GOT THE TIGER BY ITS TAIL

I sold SOL for a horrendous percentage loss. I don’t have time to mess around with chinese solar burritos who manage to miss estimate by 89 cents.

With the proceeds, I added to an already massive BALT position. The size of my BALT is now equal, on a percentage basis, to FTK, YELP and other thesis plays of mine.

    Just happy I bought a grip of EGLE yesterday at the open, playing of the BDI and adding to my shippers with BALT. Almost makes up for this devastating loss in SOL.

    Thanks for the BALT info. The DRYS CEO’s profile made me loathe shipping stocks so long

    Bought some ABX,SLW for a trade.
    Reason: Gold just plunged and these two just sat there.
    Plus ABX is down only <1% and this while a physical gold capitulation going on this AM.

    Also out -15%. YOLO trade that it was, not an enormous hit – still a nasty way to start the morning. Done with SOL and its ilk for the time being. Burrito delenda est.

    The SOL play was a joke. Happy with BALT, but sorry to follow you into what was indeed a horrendous loss. What sort of legs do you see BALT having?

    I’m concerned by some of your sol comments. What sort of weighting was it?

    By the end of the shipping cycle, BALT will be trading at easily 2X BV. The whole sector is STILL ridiculously cheap. Wish I had free cash to buy more.
