Who’s Scared?

I bet you faggots were all worried and shit about some sort of apocalyptic crash today. You were sitting on your bullshit couch, watching your bullshit t.v., saying “OMG, I am afraid to even think about looking at the market tomorrow, it’s going to be a horror show.” While this may still turn out to be true, you have nothing to fear but fear itself, when it comes to the market.

The market is not a normal place to invest right now. There are so many hedge fund managers (I chuckle, not laugh, when I write this) going out of business, via prime brokerage seizures, it’s quite the midnight laugher. As for me, Mrs. Fly wants no part of this ‘idiotic stock market.’ She hates it. Actually, I think she thinks I am bullshitting when I say “Hey Hon, the market crashed again, what’s for dinner?”

As an aside, this morning I stepped in and bought a decent amount of [[UYG]] . Much to my chagrin, I’m already down. However, I am going to buy in increments. I will buy up to 300,000 shares. And, I will buy 100,000, mind you, on every point down. In other words, I do not think it will break $8. Hence, I am starting to buy here.

As for my other unhealthy/obsessive buys of National-Oilwell Varco, Inc. [[NOV]] and The Mosaic Company [[MOS]] , I cannot let them go. I will buy them, if I might be so bold, whenever the fuck I feel like it, quite frankly, as opposed to being entirely “unfrank” in this discussion.

In closing, quit being such a pussy, grab your balls, and start nibbling, like a small rat inside of a cave made from corn.

Top picks: [[TBT]] , National-Oilwell Varco, Inc. [[NOV]] , The Mosaic Company [[MOS]] , [[UYG]]

    That’s like Farmer Fly coming in from a hard day fighting the weevils and Maw saying —

    I want no part of this idiotic crop o’ soybeans!

    Mine isn’t. She checks the monthly statements to see what the capacity utilization’s like for the next round of mindless spending.

    People are looking at the price of oil, and the trend of it and going, damn, demand must be dropping like crazy, that means they must anticipate businesses going under, sell stocks, sell stocks.
    While others are saying, Wow, look at stocks drop, global slow down, no growth or need for oil, businesses will probably go under soon, that means that oil will go down, sell oil futures, sell oil sell oil.
    And then they see oil go down, so they sell stocks…
    It’s a perpetual cycle.

    Meanwhile, there’s Mr Panic, who’s selling it all.
    Eventually, over time, one of these will have to break.

    Bob Doll said today we’re in a bottoming process so long as the system doesn’t unravel.

    That’s a first. I’ve never heard a serious market professional qualify their investment opinion on the system holding together.

    So much blood…

    I try to get up but the head of my penis is pinned hard to the floor…

    By a knife!!!

    The pain – excruciating!!

    Worse than the perversion of my ideas by politbureaux the world over.

    Oh God!!

    I try to focus on the knife — and I read, on the handle, the symbol…

    A-U-Y…

    Oh! The agony!!

    The head of my penis is skewered!!

    So much blood….

    Not even an ass napkin will staunch it…

    Making a note here to adjust the pant size on my Christmas list for Fly and Chivas, they need “extra room in the front fly area”, ask saleslady if XXL tailoring is available.

    I am all long in my BS brokerage account btw, making a Costanza trade against the omnipresent fear.

    FLy said we keep going down until we don’t. we need an up day on bad news like I’m looking for on the stupid oil inventories.

    eventually the markets go up on bad news and then we look back and say “maybe its factored in”

    Then you have a bottom.
