Gone Fishing in a Cesspool

Once again, the crappiest stocks known to man are running. They are sprinting, if I may be so bold.

Thus far, I’ve bought a few turds, namely [[BIOF]], [[AVR]], [[VSE]] and [[FNSR]]. However, my watch list is far more extensive. Quite honestly, it is appallingly iniquitous.

[[CKX]], [[MXC]], [[FPP]], [[QTWW]], [[TMY]], [[LNG]], [[EWST]], [[BDCO]], [[IVAN]], [[ENA]], [[ROYL]] and [[CNR]].

While you’re at it, keep a close watch on: [[MPET]], [[FUEL]], [[DNE]], [[END]], [[GGR]], [[AEZ]], [[BMD]], [[URZ]], [[JDO]], [[BCON]], [[OMNI]] and [[GSX]].

If you notice, I only selected energy related turd, thinking speculative “dice rolling money” may find its way to the lowest grade energy stock, with oil near $130.

The bigger picture is much lower equity prices, as a whole, in the near term. So, any gambling done on your behalf should be executed with extreme caution and in very small numbers.

    Appreciate the good work on VSE and FTK – I’m in on both. Originally, you had posted VSE as a “play,” I’ll be curious to see how your thinking continues to unfold there. Wondering if market/sector shifts or perceptions could lead to VSE evolving into something more long term than short term?

    I’ll have you know, “The Fly” spits on the average “working man,” unless of course he has a white collar.

    Do you, Sir, wear a white collar?

    Corn is bouncing off critical support; I would hold out on the ethanol play until you get confirmation on the futures market; that is off course, if you didn’t get in last week.

    Fly, are you thinking about re-shorting FED? We can’t break through critical resistance at $17.50.

    I will short more FED north of $17. That has been my thinking all along.

    More at 17, then more at 20, if needed.

    I agree on Corn.

    I am early. Hence, the reason why I am up 20%. However, should corn break from ethanol, the spreads for the ethanol producers will widen—sending stock prices through the roof.

    CubsRock-Homies tanked last week (or week before) when the housing bill went down so will they go up now if it gets passed? Doesn’t look like it so far. I thought they would be + today but I am watching.

    I’ll have you know my collar is a lovely shade of mauve, brushstroked softly emerald and patterned with an understated eloquence. If one were to see my collar – they would be compelled to say – ‘How exceptional, how sophisticated you are good sir!’

    Here is an idea, buy WMT here near its 50 day MA

    I think WMT is poised to regain its old highs of $65 sometime this year. It’s a “safe” place to put money.

    If you dont like charts, just know everyone and their dog will be shopping at WMT when gas cost 5 bucks.

    Seems like you have been buying the stock that the director has been selling in FTK.

    Either the director is an idiot, or he knows something you do not.

    Please. If I were to go by what insiders do with their holdings,I would never be able to buy stock. They always sell.

    It has no bearing on my decision.

    I go by other things.

    WM:

    Mexicans built my house and they’re “illegal.”

    Upon completion, I had them all deported.

    BTW: Your collar sounds a big gay.

    I, myself, have a diamond encrusted collar with emerald and ruby accents.

    Appreciate the thoughts on ethanol — I was in for the 20% bump up — holding, not adding — I’ll be following it closely.

  17. Don’t forget SKF – “skiff’em”. BTW, the iBC symbol is trademarked by “The Fly”, LLC and any unauthorized use of or facsimile made of said trademark may result in an egregious loss of money on your part.

    Fly’s collar sounds more gay ala Liberace than WM’s ….

    Just saying ….

    BTW, I understand that ethanol is a Costanza play but with reports from Iowa of late plantings due to extreme wet conditions, isn’t it somewhat premature?

    Long IVAN since last fall at average pps of 2.25. Their big deal (allegedly) is HTL process which converts heavy oil to light oil in an environmentaly friendly way. Yet to sign any contracts…supposedly close, which mat be why it’s moving today on good volume.

    Two questions seem to haunt this stock: Is HTL the real deal or is it all a bunch of hooey? Is the big guy Robert Friedland the greatest thing to ever happen to Canuck energy, or does he make P.T. Barnum look like a piker?

    If you grab this for a momo trade, good luck. Otherwise do some really good dd and share what you find. GL

    Turds —

    I like that TMR!

    Nice “action” the last couple of days, not disimilar from the “action” I saw in Vegas.

    Degenerate-gambler wise, I mean.

    _______________

    Flash anecdote — Sitting at the blackjack table with all my brothers (I have many) around 1 am in the morning, when a lone drunk sits down next to me in the left corner seat, declaring he is “Ron Cey, on third base!” I ask him if he’s from Los Angeles, and he looks at me in that confused, almost hurt way that problem drunks do, and says “huh? Naw, I’m from Colorado.”

    Anyway, this guy proceeds to order three more “Seven and sevens” (he is quite literally blind drunk already), and then starts throwing $100 chips around like they’re pennies. The fucked thing is, he is winning like crazy, and cackling with delight, which of course pisses off almost everyone at the table.

    I finally get out of there, relatively “break even,” and leaving our celebrated third baseman behind with a mound of black chips in front of him…

    The next day, we’re in the sports book room waiting for the Preakness to go off when who should enter, but “Ron Cey” himself, with a pack of his friends. He sits down about two seats over and I say — “Hey! Ron Cey! Did you put that DP down on the Vegas condo last night?”

    He looks at me like I’m crazy and gives me one of these sheepish “Do I know you?” queries… I said, “Dude, you were sitting next to me pounding me on the back for about an hour last night at the blackjack tables.”

    He goes… again, sheepishly… “HERE?”

    And I’m like “Yeah! You were banking coin to a ridiculous degree of difficulty all the while in a drunken haze…”

    I finally get his embarassed story from one of his friends… He’d wandered off shortly after we’d left, trying to find a bathroom. Upon finishing his business, he never got back to the table (said later he couldn’t find it), and so left the dealer an over one grand “tip” of black chips.

    Vegas, baybee!
