The Ugliest Up Day I’ve Ever Seen

It’s cool that the market is up today because I am down about a gazillion dollars. All of the hottest commodity plays are being dismembered and their body parts placed on a pike.

Oil is off by 2%, but your average oil stock is down about 7%. Very nice.

Hiding out in tech? That’s a fucking problem. Shares of PANW, YELP, TWTR–poof–gone, right down the sewer pipe.

At least the IBB is up. But GILD is down, so fuck me.

LLY is having a fine day, down 8%. Or how about VMW, down 8.5% on the Dell-EMC merger news?

This ia shaping out to be a horrid day and I could accept it if the market was down 500. But seeing it up a cool 45 makes me want to punch a hole through my fucking monitor right now.

    Metals selloff not surprising with the flagpole price action. My error: being greedy and not selling every metal on Friday. GS commodity report no help. Biotechs not moving until after the Democratic debate. My error: not waiting until Wed to buy. Tech. Not a player here. Yeah, fucking ugly day. Only working for me: EROS, PYPL, and MOH.

    I sold a little today. Had a small SPY call position that expired this week. Wanted to roll it but instead I put on my Freddy Kruger knife glove and slashed it.
