I Don’t Short Dull Markets

Based upon the laws of mathematics, the market is going higher, at least in the interim. Members of the illustrious PPT have been alerted to oversold conditions in both TNA and SPY and know, full well, we are due for a bounce. Whether this bounce is caused by news or rumor is immaterial to me. What is important to note is nature of the market, tethered by certain rules, invisible to the common eye.

A great many of you think you know things because you look at trends lines or have done rigorous research into the shadow banking system. The truth is: you are amateurs. Try doing this for more than a decade, successfully, then get back to me, pal.

Instead of reading this shit, wasting time on the computer, you fuckers should be cold calling. Do it with a smile. I hear the smile can be picked up over the phone, whilst closing someone for 1,000 shares of FB.

EXK is down again; but silver is somewhat stable. This is what I expected, after seeing yesterday’s dump-out. I am down 6.8% from my initial basis. As planned, I will double down at -10%.

To be honest, I don’t want to put anymore money to work here, ahead of the EU summit. Those people suck. I will gladly accept some easy fought gains, with a light allocation, than have to sweat out some currency crisis, depending on the caprices of Queen Merkel.

      I just joined PPT, but I thought the market hybrid had to be below 2.3 to be oversold? What am I missing?

        Are you looking in the “user notes”? Have you been getting my notes about TNA/DIG/SPY?

        Also, overall OS is 2.45. But it’s not that clear cut. There are rallies to be had, especially when other signals of high probability present themselves.

    To settle the debate about which party is better for stocks (copy and file this!)

    Stock Performance under Republican and Democrat Presidents
    Percent change during administrations

    Hoover –79; Eisenhower 129; Nixon 1; Reagan 117; Bush 1 51; Bush II –40

    Republican total 179 percent gain in 50 years

    Roosevelt 194; Truman 58; Kennedy 44; Johnson 17; Carter 28; Clinton 210; Obama 65

    Democrat total 616 percent gain in 47 years.

    Dow Jones Industrials used for Hoover-Roosevelt-Truman; S&P 500 for the rest

      Obama should campaign on this, but the man hates Wall Street success as a topic.

      FLAWED!

      It’s not about who the President is, but the Congress. AND since the Republicans didn’t take control of Congress til Bill “Hillary Care” Clinton was in his third year your point is ill conceived or just a bad Democrat talking point. The Fly has asked quite eloquently to bring your “A” game…you have failed.

        I don’t give a shit who controls Congress.

        I gave you ninety fuckin’ years of data on how you would do in the stock markets during the time a PRESIDENT sits in the office.

        And you are a fuckin’ FOOL if you don’t buy stocks on the day a Dem is inaugurated and hold them until the day a GOP takes over.

        Anybody who owns stocks should pray that a DEM is in office while he holds them. That’s why you clowns who want Romney in are fighting the odds.

            Identical thought that V.King so plainly said. One does need to consider congressional branch. It’s impractical to factor a judicial branch assessment.

            Also, your tabulations would need to be based on a particular benchmark (omitted carelessly or purposefully).

            Finally, how do you aggregate your percentage basis and according to which time durations.

            My charts don’t match your outputs.

            Good day.

    Why are retail stock winners (TJX, ROST, DG) in last place on a 10+ S&P?
