN alone wishing one poster died of the cancer they were suffering from, and offering to rape another poster’s children to name but 2 of his memorable tirades) he deserves every gloating comment like this!
