I had a look at Notlambchops post history. Doesnt look sufficiently literate to be an FT journalist. More of a word salad type like Roach. We do have a track record of attracting the mentally ill. But Im sure its worse elsewhere.
Im always amazed when this comes up: as if a working journalist would have the time, let alone the inclination, to fart out 7000 posts here.
NLC was a professional fudder working in what was then the main traders pit to get the price as low as possible for as long as possible while he or his employer accumulated. He stopped (or rather transformed into other long con characters) when the bear market had run its course.
