Last month, almost to the day, the markets topped out–leaving bulls strewn across Wall Street, like some sort of degenerate trash. The fat faces on CNBC didn’t know what the fuck was going on, but I did. Over the past two weeks, markets have stabilized and surged into light volume, tryptamine induced, gluttony.
The bad news (fiscal cliff, really fucked up economy for another 4 years etc) has magically morphed into a catalyst to drive stocks higher–based upon the hopes of a deal. But you know our government, always opting for the dramatic course of action instead of the logical. We have elected monkeys dressed in fancy suits, who throw bananas at one another and ask us to clean up the mess. They intend to “tax the rich” in order to “create jobs”, spearheaded by unions, who will then finance their reelection campaigns. It is the ultimate circle jerk.
So as the markets figure out that the fiscal cliff is not only a risk but a reality, I strongly suggest ‘vamoosing’ out of high risk plays in exchange for a “Hugh Hendry” styled portfolio.

Amazing how the richest, most powerful nation on earth is managed by a bunch of lawyers turned politicians who received a C- in poly sci 101 at a junior college…
Tryptophan ???
Poly-sci is more about mass marketing and focus groups and charisma.
FB likes helicopters.
quote of the day by david faber..”people storm the stores, to buy stuff from china, that will end up in a landfill”
and they wonder why this nation is in a secular decline…I don’t
…and yet, if they didn`t, the economy would collapse…..the sham is exposed.
sadly its true.. read the book, ‘your money or your life’
he explains the history of how we got to where we are…fascinating stuff
i don’t think the fiscal cliff is that big problem .,. no more then last year .. and the political party in the end will convey on making things go and sustain recovery
sayin “no” to recovery is just too risky . for both parties .
Fiscal cliff is just an excuse to try to get suckers to sell before the next big rally.
DDD and DECK big winners today!
DDD-Shorts are getting their balls crushed!
Sold my DDD today, up 12% in one day is amazing!
3D printers in everyone’s stockings!
Not true. A deteriorating economy creates the opportunity of more control because of the belief in “it’s all Bush’s fault”.
Oops, this was suppose to be a reply to Francesco.
so people will see obama proposing whatever to make recovery faster while seein someone else itryin to screw off the recovery of the nation via fiscal cliff.. mmm is very unlikely this will happen .
i’m sure gop and tea party is not playing with his own reputation that much
Bernanke has made it clear, under Obama rule there shall be no more bear markets.
i’ve stated before..this market is never going down again..period..end of statement
never say never
we will have a nice slow recovery mode … with alt energy push and medicare topping, and in the years to come obama will be remembered as 1 of the greatest presidents of the u.s.a. .
All Hail Thee!
play accordingly 😉
No question about it. He singlehandedly pulled us out of the depression, and he passed universal health care.

I see you are an avid Pravda reader. Who did you prefer,
Gorbachev, Yeltsin or Reagan?
It’s actually a toss up between Nikita Khrushchev and Ivan Koloff.
Sung to the tune Haitian schoolchildren had to chant under Papa Doc’s rule:
“Ba-rack Hus-sein O-bama yay, President for life…”
VHC and YELP strong today
The monkey looks like Ernest Borgnine.
