HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Let the festivities begin. Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, I’ll have you know.

This is the last weekend to sign up for the iBC Investors Conference. We have 15 seats remaining.

I sold nothing and hold it all into next week.

Ciao

    Commodore Fly – Happy Halloween. This would be the perfect occasion to invite our friend Zombie to entertain at the House of Fly without violating any boundaries…

    On this slow afternoon I caught up with “The Important Matters Of..” The plumbing debacle was nothing short of hilarious – to read that is.

    Happy Halloween fellow iBC gents.

    I’ll be spending the evening in the neighbors driveway as they have planned for us a “Halloweeen Bondfire.” A bondfire in the driveway, I am certain is some sort of egregious act of indecency especially with hundreds of children prowling about the neighborhood. I am expecting the worst. We should put together a post of Twitter / Instagram handles of the lurkers and subscribers here so we can follow each other (no homo). I’d like to see how all of you are spending your holiday.

  7. rigged game

    The lying cocksuckers on CNBC claim they bought stocks long, mid-month on Oct 15 and 16 (after the Dow had plunged ONE THOUSAND POINTS in the first half of October, a notoriously DISMAL month for stocks.)

    Since market corrections are normally 20 to 30%, and big declines like early October usually precede further major correction, WHY the fuck did these people buy?

    The 200 day had rolled over and the 100-day had made a death cross. They should have been SHORTING like I was, looking for Fall 2008 scenarios.

    I don’t get it. It’s a RIGGED GAME.

    WETF-What a remarkable recovery today! With an announced 2.7% dividend based on yesterday’s close, 100m share buy back program and BOJ’s asset purchase program makes WETF a great long term hold IMO!

    The Ironman top is in. That crash in the Mohave rang a bell that actually rings. The Jetsons was a fucking cartoon. While waiting in the Walmart parking lot at midnight for the EBT reload. The shoe shine boy is long robots and flying saucers.

    WETF! What a remarkable day for WETF! With the announcement of a 2.7% dividend, 100M in planned share buybacks over the next 2 years and with the injection of the BOJ, money will come plowing back into the WETF’s DXJ etf! I think this is a winner! Up 26% on Friday!

        There’s no need to try and explain Alf. We realize it’s like a birth defect. Something you are powerless to change or affect.

    They are the epitome of lawlessness. At least this administration that is. Feckless and striving to achieve only their own political ambitions, they are cast about by public opinion like the wind blowing the leaves off the trees this time of year. They are useless in terms of leadership and solving the problems of this country.
    Only lightly behind the Republicans……….

    You’re a smart man, Alf. Pay no attention to the Faux News watchers. But traders have to be Republican– or pretend to be– if they want to fit into the most popular club. So maybe you should just pretend to be Republican. It’s less trouble. Try it and see.

    Politics is tribal. It’s like your diehard team fan, who wears the jersey of their team even when it’s not football season. They’re not going to be interested in objective facts or logic. Their team is always wonderful & right no matter what they do. Yours is always bad & wrong.

    That’s what all the political discussion amounts to: “Rah rah for my team.” Of course no one ever changes their mind.

    Well, you could pretend to be Republican if you wanted to be popular with most traders. But what was I thinking. You obviously are not aiming for that.

    The Dems have really fucked up here. That stupid bitch in Louisiana was the last straw. Even Bill Maher is bitching about the progressive fascism that suddenly hates him too. This election is over. What is the trade?

      Progressives aren’t perfect, as Bill Maher well knows, with his penchant for saying politically incorrect things. But he donated 1 mil to Obama’s re-election campaign and has no regrets. So he definitely believes that Dems are the closer to perfect of the 2 major parties. The video of his latest monologue on the subject is here:

      What is the trade? As usual, it is fading what Zero Hedge says.

        The trade could be long Coal and/or Energy short Healthcare. Bill should have studied the French Revolution before funding his own dick guillotine. Rabid dogs will always eat their own.
