Bounce Week

I am going out on a limb here, declaring “bounce week” to being with today’s trading. If you are looking to reposition into this tape, lucky to have avoided the recent sell off, do not be tempted by small cap garbagio. There are plenty of good quality names, at a discount, for the picking.

Names like FLS, CLF, OXY, JNPR, CMI or even JCP interest me.

In the event the market continues to get flushed, the damage to your portfolio will be less than heinous, if long some big cap names. Should you opt for a smaller cap portfolio and we continue to spiral, I wish you Godspeed and farewell.

      If you let me borrow your crown, you could talk with more “ductile” facility. Just a thought, you can keep your PM mask?

    Anyone out there think that huge student loans are by design, an entrapment for “voluntary” military conscription in the next few years?

      how’s about the flash rioting thats happening in chicago on the tourist’s on the mag mile. maybe these kids that are just becoming 18, the judge’s should make mandatory of enlistment into the army,or better yet, the marines, send the all over seas where they think they are bad ass. some will come back, ,but most wont. i cant think of a better way to thin the herd.

        In fact, this used to be an option. If you were a teenager and in trouble with the law the judge would give you two choices: Jail or Army. Then, the hoods would either became STRAC or put in the brig, separated from society. Can’t do that now, it might hurt their feelings….

    Whoa! Wait just a minute. Does this Larry Summers quote from the FT mean what I think it does?
    “The central irony of financial crisis is that while it is caused by too much confidence, borrowing and lending, and spending, it is only resolved by borrowing and lending and spending.”

      all by design,imo. instead of competing with china,the resolve was to bring the middle class down to chinas’ level,.as you can see,it’s not working. create a bubble in housing,while no one pays attention to the real unemployment #’s, then crash housing, and waa-la,every one’s instantly poor,instead of 21 bucks an hour,YOU’LL TAKE 10, AND LIKE IT………..OR STARVE !………………..THE REVOLUTION WILL NOT BE TELEVISED

      Now that it’s broken $ 31, I’ve entered a “sniper-scalp” put to the next $ 27.50 support floor. I expected market rally today, it’ll probably hit tomorrow and I’ll be red in the face. But, then again, lots of volume in CHK, so I’m willing to buy-in today and peal my profits tomorrow morning. We’ll see, maybe long this week if the Bulls return (as it’s been a S&P co. for some time).

      P.s.: I rode this baby through Katrina, quite nice I might add.

    Greece just won’t go away.

    This is serious shit people. We could see another global panic right around the corner: Is this the next Lehman Brothers?

    Stick with the bond traders folks. This problem is a lot more complex then what the black boxes are telling you. This disaster is structural and it’s not going away.

    Agreed Fly, A bounce is due. My bet is it will start with a flush, first, to put the stupidist of traders into overvalued shorts and allow the smart folk to exit cleanly and reposition. Big Money knows there is panic brewing, why not instigate a little, and buy at supreme valuations 20 or 30 SnP points lower. Just my guess. We have a weak close that leads to a gap down to open in the next couple days. It aint worth more than my measly 18% short exposure that i’m looking to cover into such a flush. Been holding said tiny short since SnP 132 and change. otherwise, sitting in the almighty dollar. Good lordy.
