Bulls Take Their Bone Back

No need to dance on graves. This was a faux rally, led by big oil and a handful of momentum names.

Today, AAPL and CN were big winners for me.

However, the headline of a late intra-day reversal here may lead to a follow through day tomorrow.

I bought a little FMCN down here, down almost a 10 spot.

Ridiculous.

Without a doubt, the elimination of the uptick rule has increased volatility.

In short, today was a minor victory for the bulls. There is still much work to be done.

NOTE: “The Woodshedder Bottom, part II?”

Fuck off.

    Hey fucker, I covered my shorts and puts for a profit before the market went haywire to the upside. All I have now is MVIS.

    Check the timestamp on your Ben Must Cut post.

    So you might want to revise the Woodshedder bottom…

    OK OK the deal, oil can pop over 100 but thats it, fundies are a bit out of wack, and the bubble that those french in the UK have created by bidding with their shiny eruo will die..

    A little late for these “lessons,” Cramer?
    I love how he “dedicates” shit shows to these “market lessons” AFTER the shit market collapses. Fucker, too late! Yesterday he advised against “buy and hold.” Tell that to folks who bought RIMM at 18 and AAPL at 7.
    I’m sick of that ugly, bald bitch.

    Gapping you think you can stop for that long.

    Financials probably have a trillion shoes left. Like owning telecom in 2000. Thank God for Tech.

    Right you are, kc.

    Financials have been building up a bigger closet than Imelda Marcos ever had.

    The more shoes that drop, the clearer the picture becomes. This is not a case of some companies having a bad quarter or two because business has slowed or because they made a big trade that didn’t go their way.

    We are learning that a big chunk of the business was based on a ridiculous fiction.

    NASDAQ at 5000 in March 2000 was based on the ridiculous fiction that there could be an ever-growing supply of investors willing and able to pay ever-higher prices for any company that put up a web site (or planned to), even if the price was economically absurd. The telecoms were several layers removed from that fiction, but that fiction was at the base of their boom and bust.

    Likewise, the financials were until recently based on the ridiculous fiction that there could be an ever-growing supply of people willing and able to pay ever-higher prices for a home, even if the price was economically absurd.

    Sure, there were models and tranches and swaps and insurance and ratings and so on to make it all look respectable, combined with leverage to create returns that could only be the work of Awesome Genius. But what all that financial wizardry really did was expand the number of intermediaries withdrawing fees and massive bonuses from the stream of mortgage payments that came through – payments that reflected what people could actually afford rather than some ridiculous fiction.

    So, I’m steamed at the people and the industry and the regulators and the media and the crooks that enabled the whole mess to get to the point where there is real damage to lives and the economy and where we have to choose between deliberate inflation and something worse.

    If yanking Cramer off the tube would undo the ugly mess, I’m all for it. But it seems to me that the story behind the little numbers scrolling across the screen should be the big distraction, not the crazy man above the numbers.

    Today’s rally was a joke. Internals were terrible. Market will be down over the next 3 days. Predict Dow BEAR MARKET sell signal will hit. No turkey for you bulls.
