Down the Sewer Pipe

Fuck you CNBC for putting that fat fuck Phil Lebow on teevee today, talking up the auto sector. That’s the last fucking sector, in the whole entire world, I’d want to own here, save some bullshit Chinese burritos fraud stocks. We’re down 8 straight days and now many of you asshats are going short? Good luck. I suppose, to a large extent, it’s all a crapshot.

The only redeeming thing about this whole mess, for me, is witnessing Obama and Congress fail, on an epic level, in trying to turn this economy around. They are sitting ducks, dead in the water, future ghosts.

If I was 100% long today, I’d visit my friends office and punch the shit out of his sheetrock, in an uncontrollable exhibition of rage, then calmly walk out as if nothing happened. It’s days like this that makes me want to throw firecrackers at people or slap pedestrians in the face with hot slices of pizza.

If this market trades down tomorrow, that will make 9 straight days down. This is a KARL DENNINGER, ZEROHEDGE, DOUBLE BLUE BLAZER, APOCALYPTIC dive lower, no safety net. If you are a bear, this is your chance to kill everyone and eat their brains. You must pray for state failures and civil wars, famine and pestilence. Throw in a little epidemic, and I believe this market can go lower.

In the meantime, like a fucking idiot taking an MCAT exam, I sit here waiting for someone to give me the answers. The mood is outright morbid and we need Uncle Ben to get his “press on” so we can feel a little bit better about ourselves.

    Complacency and hubris have finally caught up with me. I zigged this week when i most certainly should have zagged. Down 4% on the day and there seems no end to it.

    Time to go home and figure out how not to lose all my money as the world falls apart in front of me.

          tonight i will be recoiling like a turtle into his shell…i just need to get home, survey the damage, and make all necessary adjustments.

          What kills me though, and it is indeed killing me, it that I am going to need to liquidate quite a few long positions. I hate to do that after a 9-day drop like this….because you know what comes next and what i will miss.

          But you just never know when it will be 2008 all over again…

        No. I just expected an end of day bounce and it didn’t come. Rather than hold overnight like a deer in the headlights, I sold out. Tried to catch a bottom with a small size, didn’t pan out. Take the loss, don’t let the trade become a millstone around my neck.

      Tell that to all the auto workers who are making cars for Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Honda, Nissan, Toyota, and now, Mitsubishi, right here in these United States. They didn’t need any bailouts by Emperor O’Bama either.

      Not to mention Electrolux, Siemans, BASF, etc, etc. Do you know how many global foreign companies have plants here paying high dollar jobs to guys just like you?

          When you say “left the US,” what do you mean?
          |
          Shitty low value added factory jobs like the textile trade in South Carolina? Good riddance!

          All those jobs have been replaced by higher paying, higher value added manufacturing!

          The result? South Carolina is richer.

          You need to measure what’s important. 200 years ago, 90% were employed in agriculture. Do you bemoan the loss of all THOSE jobs too?

        My mind didn’t comprehend what that meant at first and I figured 2.1 was the PPT reading. Then I realized you are in fact somewhat human (junk DNA and all) like the rest of us, and a losing day is possible even though you wear an S on your chest and wear a cape, froliching through romania on occasion, while otherwise walking around in burlap sandles and white robe, burning the shit out of chicken and nearly your face while making time during the makets for sandwich throwing at trader servant and all.
