The Very Worst Seasonality is Upon You

Both August and September are the worst months for stocks. Around this time of the year, I always plan to go on vacation, in my head I sell all of my stocks, and take a break to avoid the tomfuckery. But I always get sucked in, thinking “this time will be different.” After all, the market has to buck the trend sometime, right?

WRONG.

We are going the fuck lower and I will not be fooled by this faux rally. The markets are near new highs and earnings have been the worst in a decade. What the fuck am I missing here?

Everything seems to be very calm and cool. The summer breeze rifling through your hair, as you trade from your Ferrari, speeding with the top down, doing 250mph. Next thing you know, your car transforms into an accordion against a titanium wall, crushing your stupid fucking face like a pepsi can under an anvil.

“The Fly” shall not be tricked, not this time, not ever.

    FAIR QUESTION:

    Is The Fly a better trader or writer?

    Coin Toss IMO.

    get your small pumpkins (no grenade) ready to throw at the market. Post halloween should be a good time to get back in when everyone is spooked because of the ghosts and goblins of the Obama new taxation crash (no Biden)

    Even a crane won’t crush this fly. Howeverthough, titanium walls would, like a can crusher, homemade, closing in on all sides, incrementally, steadily, effortlessly, vaporize a stiffy poured liberally in a jiffy.

    Well weak Aug/Sept based on Monsoons and Europe Vacations is the normal pattern, but Clams at Jackson Hole can always mess up my nice bearish trend…I hate clams.

      Who fucking cares and what difference does it make?– approximately, NONE, at this prudent juncture.
