What sort of psychopath (Bridgewater) is on CNBC right now? This guy is talking about being ‘brutally honest’ with employees, when in fact we all know that is a fucking disastrous recipe for creating an environment filled with assholes. Humans are sensitive beings. Many need to be coddled and their egos pumped up, in order to operate effectively. By creating a work atmosphere of unchecked honesty, you invite assholes telling you in the morning that “your tie looks gay” or “you are looking a bit fat, hun, about the face and ass.”
Who needs that shit before coffee?
Frankly, I don’t get the idea of expressing ‘true feelings’ in the open. The workplace was invented for liars, for the benefit of hucksters, in order to promote inter-office back stabbing and betrayal. Thus far, since the industrial revolution, this policy of concealment and plotting has worked wonders for the US economy. Why mess with a winning formula?
Let the games begin.
Futures are gapping down and european markets suck. You are expected to fear the unknown, the black abyss that awaits you in October. There are black swans hiding everywhere, readying to ravage your brokerage accounts and break up your tenuous marriages. The ADP numbers were good. But that data is completely fictitious and is generated randomly, by rogue computers.
As of this moment, right now, I look forward to absorbing a few losses in order to liven up the place. We’ve had it good for too long and some of you need to be woken up.

No plays for Ebola?

Why not? It’s like free money. It’s not going to get any apparently better for at least 3 months… cocoa will probably keep going up, same with TKMR etc.
wait until tekmira does a 2ndary ; )
Any hope of finishing the year positive for me has gone down the drain with the bunch of communists down in brazil….i should have never bet upon such a shiftless and ignorant populace.
Those people are like animals. You can’t trust stock markets based in hot weather climes.

Mind the gap.
My black abyss awaits???…I’d rather you tell me my tie looks gay!

KORS is up and GPRO down. Clearly the we are in the crapper. Of course that will change in about an hour because the markets gods love fuckin with us.
I once heard one of my colleagues at work ask a female “What’s wrong with your face today?” Amazingly, no HR consequences.
The only employees allowed to be brutally honest are the extremely old and accomplished… I recall an old gentleman blurting out in investment committee that “it’s really difficult to have sex with a catheter” and followed that up with “Mary is the hottest broad on this floor”. No consequences.
I just told a colleague that her “cock mop” (mustache) looked especially wonderful today.
ARWR bleeding from the neck, hold, or buy more?
I’m wearing a black T-shirt today as camouflage.

Junk bonds are the tell. HYG/JNK
Thought bids were the tell
Bids mean nothing in this age of HFT. They can pull those things in milliseconds.

Is PPT oversold yet?
Cheap fucker.
Subscribed for 3 years and got bit for a few times. Fundamental is more reliable.
Just read Gregory Morris book on Breadth Indicators and you’ll come up with your own PPT 😉
