Eventually, Everyone Gets What They Deserve

First I voted for 0bama, now I am long into a market crash. The world works with mathematical precision. If you would take a moment away from your retarded sports events to examine the miracles of climate and how life is able to sustain in the harshest environments possible, you would soon understand there is a certain design to this planet. At times, I ignore these designs and attempt to wing it, using intuition and good ole fashioned American grit as my tools. However, in the end, American grit looks like 0hio.

For the past two trading days, “The Fly” woefully underperformed a runaway market, ignoring all of the tell-tale signs of a market top, even my very own quant. Tomorrow’s losses will be well deserved. I will savior the loss of prestige and capital, as if it were happening to my dearest of enemies. To ignore the laws of reason, based around the calculations of mathematical precision, is a crime. I am being very clear with you. I should’ve known better, but now find my self (ignorant grammar error alert!) in a most horrendous position, in the back of a jam sandwich, AND MORE. I will not sell on open, for that would give me great relief through closure. No. Instead, I will sit idle, in my non-bullshit chair that was not purchased in Staples, with nothing more than a glass of water and eyes to watch in horror as my money dwindles away like intelligence in Louisiana.

        Friday’s close was to giddy and emotional for the longs and historically after five up days we are due for a pullback anyway.

        We will be awarded another chance to buy stocks at lower prices…go getcha some possibly after five down days.

    You will “savor” the loss of prestige…Over on twitter, it seemed like Scott was throwing in the towel on the SP 500 breaking 1140 and eventually resuming his target of 1040. It will be intersting to see if Chuck’s bottom call holds or if Scott’s prediction comes to fruition. I’m just staying long gold come what may.

    No, Fly (slamming my fist down on the table). I will _NOT_ have you sit on your tail this Monday morning staring dully at your screens.

    After drinking your glass of water you will clear your mind, go out there and do what you do best, finding the next winning trade.

    And then you will graciously share the idea with us. Once the trade(s) are deemed good, then at that point you can have some coffee as your reward.

    That is all.

    I was reminded of this particular passage from the 1st Market Wizards book by Jack Schwager …

    … from fly’s “Blog Title” !

    If you have NOT read Schwager’s Market Wizards books … I HIGHLY recommend you do so !

    They ARE CLASSICS !!!

    Kudos Fly. I love your blog.

    When I first started reading, one of the things that frustrated me about you was that you would change on a dime. One day everything was roses, the next you were out and it was doom and gloom.

    Then it dawned on me, this is the way the market is, fickle.

    I also love your honesty when things don’t go your way. I appreciate the fact that sometimes a real pro makes mistakes and you are man enough to admit them.

    Keep up the great work.

    I’m holding a bunch of shares of KAZ. The news today is that the stockholders have voted to sell and delist the stock and there will be two pay outs to the stockholders. KAZ has gone up a bit since the news came out. Should I sell now and break even or wait for the pay outs? I don’t understand this situation.
