Getting Dicey

Lots of Dow components are getting splattered, which is causing the market to stall and fall. I’ve been busy looking for fresh ideas and found 3 or 4 worth my efforts; but put the buys on hold, considering this sell off. I am also having second thoughts about investing my cash altogether, due to market uncertainty.

We are long overdue a correction. Let’s be frank with one another, shall we? The whole premise on this bull market is based around lies, deceit and corruption. We’ve accepted market manipulation as being “part of the game”, no longer fighting it because we’re greedy pigs. I do admire those who’ve been able to withstand the bull market and stay short or on the sidelines. They are stronger men than you and I. These people are convinced of an inevitable and fantastically catastrophic disaster.

With that in mind, it’s time for some food. I might eat some canned tuna, like a gato. Or, maybe I’ll eat a few greek yogurts and some grilled chicken. I’m cutting again and need to trim 6 lbs, after gaining 16lbs. It’s a process. Don’t bother thinking about what I just said.

    Now I see why you don’t like suits, your weight gain must make them uncomfortable.

        Sorry I misread your original comment that you didn’t want to wear a suit. My poor reading skills led me to believe you didn’t like wearing suits. My apologies.

    I am hearing lots of comments from people, real people who are absolutely pissed about 0bamacare and what it has done and is doing to their checkbook. These are main stream middle class Americans that have jobs, work hard and try to save up $$ to invest and retire on.
    The ACA backlash from the American consumer is not being accounted for or reported and I think at least some of that is being reflected in the markets.

    To be frank, this market’s really fucking annoying. How long does it take you to lose 6?

    So is the idea to eat a lot of calories, bulk up, that is, put on muscle and fat, and then cut the calories and lose the fat while keeping the muscle? Enlighten, Sir Fly, this is strange to us
