Carl the Clown Breaks the Rally

Come on, you people are stupid. Carl Icahn says the market might fall and you all sell? Why do you think he said that? He wants three seats on your stupid board and wants you out as CEO. He’d rather pay less for your retarded company than more. Being flush with cash, after selling some of his NFLX position, he wants to buy back cheaper.

Plain and simple.

If I was in a $1.5 billion cash position, I’d tell you the apocalypse was ’round the corner and that by owning stocks you all but assure yourselves being eaten by werewolves.

For the day, I lost 0.7%, all thanks to that big bozo, Carl Icahn, telling jokes to the jokers on CNBC.

      I think you’re confusing the word “clown” with the word “billionaire”.

      For instance an Auguste clown may have exaggerated facial features aided by white facepaint and red triangles above the cheeks. Suspenders are a dead giveaway.

      Carl Ichan, on the other hand, is a powerful and successful financier, fund manager, who resides in a hyper elite class of businessman.

      Another tip is that while Ichan may employ clowns, clowns do not employ Ichan.

    Pretty amazing when the entire market can lose 10 handles due to one remark from Icahn.

    I bought some Apple on the dip end of day. If it drops below $500 I’ll add.

      If it drops below 500 I’ll cover my short (entered at 527).

      Not because I don’t think it is going lower, but I don’t want to piss away a $12,000 profit.

    Weird, my 130% long FXI position is treating me with much kindness. If this keeps up, i may make up for missing the entire US rally all year long.

    All hail our communist overlords!

    Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling.
    Merciless, the magistrate turns ’round, frowning
    and who’s the fool who wears the crown
    Go down in your own way
    And everyday is the right day
    And as you rise above the fearlines in his frown
    You look down
    Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd.

    GOGO went-went today.

    Amusing how the heads at CNBC are imploring you to “stay in” for the last 5% to 8%.

    They are having trouble finding enough bagholders.

    Carl is a straw man. They juice him up with ungodly amounts of Geritol, so he appears coherent on air, but in reality, he wreaks of Solonpas and spends the majority of his time roaming the office trying to find his pudding.
