Now Let Me Tell You What I Really Think of the EFSF

I refrained from opining on the EFSF because I know how to comport myself when in defeat. Unlike many of you, “The Fly” knows how to behave graciously when things do not go his way. Whether it be in a game of chess or the acknowledgment of egregious grammatical and/or syntax errors in a self penned manifesto, “The Fly” tips his hat and continues to fight the good fight, as any gentleman of stature would behave.

Having said that, it’s true this stock market is the biggest piece of offal to ever exist amongst mankind. The EFSF bailout is a complete fraud and you will understand this lesson soon, as Italian 10 year yields scream higher. The reason why Europe cannot bail itself out is because there is a nuclear bomb in a box, atop the altar of the Eurozone, and it has Italian words scribbled on it. Some dumbass German guy is gonna open it and the entirety of Germany will be distinguished. It will be quite the spectacle. Moreover, the idea to leverage 440 billion of imaginary money by 500% to purchase Greek bonds is insane. I hope you realize this main hypothesis of mine.

Aside from Greece, Portugal, Belgium, Ireland and Spain need help too. This is a little early, but Turkey is a highly levered economy and will die, soon enough. China is not Santa Claus and Brazil couldn’t care less.

Eventually, these chickens will come home to roost and my original thesis will be proven correct. In the interim, I will play the rape-tape and assume all is well, even though it’s not. It’s clear to me, the “powers that be” have a firm grip in the price action and it would beguile my good name to incessantly call for sheer panic. As a point in fact, I am not expecting a panic. Instead, I am anticipating a total snap and break of the equity arm of this tree of bullshit, all in due time.

Until that happens, stay flexible and as always, avoid those murdeholes.

    Is that Greg Solomon again? Dude is like a cat with nine lives, brought back for his tenth life, like the dollar.

    And I think you meant “extinguish” not “distinguish” no?

    Fly I want to give you Props for calling that Oct Rally Again and trying to warn me. Maybe one day you will tell me what you saw that day. Oh, Oh to put the cherry on the top tonight..China isn’t going to let everyone buy 10 houses again, they put that rumor to bed tonight. Now, I just need my Clam Spines.

      How ’bout TN’s run down of decent “nations” for Americans to explore.

      I liked Simon Black’s Mongolian insight here: http://www.sovereignman.com/expat/business-investment-opportunities-in-mongolia/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=business-investment-opportunities-in-mongolia (but am not so prejudiced. Having an open mind. Sky’s the ______).

        Blind..I use to have my Trading Diary at Stockpickr, in 2009 I spend a bit looking at Mongolia. Trying to remember my research at this late hour, As I recall Australia beat the USA to it. It’s either BHP/RTP that has a major developement project there..its rich with Materials. China of course has its Investment hands in it. Will go into greater detail later this week..today is Halloween and I have to go play..but thank you so much because I so love this stuff.

    Every time the futures dip tonight, they bounce, and then dip deeper (Unlike last week), perhaps this bitter cold Nor’easter is making money managers a glum lot going into Halloween Monday.

    Copper is down over 3.5%, all metals looking down.

    Because I learned the importance of the hedge from The Fly, I am well-positioned to absorb profits from both sides of this train wreck of a market.

    God Bless America.

      It’s good to see that you are an optimist:

      I am well-positioned to absorb profits from both sides of this train wreck of a market.

      A lesser man could see that they would be losing from both sides.

    Wall Street Journal:

    Of the 312 companies that had reported earnings as of Friday, Oct. 28, 2011, 77% beat earnings estimates, topping the 74% average seen over the past four quarters, according to data provider FactSet Research.

    Aside from humdrum trading on Friday, markets are poised to close out what has been a stellar month. The Dow is up 12% in October, while the S&P 500 and Nasdaq have surged more than 13%.

    Le Fly is correct. From here on out I am a both a chicken bull and chicken bear. I won’t put anything more than 15% of total funds in this market. The explosion, when it comes, will be spectacular.

    We should all rest comfortably because a JP Morgan spokeswoman said that “as policy they don’t vote their book” as a member of the committee which determines whether or not a country is in default. Lying pricks. Die quickly.

      We’re also just under the 200d MA so all the slopeofdopers are going to pile in short on this egregious technical break down. We might even get another decent pullback tomorrow for the “follow through” move the remaining bears are looking for. That would also scare the bejeebus out of those banking on a “first day of the month” rally (which has been a real dud since about March, but I digress).

      After all that, then our cocaine fueled rally can resume. Straight to 1450 bitches.

    Other than profit taking there is rather a lot happening today. Panasonic restructuring?? loss, Hugh Hendry explaining how he is shorting the China growth story by CDS on Japanese Steel makers and the Bank of Japan weakening the Yen.
    I don’t see the competitive devaluation being good for the stock bulls today.
