I don't think he is intentionally trying to dupe anyone. I do know for a fact that as much as GS appears to be sharp and steeped in DD and has an answer for everything, he has taken a powder on several stocks. He has lost more money on other stocks, more than the BOCX losses anyway. So how smart can he be if he is misreading or miscalculating, buying high and selling low? He says he lost $150K on BOCX, to give you perspective. That's not his all-time top loss is what I'm saying.
