Protect Your Mustaches

I’ve been thinking about today’s stock market “debacle”, while devouring the best food known to mankind. Then it dawned on me: we were only down 40 points. You fucking n00bs. Check this out. Are you listening? I kan spall chit wrung al dey lung an steel git mor traffik then u. I could write like a complete imbecile and still check in at 40,000 page views by this time tomorrow.

Do you know why?

ANSWER: I’m “The Fly”, motherfucker, while you’re just some guy talking shit.  See pal, I make shit, while you just talk it (it really was not meant to sound as disgusting as it just did). I don’t even proof read this shit or “brainstorm” for ideas. I just flow, like the Earth shits into Louisiana.

Everyone is so fucking concerned with stock prices. There is so much apprehension, due to bonds yen and a stalling U.S. economy, that a plausible and likely counter-trend rally is setting up to smash your fucking balls in with a meat cleaver. I’m not talking about some bullshit IKEA meat cleaver either. I’m talking 1950’s style hardware, pal.

Here’s the set-up:

Bank of Japan wakes up and helps push yen lower, which will RAPE all current momo players, leading to a full scale route on the currency. As a result, the NIKKEI will spring board higher, as well as most Pac-Rim indices. U.S. markets will be fueled by the deflation of the deflationary treasury bubble, oddly enough. And, finally, GDP data will be benign enough to support a late year rally. Nonetheless, we still go lower in September. But, this shit is building up; trust me when I tell you: PROTECT YOUR FUCKING MUSTACHES.

In the meantime, I will continue to play both ends of the trade and support a 15%+ cash position.

        To Do recommendations from a local: Del Mar races, Balboa Park (Prado is a nice restaurant in the park), hike Torrey Pines overlooking the ocean, and best beach is north off Encinitas Blvd called Moonlight Beach. If you have kids, you will probably get stuck doing the zoo and seaworld tourist stuff.

        I am concerned with the GDP revision this Friday, Kyle Bass thinks 1% or lower.

      The Fly is Anthony Bourdain. The Fly is actually a good writer whiling away his time trading until he strikes his “No Commissions” cable TV show. But, hey, I’ll be a fan of his show.

    It feels worse than the -40 we ended up with because it was.
    The indexes did not show the damage going on, most stocks look like shit right now.

    I think Scott’s expectation of a gap down tomorrow is correct even though it’ll probably get bought.

    …so a gay guy walks into a SD bar and says to the bartender, “have you seen the Fly?”

    The bartender points in the direction of a distinguished gentleman sitting by the window with a view of the harbor, furiously eating rock lobster and sea bass, while washing it all down with multiple cups of coffee.

    “Good sir, may I sit with you?”…

    “Fuck off, pole smoker”, said the distinguished gentleman, gulping down his fifth cup of coffee, while avoiding eye contact. “Can’t you see I’m busy?”

    “What is THAT?”, asks the homo erectus in a friendly, non-confrontational sort of way.

    “Listen up, fuckface…this is my devastatingly profound market plan to amass whatever equity is in every pikers margin accounts, as I baffle and confuse them with my brilliant blog posts….get it, dipshit?”

    “Ooooohh, that’s EXCIIITING!!!” ….”Can I watch?”, says Herr Rump Ranger.

    …..developing….

    It may take longer than we think, but it looks like you’re right on the money, fly. At least the pressures are there. Maybe this will take place later in September, and be the catalyst for the rally off that drop?

    We’ll bounce, but it will (and should) be sold. We seem to have an increasingly orderly market that has decided to bet on a double dip. If your bias is short, the market has been behaving well since we broke out of the rising wedge. In any case, VXX in this scenario is not the best play – – the market is no longer shocked by declines. Time to short stuff.

      61% retrace of July/August move and 7/20 support – both being tested this AM, should make for a nice bounce from right here – or after the bad housing data is out of the way.

      Eurozone PMI (manufacturing) has slowed to a 2 months low edging to the trough of awhile back, no jobs story ongoing, D.C is clueless and out of touch, and it’s raining at Martha’s Vineyard so Obama can’t play golf.
      That being said blue chips are still holding record cash, the spread between dividend yields and treasuries has to be at or near a record, and the wrong way public is out of equities and in bonds.
      If I was day trading (and I am) I will watch for market reaction to the 10:00AM existing home sales.
      Everyone knows it will be bad and the homies will continue to reflect this up to the announcement.
      If they are bad and the homies don’t go down, I will be in XHB,ITB like Elliot Spitzer on a hooker.
      If not, I will go practice my putting.

        Putted yesterday w. a persimmon core putter. Best putter I ever tried, by far.

        Caveat: I am no golfer.

          Jake – if you like the persimmon putter, I’ve got a set of Tony Pena persimmon blocks Model 12’s that are the cat’s meow. I take them out once a year just to screw with the 20 something kids at the GC. They can’t believe the sound of wood hitting balata. I can still touch 300 with those tiny wooden blocks.

            Guy I was playing w. yesterday owns a company that makes ’em exclusively. The putter, however, is a hybrid — Titlest (I think) metal body with the core only being persimmon.

            I have used all kinds of putters.
            I have used my son’s old Scotty Camerons,Never Compromise,Bettinardi,Ping (he gets free clubs from them and Bridgestone).
            It doesn’t matter because I suck at putting.
            At least I know it.
