Mcdonald’s is active in killing people through their food. As a result of their “success”, the shares of MCD have soared and will likely trade higher. Recently, the slobs from MCD re-introduced the McRib. YUMMY!
Basically, the McRib is a piece of shit, mixed with pig innards, organs, tongue and lots of salt– all glued together and pasted on a bun. It’s entirely poisonous and will likely kill many people.
The stock market bears similar qualities to the McRib. It too is a piece of shit, cobbled together by the glue of the Federal Reserve. You eat it because you like money, similar to pork aficionados devouring multiple sandwiches of McRib.
The commodity trade is dead. The tech trade is dead. The bank trade is dead. Tell me, what trade is left?
ANSWER: McRib.
It’s rather ironic, is it not? I don’t mean to whine about the trials and tribulations of investors; but the whole matrix is broken. Look at GS. If that doesn’t spell trouble, I don’t know if trouble exists.
Once again, we’re diving lower. Money is getting airlifted into TLT because systemic failure is ’round the corner, courtesy of Europe.

Fuck this shit.
That is all.
The US is full of metrosexual prisses worried more about diet and exersize than a bunch of middle-aged women at the hair salon…
That’s the Boomers for you.
I imagine you have a scotch in hand and are smoking a Lucky right now?

Vs. being a pot bellied walking heart attack?
I will vote for Paleo, Dead Lifts, and looking good naked….:-)
What’s so bad about that?
Leave a reply, I’ll pick it up later… I got a pedicure scheduled for 1:30 followed by a brazilian wax job at 3:00.
As much as I want to see BAC at 0, they probably will move (manipulate) above 5
Could be the potential bottom for the week
At least the Chick-fli-A cows are happy when the McRib comes out.
The super size me dude turned out to be a hoax. But people like the idea of the movie anyways.
If people didn’t die social security would have no chance at solvency.
What was the hoax? I always thought the premise was retarded. “Hey look I ate 5,000 calories a day, at MCD, and I got fat!” Yeah, that’s because if you eat 5,000 calories a day of anything you will get fat.
“”Super Size Me” Reality Check
Morgan Spurlock did not eat “three meals a day” at McDonald’s.
It’s a hoax.
He really ate the equivalent of six or more meals every day, and snacked.
He forced down 5,000 or more calories every day.
His caloric intake was two-to-three times the recommended daily limits for adult males.
According to his own website, he spent $8.75 per meal at McDonald’s, not per day, but per meal!
$8.75 at McDonald’s is enough PER MEAL to feed a family of three.
Therefore, he spent $26.26 every day to feed only himself at McDonald’s.
He stopped exercising. On purpose.
He sent McDonald’s an e-mail on March 21, 2003 praising the Golden Arches for its “leadership”, its work to “create and deliver healthy alternatives to their customers” and how “McDonald’s is committed to the healthy future of America”.
Why weren’t these facts, his own words — included in his movie?
Many individuals, including journalists, have independently conducted real “30 day diets” at McDonald’s ? 90 meals, not the 180 or more that Mr. Spurlock consumed. These credible “30 day dieters” have gotten dramatically different and dramatically better results. That’s because their 30 day diets stayed true to their premise ? 3 meals a day ? and included choice, variety, balance, physical activity and a healthy dose of personal responsibility.””

Thanks man. A few months ago I watched a documentary on Netflix (streaming, no less) that was a rebuttal of sorts to Supersize Me…called Fat Head. He actually ate just fast food, only he kept his total calories at a normal level, focused more on low-carbs, and he lost weight. And he didn’t just eat salads or anything like that either.

French Fries and Hamburgers are not healthy for the body…even once a day, week, month or year.
This market still blows, goodbye cruel world! I am off to consume McRibs till my heart explodes. Shouldn’t take long
A little know fact:
Kim Jong-il loved the McRib. He had a full sized authentic McDonalds restaurant dismantled, shipped and reassembled in his basement. Of course he also kidnapped the entire 24hr trained crew to staff the place 24/7 so that he could drive thru, any time day or night and order authentic McRibs.
This he did, several times per day for the last 6 years.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Poor dumb bastard.
Sometimes, I wish we still had the thumbs up apparatus on this blog.
Instead, you will have to make do with an imagined golf clap.

That is a good one.
Question: Did he also kidnap a Ronald McDonald?
Still 85% cash with a bit of FRFHF and TIPS. Both green.
Low risk stuff.
Not willing to put on shorts here.
MCD has been a great candidate to sell options premium on. I predict a January hit though. There’s only so low that yield can go. But two of my best performers this year…MCD and PM. F everyone’s health, if people want it they can have it.

You guys know that McDonald’s only brings back the McRib when pork prices get low, thus maximizing profits? Pretty brilliant.

Disgusting
“Basically, the McRib is a piece of shit, mixed with pig innards, organs, tongue and lots of salt– all glued together and pasted on a bun.”
LOL, Classic Fly!
All those $PCLN buyers are hatin’ life today. That stock is a turd on a stick.
My precious $GOOG, on the other hand,is going to $650+ when market comes to life (IF)
Meat glue, really:

The market is stick chasing “The Cloud” man.
Give me a break, what’s next? The Moon?
i saw something like that,where they glued some shit together and wrapped bacon around it and tried to call it a filet,and people eat that shit.made me sick just watching it being made
You subscribe to The Week?
no
Periodically they bring back the McRib, they do a bunch of advertising around it, they draw some folks back to their stores. The ‘protein’ insider there is no worse than most hot dogs you might buy on the street, and organ meat is really good for you, even if it’s seemingly kinda gross. A really cheap, well balanced and healthy food for you is pet food for that matter.
As I sit with my carrots and Green Tea, I keep warning you that living off Clams can’t end pretty…yet you continue to eat McClams everyday…it has to end at some point, and that you end up healthy on this junkfood is all a bit silly hope. It ain’t happening.
Nymph:
A hospitalist doc I know told me three things keep them in business:
1) Smoking
2) Drinking
3) McDonald’s
(not necessarily in that order)
God Bless America, lol.
Honestly, there is a total conspiracy by these analysts, as the money managers are in collusion buying up their preferred stocks as they recommend and/or beat-down others.
I’m short MCD as of last week, so have a bias, but did you know they do more business in Europe then the US? and China is their primary growth driver? As a play on slowing China growth and EU recession you would be hard pressed to find a bluechip US-based name with more exposure to these 2 markets. I also shorted YUM too.
GE?
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-11/ge-sees-sales-growth-in-emerging-markets.html
nah, GE is not even close. 71bil in revs from US, 32 from EU, 21 APAC.
Look at the bright side of the McRib, it only has 500 calories plus they use a flour bleaching agent used in making gym mats. You just can’t get these quality ingredients anywhere.
