THANKSGIVING SURPRISE!

Not too much different than “surprise sex,” North Korea has shit upon your Thanksgiving Day dinner. That’s not black truffle on your dinner plate!

There are no words or explanations for sudden war, just days before America’s most holy holiday. It’s like a sick joke of sorts, upping the level of difficulty of this tape by a factor of 1,000. ,”Sure, let’s throw those baboons a fucking war to deal with, sponsored by a fucking lunatic with nuclear weapons,” said the perverted stock God. I guess this is how the playbook goes: FULL EMPLOYMENT via egregious war. What’s next, dust bowls and locust swarms?

Sell all Korean names. I have a post with keyword and domicile search up in The PPT.

Lucky for me, I step into today’s trade with a 35% cash position. Do not envy me, good sir, I am simply above your pay grade.

With all of the bullshit taking place in Ireland and now Korea, it’s probably best you avoid the market in the near term. Granted, I will not heed my own advice. I will likely buy some shit today or hedge via FAZ or SCO. Nonetheless, things are about to get interesting.

    If the weakness this morning is all due to Korea, why were the Asian markets down over 1.5% long before N.Korea even fired the first shot?

    This is bullshit. Nothing is going to happen. Kim’s young kid just wants some recognition on the world stage, that all. The kid is feeling his oats and dad thought it was a good idea to let his have a play around.

    Anyways, dad needs some money and the South was been mean in the festive season.

      No it’s tanking because of the higher GDP. Everyone was hoping for it to be revised down below 2% and it unexpectedly rose from 2% to 2.5%. So everyone’s selling on that good news. Korea is a positive.

    Here’s some bad news for you Macau gambling types.

    South Korea seems to be making up the largest growth prospect right now. India is a distant second.

    The LVS/WYNN lovers may wish to reassess some prospects.

    Ladies and Gentlemen iBC is proud to showcase….
    The V.King’s TOP 10 Rock and Roll Songs
    #5 Sympathy For The Devil (special thanks for Trader Caddy for throwing everyone off by guessing twice)
    Rolling Stones

    The lyrics were inspired by The Master and Margarita, a book by Mikhail Bulgakov. British singer Marianne Faithfull was Mick Jagger’s girlfriend at the time and she gave him the book.

    The original title was “The Devil Is My Name.” Says Jagger: “Songs can metamorphasize. And Sympathy for the Devil is one of those songs that started off like one thing, I wrote it one way and then we started the change the rhythm. And then it became completely different. And then it got very exciting. It started off as a Folk song and then became a Samba. A good song can become anything. It’s got lots of historical references and lots of poetry.”

    Other historical events alluded to in the song include the 100 years war (“fought for ten decades”) and the Holocaust (“and the furnace stank”).

    You will all go to ruin if you try to coddle your pet market positions. Every soothsaying TA is expecting small correction and then a resumption of the pre-Thanksgiving rally.

    This global market is ripe for a clawhammer to the cranium. Stupidity can’t cheat sound wisdom.

      Never forget that one of Al the Kada’s goals is to hamstring the US economy. I would say they are doing a pretty good job. Better to ignore the bastards and tell them we will nuke Mecca during the Haj if they ever pull off another 9-11.

    Actually, I think the stopping by China Govt of Loans to Ag Speculators was a bigger attack on the market. But no one is watching that one. Buy, you know, you bulls are going to try a rally attempt off of FOMC minutes at 2pm, plus POMO profits hitting the market about a half hour later. BUT TOMORROW, no POMO and a tough bond auction could be fun.

    How bad can a war be with N. Korea?
    I have seen all of the MASH episodes.
    There is golf in the brush, wild nurses like Hot Lips, fun guys like Radar and Klinger, gambling with Sgt. Rizzo, and football games with Hawkeye and Trapper.
    The only enemy I recall was wrong way Charlie who couldn’t fly his plane straight.
    Looks like fun.
