CLEANSE ME

You’re probably thinking “wow, that Fly dude must be really upset today”, seeing my top two positions, GPRO, YELP, get bludgeoned like this. However, you’d be wrong.

Everything happens in cycles and right now my cycle is on cleanse.

Dear Stock Gods,

Bring forth your fury with unabating vengeance. My methods by which I’ve achieved success are pure. Therefore, these trials by fire can only result in my eventual release from your grasp as an innocent man. Come hither and smoke a pipe, or maybe two, in my parlour, and I will show you who the true sinners are.

Amen.

That was my prayer just ten minutes ago. I am confident that my voice will be heard, as I am a messenger of the Gods.

Moving along, GPRO isn’t supposed to run up in a straight line, no stock is. Plenty of high beta names too to the bottle today. However, with a little time and patience, I believe we can achieve the century mark for GPRO. With regard to YELP, I said I’d buy it under $54 yesterday. I might just do that a little sooner than later.

I lost 1.7% today, without the help of being long JNUG. Remember kids, gold is a sandbox of retards.

    If The Fly is God, are you praying to yourself?
    On a side note, the comments sections from last month have been very entertaining to read again. http://ibankcoin.com/flyblog/2014/10/07/dont-you-dare-buy-this-dip/

        Also check for the Hortonworks IPO in the spring. It will be the first Hadoop company to go public. Started by the guys who started Amazon. They are a client of mine. This will be BIG!!!

            Correction: Hortonworks was started by YAHOO guys NOT Amazon. I apologize.

            Either way, these guys run extremely lean (compared to their only REAL competition – Cloudera) and are poised for something great. Stay Tuned on these guys. Shares are valued Extremely Low. PM if interested in hearing more.

    There is about to be a big opportunity in this market, I just don’t know where it is yet.

    Today was a day where they beat the piss out of the high multiple “Marquee” stocks like
    YELP GPRO CRM TSLA NFLX etc.

    The beatdown of these stocks was the equivalent of a 1500 point Dow decline day.

    It may or may not be an omen.

      Incometrader, GoPro is not a fad as long as YouTube is around. Everyone is obsessed with seeing themselves on tv. GoPro came onto the scene and took over the space. Sure, there will be competitors, but there’s plenty of competition with iPhones too.

        Very good. I just saw something about a secondary but then was too lazy to really look into it.

        I have moved into Grampa stocks and have been doing quite well…if things keep up I have a shot at breaking back to even before 12/31.

            I don’t think so…my biggest risk now is lagging returns. My “blowup” days are behind me…My account is less volatile now than the S&P, but my returns have been terrible…

            We’ll see….maybe next year is my year.

    A True Story …

    So, this past Saturday I make my weekly grocery store run for a few items and … Lottery Tickets.  

    That’s right … I said Lottery Tickets !

    I also hit the ATM inside the store for $100 cash.

    After shopping I went to the “customer service” counter for Lottery tickets.  I keep the tickets in a nice plastic envelope.  I purchased $40 of various Lottery pay slips (no scratch offs please) … stuffed them, along with the $100 in the plastic envelope … and tossed them into my basket along with my other grocery sacks and headed to the parking lot.  

    Back at my vehicle, I unloaded my grocery bags … and, as always … returned my cart to the cart rack in the grocery store parking lot.  I got in my vehicle and drove home.  Once home … I unloaded my purchases without a clue of what I had just done.

    Last night, I was about to check Saturday and Monday tickets … when I realized … I HAD NO TICKETS !!!

    I retraced my steps … it was fairly obvious what had happened !

    I had (like some moron) left the tickets … AND … the $100 in the envelope … in the cart … in the cart rack … in the grocery store parking lot !

    —–

    Today I decided to call the grocery store … knowing NO ONE would return $40 worth of Lotto tickets AND $100 cash !  

    I WAS WRONG !!!

    —–

    There ARE honest people in this world !!!

    Sometimes we forget that !!!

    GPRO is sitting on support, however I expect support to break in the morning and it trades to $75, i.e., the offering price. It might even just gap down to that price. However, it will quickly trap bears down there and resume it’s greatness. When it goes red to green tomorrow you’ll almost be able to hear a big fat “oh shit, I’m on the wrong side of this” from the bear shitters. Don’t panic when it trades to $75…this is normal and expected, IMO.
