Morning Poppers (I’m Going Back to Sleep Edition)

I caught some sort of wild variant of the flu yesterday and I’ve been medicating myself ever since. With mega doses of vitamin C, some decongestants, and fever suppressants, I feel as if life simply isn’t worth continuing under these present conditions. Nevertheless, I march on into the complacent market, filled with rainbows and sunsets.

I am going back to sleep, immediately following this post and can make no commitments as to when I will be returning.

I see Jimmy Kimmel is trending on Twitter, which confirms my suspicion that I had been wasting away discussing politics and the cavemen who cavort in it.

Early going, futs are flat, but gold is higher by 0.6%.

WTI is the big show-stopper, with gains of 1.2%.

Hurricane Maria made a direct hit on Puerto Rico, with winds of 155mph.

And here’s some other nonsense from my Twitter stream.

Ok, off I go. Don’t even think about waking me up. I’ll likely wake up every 30 mins anyway, induced by nightmare’s of me losing all of my money in FIZZ.

    I’d tell you to have a big steak and egg breakfast, but you won’t listen anyway.

      Great advice! Is it starve a cold and feed a fever or is it feed a cold and starve a fever?

    You have figured out the flu shot doesn’t work.

    It’s a megadose of vitamin A you need. But you have to take it when the first signs appear, otherwise it’s too late. 2x recommended daily dose for first 2 days.

    if you need two buckets, then you have the two-bucket disease, aka Norovirus. Yes I had it and yes it is questionable about whether life is worth living at the moment. But you get over it. Hardly any cruise ship degenerate has jumped off the super-sizeme boat to get over it. Good luck and have fun. And keep your throne handy and unencumbered. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPaCG98_8Lk

    It’s common knowledge that vegans (AKA, the nearly gay) are far more susceptible to disease and infections of all types.
    One may perchance experience a lifetime of lower cholesterol and such but in the end you die anyway.
    So take the advice of Solomon my good man,

    ” A person can do nothing better than to eat and drink and find satisfaction in their own toil. This too, I see, is from the hand of God, for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment? To the person who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

    Just sayin…

    Fly, wakey-wakey.

    APPL is testing key support at 155, almost certainly to fail based on the chart (unless the FED creates a positive surprise). Once that happens, it’s looking to fall another 10% to 140, then perfect the H&S it’s forming. From there, down goes Frasier, down goes Qs, down goes everything.
