The forlorn supplication of an otherwise group of despisable people has reached the lurid stages of entertainment. This coming from a person, such as myself, whose entire life was dedicated towards the annihilation of such a cadre of individuals has made the recent ebullience in markets all the more ravenous to me. Not only on the sideline, but also short and long bonds, my ‘sitting out’, as some might call it, is a riotous act of supreme comedy.
Whenever downcast about your mode of living, always remember the long days of 2016 when “The Fly” had been cracked asunder under a Kafkaesque bureaucratic style of miserabilism — one only matched by Hillbots storming the streets, burning them down, because a pussy grabbing orange clown had stolen the election.
Many of the frog faces here, traversing the comments section of iBankCoin, are my sworn enemies. But, and as vaudeville as this might seem, sacrifices must be made in order to right the ship of SS Titanic Fly. Even though the prisons of iBC are replete and over-brimming with criminals of a deranged type, the sordid type of person that you’d want to hit upon seeing, I have no choice but to free everyone from their chains and to permit the zoo animals to run freely about the site again.
Christmas has come early this year.
For whatever reason, iBC is an obstreperous place of recalcitrant assholes. Often times I feel like I’ve slept in a barn all night, discussing politics and the markets with drunken and retarded sheep and horses.
There is an ineradicable hostility in the country that I intend to harness and propel my person to new heights with. In the meantime, all prisoners inside of iBC’s facilities, dubbed Black-Fag-Box (no racism), will be released shortly.
God speed.

A gentlemanly peace offering, indeed. I hope a well rounded community rises from these ashes. You were doing great, until July, where upon you made all the right calls, but took the wrong side of every trade.
It was “The Fly” who once taught us not to bet against America. That bearshitters were the most vile breed – to be spat upon if acknowledged at all.
You once asked what the difference between us was? It’s simple. You’ve been cucking for your degrading vision of politics… and all the while I’ve been buying the dips.
There’s nothing in the world you could teach me, in one thousand lifetimes. Therefore, and I beg the question, why are you talking to me?
I know everyone either agrees w you or they are a shill.
Your mind has become pea-sized…As was the entire universe at the dawn of Creation
Not a bad retort, but still grammatically incorrect — which is ironic. Isn’t it?
We already have a line forming for the new “Ban List” perfect
Crazy talk..No more brandy.
Told ya. You and traditional-paradigm commentators achilles heal, the intentional bubbling from a shadow govt type entity. You still don’t smell a rat? The paradigm that money managers, hedgies, traders, institutions are determining the movement of this market? Some of us history will be proving right

The market collapses when there is no fear of downside. Now that you have given up on your losing trades, it is time to buy them.
According to marketwatch, any independent thought is invalid:

Sound bigbrotherish?
(oh, and like the Brexit Rally, and Italian Fart rally? I guess, we’re supposed to believe, the biggest hated outcome the establishment didn’t want to see, now somehow has a loving embrace…)
Who gave up?
Haven’t you said that you are closing them?
For tax losses. I never said I’d switch bias.

Thank, I got a good laugh from that one.
Conspiracy theories and gibberish, what a favor you’ve done for the previously banished. Next you’ll tell us there is a VIP section at Arby’s we’re free to join.
Please direct me to your widely read website, so that I can show others how a true pro, like yourself, does it.
The comments section is about to be made great again. Now I just need a way to be notified of new comments….a subscribe button perhaps to help encourage engagement.
Maybe that’s what’s changed. Using “widely read” as the measure of quality.
One man’s refuse is another man’s treasure. You’d be wise not to start believing that your standards are what I should model mines after.
Unless of course you’ve been marshaled with the responsibility of running a first tier finance site of the very first magnitude. Having done this for a long time, I know what your problem is, even if you don’t.
If you were to be honest with yourself, you’re either butthurt over your bitch losing the election and holding a grudge against me, or you’re just the jealous type, always craven and angry because you’re upset over how your life ended up.
This isn’t the psych ward, so don’t expect another free analysis from me.
I see your email. You’re a fucking leaf. That’s the problem here.
Nah, I just miss my favorite finance site. Good luck with the new direction.
Liar.
I don’t always agree with everything you say- but I do feel I learn something when I read your work, and I do know it is WORK, so I both appreciate it and am thankful for it. No homo.
Thank you. See, that’s how a gentleman behaves, not in the ribald way most of you approach me — with infantile insults and a pining for the swashbuckling days of when I traded and that was it. Let me remind you, some things are more important that the next trade.
Like the trade after the next trade.
you have a vacuous soul.

You want the redpill on the site? Here it is.
The previous guru based model was complete shit and made me sick. While it’s true, I’ve always been a gifted trader and always knew how to make money in market, it literally made me sick. I quit my job because I hated doing it. Most people would never walk away from a high paying job, but that’s exactly what I did.
Before last year, the site was boring, topical, niche, small, and all about me. I wasn’t a fan and grew weary of telling a bunch of fucking ingrates what I was doing every day.
I’ve always had a penchant for writing, so I decided to expand my content to cover all aspects of financial news. When the elections hit, I viewed it as a once in a life time opportunity and my content extended to that. Truth be told, it’s my site and I can start talking about stuffed animals if I wanted it. While some of you may miss the old Fly who only talked about stocks, I view that period of my life to be petty, selfish and infantile.
I realize the content of the site doesn’t cater to the old readers, at least not all. But the site is growing daily and new readers are streaming in to hear what I have to say. No one is forcing you to read me and my content is a work in progress, as I try to perfect my voice to fit this new genre. But, I must say, judging many of you whom I’ve seen in the comments section since 2008, I am sort of let down by your tone and acrimonious attitude, also surprised by how insanely liberal many of you leaf’s are.
That being said, out with the old and in with the new.
Loved the ‘Ol Fly’, and love current one, and probably the new one too. Keeping writing and I’ll keep reading, and sometimes clicking.
A rare glimpse into the internal workings of the fly. Thanks for opening up. I for one love the direction of the site, and my readership has grown more consistent. You have a truly unique voice, and a very logical, educated, and well thought out view on the world and finance, that is a pleasure to read daily. Keep up the great work and great content.
Fuck these ungrateful microbes that hover around the site with nothing but criticism.
Thanks. I think most of the people giving me shit are democrats. Funny thing is, I am not a republican and I voted for Obama. Liberalism isn’t a bad thing. What I am trying to show people is this new democrat party isn’t liberal, it’s authoritarian. The GOP isn’t much better.
Fly, I love seeing you grow. You remind me of this quote from Bill Parcells:
“I only want my team to play to its potential, as I perceive it to be. I really don’t have any regard for anyone else’s perception.”
Keep it going, keep growing. Play to your potential, win with your performance.
I am trying. I get a lot of push back on the news model. But I have never been happier at a job than the past year. I love doing this.

Idiots forget that the Real Fly has other sources of income greatness other than just stocked picks and bond picks like the rest of us pikers. #justsayin

Believe it or not, the site does quite well too. But it can be a lot better. I want to try to grow much bigger and faster. Finance has been DEAD in terms of traffic the past year. If you don’t believe me, go look at Alexa.com and punch in some of your fav sites. Politics has definitely filled the void, albeit pissing off 50% of my old reader base.
I am one that enjoy the political AND market commentary. Swallowing the red or blue pill or both is crucial in making money. You can’t separate them in the real world. Otherwise you fall into some kind of psychological trap.
Let loose the dogs of…shill
I painstakingly reset my long forgotten password so that I could say I too have become a more frequent and interested visitor. Please carry on.
I love all the content and would it would be great to add technology to the mix as well, sort of like that piece of shit businesinsider, but better
The only thing I can imagine more depressing than being a finance blogger is being a political blogger.
God speed in 2017.
Ah…the smell of fresh air after an extended period of banishment is intoxicating.
