So you’re sitting there drinking a fine glass of chardonnay, perusing the fashion section of the NY Times, and up comes some brutish jerkoff from Brooklyn. He queries: “yo, fuck face, yoos short stocks or what?” Startled by the poor grammar and gaudy gold chains, you retort: “I beg your pardon. As a matter of fact, yes, I am short of U.S equities. Now if you would excuse me…”
BAM! He then punches your glass of chardonnay (95 rated, RP) into your face, then walks away.
That’s exactly how this market is behaving, rude, belligerent and woefully ignorant. We are in a new paradigm people. Attempting to gauge the market using old methods is equal to using an abacus to figure out complex trigonometry problems.
The dollar hasn’t even begun to decline. As a matter of fact, it was up last year. Wait until the municipal crisis hits. Count on egregious bailouts, followed by another raising of the debt ceiling. This is end of days financing, folks. I strongly recommend stockpiling heavy bags of rice in your garage while you can. If the inflation thesis starts to play out you will see outrageous increases in the price of gold, silver and commodities. If you think cotton is expensive now, look it up in 3 years, then come back to this post to let us know how it played out.
In summary, I am heavily positioned to profit from inflation. I am long MOS, AGU, NGD, EXK, GTE, KEG and ATPG.
As an aside, the Seeking Alpha crowd is panning CCME again. Let me make this clear: I am not long the stock, but harbor extreme disdain for this pizza delivery boys posing as analysts on the internet, posting shit to manipulate share prices. I have NEVER seen anything like this in my career. These clowns are operating with impunity. The stock gapped up $2 this morning, so some schmuck who is likely short the stock combats the move with an unchecked allegation of fraud. The result: the stock reverses $3 to the downside. Un-fucking-believable.
You probably don’t care about it now; because it’s not happening to your stocks. But, believe you me, this sort of renegade journalism is dangerous and should be looked into immediately, starting with the trading records of the authors.

Do I have to start dieting?
Did you say diet?
First!
What is this about electricity?
Fly, PWER is trading below $9. Where would you recommend pulling the trigger and loading up on this name? Ragin posted recently that he felt it was one his favorite long time plays. Also, another poster, LogicalThought, has posted a couple of articles on Seeking Alpha, and is a poster here. What do you all think? Thanks as always.
Nope. Don’t like it.
WOW! MOTR up 34 % in 9 days!!!!!
Developing…? That must mean HE LOVES EK!!!!
BUYBUYBUYBUYBUY
Fly, you once owned KNDI. It is getting hammered! Do you have any interest in this stock? Is this company legit?
Don’t like it.
Wondrous column, as usual, Fly. Great truths combined with great laughs.
CCME – As posted last week been playing the opposite side of the media on this with Feb 14 calls sold this a.m. 2.35 now .85/1.00 – trying to reload for the next spike!
Time to get long the next cotton ie…. BURLAP!
He spilled my Wine all over me. But Ben B says we have no inflation problem at all, I saw him on TV, he said that global inflation was the problem of other countries that just can’t handle their own economies as well as He is handling ours. That is why QE is working so well and causing no problems but just rainbows through out the world….have to go and pour myself another glass of wine.
Good picks. Good thesis. We are on the same page–and, in some of the same names. Best, G
Thanks.
Concern over trading journalism but not over Goldman Sach’s rampant corruption? Something gone haywire?
I love Goldman. Don’t forget, you are talking to an industry pro, not some fuckfaced outsider like yourself.
What U love, I would imagine, is their efficiency? Which is indeed a sight to behold. While it seems Taco’s problem is with their ethics.
Good synopsis of my view too. The rules which allow(ed) what they do are the flaw. The creation of those loose laws that created the derivative market is the criminal act.
Plus it makes me nervous that they have such close ties with almost every central bank on earth.
If anyone cares, this guy seems to be doing a pretty good job refuting the seeking alpha “authors.”

I have no idea if CCME is real or not. I am 90% leaning towards real, but mostly I am just in awe of the spectacle.
Market has gotten too easy.
Buy the Thursday/Friday morning dips then sell the Monday morning rip, collect 3%-5%. Rinse. Repeat.
Work 3 days, take 4 days off.
Something is bound to change…it is too good.
Testing. Trying to see, if I keep the same name, will my comment be posted sooner?
Yes, it will. Okay, that answers that question.
So why are we up today? Is it just POMO, or did something important really happen?
And don’t give me some crap takeover as an excuse.
I think it was the reading of the Declaration of Independence, followed by the complete butchering of the National Anthem by Christina Aguilera that got everyone feeling giddy.
Although I did enjoy watching Fergie.
POMO of course. The banks are floating on oceans of money. May as well buy stocks with it.
The Black Eyed Peas need to stay in the MTV Studios.
They suk live.

@ Jake, Indeed. However Chuck would make sure he was looking away ever so slightly before deliverying the blow. Especially with only having one half way decent arm these days.

chuck
Ah, the old “misdirection!”
Works every time.

THe wild card is Europe. If they blow first(which is likely) then there could be one more rush into the USD.
Good names Fly. ME likey.
Benton-Lane Oregon’s Pinot. A hidden gem for the Fly community and hopefully the Wine Advocate.
