The Fly is Dead

I haven’t looked at my monitor all day, ever since it decided to castrate me. I understand the President had a CNBC townhall meeting today. Fuck the President. “The Fly” is officially dead. You may all address me as “Charbuckle Wilson” for now on. I will move my family down south and open a chain of novelty shoppes. I will name them “Charbuckle’s Stuff.”

I am prepared to let VXX go to zero. As retarded as that sounds, I’d still be up 5% for the year—if that shit really did happen. The bottom line is I am beyond mad. I am an angry man with steam coming out of his ears. This recent market run, which was predicted eloquently by all other iBC bloggers, is like a perpetual car wreck for me. The sick shit, I’m still driving the fucked up, mangled car, doing 100mph on the freeway. People gawk and point and say “holy shit that guy should be dead.”

One word: SEATBELTMOTHERFUCKERS.

Okay, Charbuckle is leaving now and will not bother reading any blog comments, for the lifetime of this blog. Do not bother asking “Charbuckle” questions, for he barely knows English. I now leave the integrity of this blog to you, the unwashed people from the internets.

See ya’ll the fuck later.

    Get the fuck outa here, as usual I’m sure you’re winning, even though it appears you are losing. Hey, maybe this move is part of the maximum 2% upside you referred to on Friday. The Fly is always right, even if it appears he is wrong. I’m picking up some TZA today as a reminder of that fundamental mathematical certainty, besides, I’d like to avoid having you buy my margin liquidations later in the week.

    I can get you a lease on a corner of a parking lot of a Waffle House (about 2 blocks from Disney entrance) to sell Charbuckle’s stuff.
    You can have a big umbrella to protect yourself from the rain and sun.
    Plus you can eat all of the pecan waffles and double order hash browns smothered with onions that you can handle
    Hey, even McDonalds started with one location.

    Hey guys, before you start giving yourself wedgies, seppuku-style, know that “The Fly” is not dead. He is merely morphing to another one of his alter egos until he plans his next move (or blog post). This market will not keep him down and out for long.

    The Fly is actually winning, even when he appears to be selling Charbuckle trinkets from the trunk of a 1986 Plymouth Duster.

    Long live The Fly.

    Well, at least the disclaimers such as “if you buy this stock a basketball sized meteorite will fall out of the sky and hit you in the nuts, and you will lose money” are there. About 2 years ago I followed you into FZA Fly. That sucked. My next fly buy (although smaller in size) was this recent TZA at about $31. I still like you. But I think I’m about done with inverse ETF’s. I’ll let TZA float for a while just in case, since your personal account is up a trillion percent, and my exposure is relatively small. I still want a vindicating Merlin to tell me that Charbuckle’s stuff went out of business due to the market realizing shit stinks, forcing you to re-take the reins of your infamous website.

    No doubt this market will eventually sell off. It just doesn’t want to do it right now.

    Tomorrow is Turnaround Tuesday, so you bears rejoice and take heart that you may have one day that is yours. Use it wisely. I do not believe that we are overbought in the fullest sense of being ‘overbought’, since sentiment is still leaning negative.

    There’s too much cash still on the sidelines and on corporate balance sheets that is putting the fear of God in the bears.

    We’ve seen share buybacks initiated all year now, and now we’re getting an uptick in M&A., along with bump ups in dividends This is a shift in the mindset of corporate boards, as it is reflective of longer term thinking and strategic planning. Of course, the CEOs and all their management team and consultants could be dead wrong and we get Great Depression II.

    When/ if we see insider buying pick up dramatically, I believe that will be the final confirmation that what many are calling a stupid, nonsensical rally, is actually the real deal.

      By then it will be too late for these losers to make back what they’ve lost by being negative. They may have won some small battles, but they are losing the war right now.

        Don’t forget the dollar. It is getting continually weaker and has failed to manage any strength during its latest sell-off.

        As long as the dollar declines, bears will be skinned.

    We’re getting at least one 40 to 50 SPX pullback within the next month. At that point, ES wold be sitting at 1080-ish. That would be a good time to capitulate, not way up here.

    Im seeing more short capitulation chatter than I saw at the april 2010 highs. Extremely Bearish omen.

      Aussie was up cuz of RBA Stevens comments last night about rate hikes, the RBA minutes come out tonight. When OZ is in rally Loonie normally follows. The Swissie was strong cuz swiss bank was buying it against the GBP…the OZ rallied the miners last night…and made the Tech MoMo’s think Global Growth is still the play.
