Pretzels and Hot Dogs

Sure, why not go up a hundred today?

When insanity prevails, reason is discarded like an old banana peel.

For the most part, “The Fly” is not hurt by today’s melt up. My FXP purchase was all done under $71 and SKF is up, mainly due to financial stocks blowing pole.

Unfortunately, I am not a big believer in this rally—considering how dumb and foolish Mr. Bernanke’s beard looks.

But, I’m not selling anymore tech or ag stocks. My only form of defense will come via FXP or SKF purchases. If “The Fly” were to” sell it all,” and the market went higher, he might be forced to sell hot pretzels or knishes, on a filthy NYC street corner.

With my money, I like the oils, ag and networkers, limited to CSCO, JNPR and FFIV.

And, of course, I will use this rally to buy more FXP.

    Hey Dude, cut it out.

    You’re not allowed to say queer shit like “woo, woo” here.

    This site is about sharp violent attacks on the elderly type, while caffeinating ourselves.

    That’s it. The market has no faith in the Bearded One. I am going into full hedge mode holding solid performers only (long). AAPL, BRK.b, APA, DBA, etc. I have put on short Future Hedges as well. This is not good for the longs. This meltdown of the meltup of the meltdown of the meltup tells me that…..I need a fucking drink. Bottom line, this poor performance after the open tells me the bears are not hibernating and the are on the prowl looking for the bearded on to rip him a new ass for being a weak, undecisive, poor communicative, global pleading bith. Put your hedges on NOW!

    Okay fuckers- let me ask again, since you were all so busy with your self-congratulatory wanking that you couldn’t answer me.

    Will the bulls give up if we gap and crap today?

    This is the Raptor speaking:

    It’s simply astounding – everybody still invested in this dog of a market was given a golden opportunity to unload today after last night’s hammering. Central banks cannot prevent recessions – jesus!

    When you trade/invest with your heart instead of your brain (Mr. Alvari40 being an extreme case) things will turn sour.

    Whatever, I’m not posting ever again on this retarded blog run by a man who lost 20% of his YTD gain in less than 2 months (my clients, of course, would never “allow” that)!

    Investing with my heart instead of brain? Not sure what you are talking about. I am still 50% cash and now have put on hedges for my remaining 50% long. I am a bull in my rants because I DO WANT THE FUCKING MARKET TO GO UP but my actions in the markets are based on a reasonable, rational assessment of the technicals and fundamentals. Hell, even if I was 80% cash, I would still be screaming for bullish moves. That’s all – now go away like you promised.

    so now you “don’t believe”?

    Again, do you have any kind of system or are you just another lemming that watches CNBC and goes whatever way the wind blows?

    Must be awfully expensive to trade without a system.

    Like people are going to bail out of China stocks the year before an election and Olympics. Nice call on FXP.
