Well done Noah. Not only did you provoke Aziz into writing a full post, but you managed to provoke a full response from Tyler Durden:
"Hold on, hold on, hold on....
You mean that work which we thought was nothing short of fantastic pastiche, and which we got a hearty chuckle out of, was not a self-satirical, sarcastic grotesque?
You mean to say that a 6th year Econ Ph.D. student can come up with numerous extended paragraphs worth of "conclusions" based on a google search as the only primary source data?
You mean that instead of doing some actual due diligence like clicking on our very prominent conflicts/full disclosure policy (featured on the front page for about 3 years now), the author decided to take a stab at coming up with a (far less witty) one?
You mean that he was not writing about StockTwits, which actually pumps trading recommendations every second based on whichever way the wind blows, but was in fact writing about Zero Hedge, whose actual "recommendation" on the stock market since the summer of 2009 has been a simple one: "stay out" as anyone who has actually read it would know...
... You can not be serious man.
Oh wait... This is what the author himself says:
It really does not have to do with the specific information content of Zero Hedge (although a casual glance tells me that most of it is probably crap).
As yes: nothing like confirming all our fears about the frail state of the Keynesian dogma indoctrinated into young, impressionable minds, where one derives conclusions based on a "casual glance" about what one is actually writing about.
Carry on then (and don't forget to name drop #Zerohedge now and then: think of all the clicks to your website you are not getting)"
