Gentlemen, A Discussion About Oil

Last night another OPEC official stated they could not and would not reduce production, in order to maintain market share. Clearly, these people, with over a trillion in cash reserves, mean business. Furthermore, he stated they’d be glad to discuss coordinated production cuts with non-OPEC members. In other words, they are going to bankrupt the Bakken Shale, no matter the cost.

This morning, T. Boone Pickens said oil would trade back to $90 within 12-18 months. Do not laugh at this man, for he’s accomplished more than most of us combined. There is something happening in the space now, something that is far and beyond what lies in your juvenile charts. Steer clear of the sector and avoid it altogether. There comes a point in a man’s life when he evolves and no longer commits mistakes of his former youth. I believe last year was a turning point in my career, one that blazoned a new path for Le Fly, one that elevated my investment acumen to levels you could only dream of attaining.

Remember, it’s important to respect your adversaries, just before killing them.

While it’s true, I am beating the S&P 500 this year like a wet dog in China, by 15%. It’s also true that I have ground to make up for last year’s chicanery. But listen to me now, ever so quietly: my methods have changed and so will my performance.

Early this morning, bloody murder is taking place in the crude pits. I like anti-crude plays and will update you on a need-to-know basis.

    True, there are easier trades.

    Like a wise sheik once said, “It’s less painful for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for said needle to go through the eye of the camel”

    Great time to be in the business of having a natural short position in oil. Of course our hedges are a bit out to lunch now, but that’s what they are for ultimately.

    I’m surprised T. Boone Pickens was allowed back on the teevee after CBNC tried to contradict him over rig counts and he told those clowns they have no place telling him about oil or any other business. The man is a fucking legend.

    I have sold out of my SPY calls as of this morning’s dip. I bought them last Friday. I am committed to locking in reasonable gains and avoiding dastardly losses. I wanted to sell at 213, but instead will buy puts there instead.

    No opinion on oil other than the heavy volume liquidation doesn’t seem to have happened yet.
