I think you'd be surprised at how many non-traditional sources are used by large firms to evaluate deals and markets. However, to each his own. I've been a fan of several "nut jobs" and their rantings and I've often found those opinions more valuable than the knowledgeable types in the ivy towers. Fringe thinkers are those that offer real insight not found at the consensus level.
To point, the herd isn't betting huge on CTIX at this stage in the game. Too many unknowns and counter logic things going on... one question for example: "if Brilacidin is the cure for the majority of bacterial infections, why hasn't a big pharma bought it up and why hasn't the market reacted more positively?" It's a valid question, no? But I don't think the answer is knowable.
However, those of us who are betting big in CTIX think the market will come around at some point. That line of logic is certainly "fringe thinking". It's the same with my views of the economy and the market. I'm okay being in the minority, it's served me well for many years. Economic theories are just that, theories.
It's my goal not to derail CTIX centric conversations today so I'm officially hanging up my economic and market discussion shoes.
