RUMOURS OF A COLD WAR HAVE BEEN GRAVELY EXAGGERATED

Russia isn’t invading The Ukraine. Russia isn’t doing anything, but practicing ballet and playing the piano.  War has been reserved for the savage barbarian tribes of North America, whose space alien technology permits them to cast a very wide net on an even winder swath of territory, mostly for sport, sometimes for freedom.

Stocks sold off earlier today due to inbreds spreading rumors of a Russian advance on The Ukraine. More importantly, momo stocks, like SALE, were getting the business all day long. Very simply, this is how hot markets behave. You get devilish swings and evil short sellers gunning for your favourite names with “retard strength.” Ignore these periods as mere “child’s play” and take up a game of chess instead.

We are in the midst of a fantastic bull run. There will be setbacks; but I am convinced, on the lives of you and all of your generations to come, that the Iron Curtain Wall at 1,850 will be penetrated, with extreme violence and perversion, very, very soon.

For the day, like a slob, I lost 0.9%–thanks to reversals in SPLK and SALE.

  1. Hideous fibs

    I wonder if Russians report a near invasion everytime a U.S. Border Patrol edges the Canadian or Mexican Border?

    Dr. Fly, I realize my street cred is now zero, but I have to say this: How in the hell can you continue to sully the distinguished halls of iBC with ol’ Blue Eyes, now that it’s been established (via Ronan Darrow) that he swallowed in Woody Allen’s sloppy seconds?

    How can this not start a cold war? Of course one would have to assume the old one had ended. The defense stocks are strong as an iron curtain.

    Why is everyone (including Le Fly) citing Eastern Europe for this afternoons selloff, if you can even call it that?

    Want to edit…”cite any rumors/anything related to Eastern Europe…”

    Was just simple profit taking, which quickly bought up by smart money.

    Senor Fly does any of the blow off and blow back moves in the momo names concern you? Is there any such thing as a parabolic move in the new normal? Obviously grandma has it under control but this action is what it is.

    Let’s see if Putin moves beyond Crimea. Not sure what happens if he does to be honest. Lot of rhetoric. Beyond that, we’ll see soon enough perhaps. Putin had no qualms about moving into Georgia years ago, although not apples and oranges as that was a separatist nation and I believe Russia still claimed control although it was not nationally recognized, and already had their “peace keeping” forces there.

    Nice one Fly. It’s really just a case of new pro-Russian prime minister of Crimea, Sergei Akseno asking Putin “Understanding my responsibility for the life and security of citizens, I appeal to the president of Russia Vladimir Putin for assistance in guaranteeing peace and calmness on the territory of the autonomous republic of Crimea,”

    Forget the Ukraine. What the fuck is up with gang stabbing 29 people to death? China has some fucked up problems too.

    Fly, I’m afraid I must differ with your opinion on this one…
    Ukraine is reportedly calling up it’s reserves. Do they expect OBAMA to help their pathetically weak army stop the overwhelming Russian army??? Hey, Ukraine, here’s a SPOILER ALERT of what Kerry is gonna ‘do for you’ soon:

    General rant-

    I don’t like the dumbing down of the Internet. Seems many sites are increasingly designed for brain dead morons gazing at smartphones with the attention span of a gnat.

    The US Census used to have an excellent site. Now it’s information display seems to be virtual, with pages created from user input from a central database, after the navigates an unintuitive menu of data fields.

    They don’t want to make web pages anymore. They want to maintain a single database and have the web site server create virtual webpages on the fly.

    The IT people must be very proud of themselves. I call it garbage.

    Meant to say “after the user navigates ”
    and its rather than it’s.

    Best regards
