Marinating in Blood

Let the market sell off a bit; who cares? Today’s bloody tape is good for the bears’ confidence. Let them get all huffy again, so that I may burn them at the stake later. It’s equal to letting a small child win a footrace. Run little bear, run.

I’m not ready to buy just yet. The sell off is too shallow. I have numerous positions getting punched in the scrotum and I view such assaults as “healthy.”

At the very top of my shopping list, on further weakness, is Sociedad Quimica y Minera (ADR) [[SQM]] , Cummins Inc. [[CMI]] , Equinix, Inc. [[EQIX]] and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. [[GMCR]] .

If you are a short term trader, with your dicks stuck in donuts over this sell off, do something about it. Do yourself a favor and run your positions through a virtual stress test, reducing their stock prices by 20% or so, and see if you can handle it. If not, you need to raise cash.

See folks, investing is not about making money, then taking your special lady friend to the opera for celebration. That’s fucking gay. Life in the market is about digging a trench in your front yard, in order to sneak attack your neighbor by offering him a 6am punch to the face, unannounced and completely unexpected. If you are trading like an imbecile, then you are a victim and will be treated as such.

Be a predator; quit being a pussy.

Bottom line: stocks are weak. Expect to lose money. Make sure you can handle it.

    Fly, I am a bit discouraged by the tape. Knowing that natty is controlled by the most corrupt among us, I watch CHK closely. The action yesterday was a “blow-off” top. Your favorite nat gas play, SD, opened way up, and got killed all day long. I honestly believe we are in for a nice deep drop here. It is time to become Tim for a few weeks.

    “Expect to lose money.”

    now that is refreshingly honest. Always a pleasure to read top-notch bloggery on a cum-fuckery day.

    the fly regards CMI as noble genteelmen, in fine hand-woven suits and wigs crafted from spun gold, that are being unfairly lambasted by the market selloff

    I have no fear about Fly attacking me because I don’t trade like an imbecile. The other neighbor (the evil one) had better worry because he is an imbecile. I caught him the other day trying to take off the Obama Hope and Change bumper stickers off Fly’s yellow PT Cruiser. I told him don’t do it again or else Fly, Jr will send some tennis balls through his front window.
    P.S. When Fly means his rocket ship he is talking about the PT Cruiser.

      I went back later and finished taking the bumper sticker. I now have it hanging above my bed. I look at it every morning when I wake up and relish in the fact that I got away with it.
      Steve, regarding the feces that you wake up to each morning on your lawn- it is not my dogs 😛
      Fly, if you don’t pay me for that sac of weed I fronted you I am going to move the hangover feces fest to your fucking lawn.

      Obviously you are a mensch, just like my neighbor. Unlike some of the mishugenahs on this blog (like Tim Knight) who are always kvetching about something.

    Come on…who didnt know AA were going to miss earnings? Seriously, what is the company’s batting rate? Ive read a while back in Bespoke that something over 60% they miss earnings.

    I am buying some GOOG on this dip, only because the Android phone is ALOT better than my Blackberry Bold.
