A fire broke out at Wester Refinery’s El Paso shit house today, lending to the sell off. Shares of OPEN, LOGI, CVI, ATPG, OXY, and others, were down staggering amounts of dollars for me today. I know your reflex reaction will be to either annoy me with “I told you so’s” or offer encouragement with “you’ll get em tomorrow scooter.”
Frankly, none of that matters.
The market tricked me and I read the tea leaves wrong. Fuck you for telling me to “move on.” I don’t fucking move on and I do not change my demeanor because some asshole told me to. I will absorb these heinous and barbaric losses like a man. Apparently, it’s my fucking turn to be wrong and there is nothing that can be done about it. The stars and the planets are aligned against me, whether I attempt to short silver or stay long commodities or pick bottoms on cheap as fuck tech names. None of it matters.
See folks, I’ve been in one hell of an upcycle for 9 years now, making millions and priding myself on calling the market on a dime. It’s important to know when such a cycle is coming to an end; I see it now. Don’t get me wrong, there will be plenty of opportunities for me to “make a comeback” and spit in the faces of my detractors, even the secret ones. But, for now, I will sit here, eating almonds, drinking wine (something I never do during work) and absorb.
A great man once said “I’ve made my bed now I shall lay in it.”
