Outspoken Critic of Trump, Prince Aziz, Gunned Down in Purge

The youngest son of Kind Fahd, Prince Aziz, is now dead, after getting into a firefight with the Saudi Royal police.

This is now the second day Prince in two days, the first dying in a mysterious helicopter accident.

Sweet dreams, young Prince.

Last we heard of Prince Aziz, he was talking shit on Twitter.

The son of the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia has criticised Abu Dhabi’s Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Zayed, describing him as “villainous” and “cowardly”. Abdul Aziz Bin Fahd made his comments on Twitter.

Angered by a picture designed by an Emirati citizen which included photographs of Saudi King Salman and the Abu Dhabi Crown Prince, Bin Fahd described the latter as a “deceiver”.

“Don’t put your photo next to Salman’s,” he wrote on Twitter. Bin Zayed has a “satanic black face,” he added.

Prince Abdul Aziz accused the Abu Dhabi official of following US President Donald Trump and of misleading and deceiving Muslims.

This was Bin Fahd’s second major Twitter outburst in the past few days. Earlier in the week, he called upon Muslims to “go and fight for Al-Aqsa” Mosque in occupied Jerusalem.

Prince Aziz had plans — now look where that got him.

Here are some of the properties the late Prince owned in the US.

The swamp drainage continues, Saudi style.

Echoes of 2000: $AVGO Unsolicited Bid for $QCOM is Largest Tech Deal Ever

The AOL-Timewarner deal was not considered a ‘tech deal’ because Time Warner was a media company. But it was the largest deal of all time — a $165 billion cyclone of fucking disaster.

Here were are again, markets at all time highs, faggots in wheeled chairs loafing about all day on Twitter, and AVGO is bidding for QCOM, to the tune of $103 billion.

Broadcom has been working on its proposal for months — a bold bid to become a dominant supplier of communications chips to the wireless industry — and is believed to have approached Qualcomm privately about its offer, but was quickly rebuffed, sources told CNBC. The company had originally considered an attempt to buy Qualcomm prior to that company’s deal to buy NXP more than one year ago, but upon getting no traction at that time, retreated.

QCOM officials told them to fuck off.

Qualcomm, however, is expected to strongly resist Broadcom’s proposal. People close to the company expect it to indicate the offer price is far below what it would expect in a takeover. In addition, Qualcomm is expected to raise concerns that any combination with Broadcom would raise significant antitrust concerns.

A top of more fun?

Trump Says the Stock Market is Up Because of Him

How does one reconcile statements such as this?

“The reason our stock market is so successful is because of me,” the president said. “I’ve always been great with money, I’ve always been great with jobs, that’s what I do. And I’ve done it well, I’ve done it really well, much better than people understand and they understand I’ve done well.”

Our President talks so much shit, it would surprise me if this whole house of cards didn’t come crashing down — just for the jinx of it all. As a former athlete and someone who is somewhat superstitious, this sort of shit-talking should be illegal.

LOTS OF MONEY TO BE MADE IN THESE HERE FIELDS SON

I’m making mounds of money today. Even though I’m palling around with plumbers and shit today, I have stocks screaming higher which makes me feel as if I invented the light bulb.

On Friday, while the rest of you faggots were drinking yourselves into a coma, I bought ESEA. It’s a piece of shit shipper, with hardly any market cap, and now it’s exploding with vigor.

On top of that, my Moviepass play, HMNY has erupted. Plenty of joy coming out of that one, believe me.

My other discretionary holdings include UCTT, FIZZ and UVXY. Funny thing about UVXY and I wanted to write a full review on the stock to warn future buyers of it. The best way to describe the ETF is to compare it to a fucking knifed Jack in the Box. No one ever quite gets it and when it explodes higher, it’s always a surprise, like “uh huh, you went up.” Upon purchasing it after it pops, it always disappoints, just like winding the Jack in the Box after it pops. You can wind it for a little and then the music gets retarded and the knifed Jack slumps over and sort of wilts away. That’s UVXY.

As for ESEA. Sky is the limit, quite literally. Shipping stocks have supreme hard-ons and are pressing to the upside, with vigor.

Morning Poppers (MUH 2nd Amendment Edition)

What a wonderful morning fellow Americans! I’ve awoken from my 2 1/2 hour slumber to a nice streaming flow of water emanating down from my kitchen ceiling. This is an annual occurrence at House Fly, thanks to faulty copper piping. Today, I’ve just about had enough of this leaking business and will order the plumbers to rip the entire fucking ceiling apart and replace all of the copper. I know, I can hear you plumberfags now say “replace it with PEX”, but no and go fuck yourselves. I will replace it with a better quality copper, knowing that I’m not consuming water of a dangerous varietal. Several years back, replaced one of my ventilation systems, which was no more than 3 years old, with sheet metal. The previous owners were piping in air through plastic tubes. “The Fly” cringed at the site of it and had those HVAC fuckers rip it all out and start anew.

Speaking of which, sometimes I wonder if we should start anew in America — get rid of all the legacy mouth breathers which has led to the place we are today — active fucking shooters on a continuous basis. I will not pretend to know the first thing about these people who feel they must kill a bunch of people in order to fill whatever void they have — but enough is enough.

Nasdaq futures are down 5 and stocks are poised to edge higher, in spite of all the wretched news.

NVDA is edging down this morning because AMD teamed up with INTC for some bullshit. The only other piece of interested news is KORS disappointing guidance. Fuck that stock. Their bags and clothes are for clowns.

Son of Former Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia Killed in Mysterious Helicopter Accident

Dow futures are down 50, Nasdaq -20. Over in Asia, the Hang Seng is -300 and the KOSPI is off by 0.8% — after the Saudi government went fucking apeshit by arresting and accidenting 8 high ranking officials, including a the son of the former crown prince of Saudi Arabia — Prince Mansour bin Muqrin.


Helicopter’d

Here’s the quick rundown.

Prince Alwaleed’s grandfather, Riad Al Solh, was the first Prime Minister of Lebanon. The good Prince was arrested yesterday on charges of corruption. Moreover, the Prime Minister of Lebanon resigned in a shock move, claiming he felt his life was at risk.

Lebanese Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri announced his resignation on Saturday, stressing that “Iran’s hands in the region will be cut off,” emphasizing the fact that “wherever Iran is involved, there is nothing but devastation and chaos.”

“Iran has a strong desire to destroy the Arab world,” he said in his televised resignation speech.

Hariri warned that “the evil that Iran sends to the region will eventually backfire on Tehran.”

Hariri said: “Iran controls the region and the decision-making in both Syria and Iraq.”

In his statement, Hariri said Iran was “losing in its interference in the affairs of the Arab world”, adding that Lebanon would “rise as it had done in the past” and “cut off the hands that wickedly extend into it”.

Hariri stressed his rejection of the use of Hezbollah’s weapons against the Lebanese and Syrians, pointing out that “the intervention of Hezbollah caused us problems with our Arab neighborhood.”

Hariri said that he is aware that there are assassination plots against his life saying: “I sensed that there are people who secretly want me dead.”

In his speech, he said the atmosphere in the country is similar to the one that existed before his father, the late prime minister Rafik Hariri, was assassinated in 2005.

“We are living in a climate similar to the atmosphere that prevailed before the assassination of (his father the late prime minister) martyr Rafik al-Hariri. I have sensed what is being plotted covertly to target my life,” he said.

He continued: “We will not allow Lebanon to become a trigger for the security of the region,” explaining that “frustration and fragmentation in Lebanon is unacceptable.”

On Friday, Saudi Arabia intercepted missiles from Yemen, then 11 Saudi Princes were arrested, and now a helicopter filled with 8 high level officials, including a Prince, was killed in an ‘accidental’ chopper incident.

So what has changed recently that could be the cause of all this fuckery?

ISIS has been defeated in Syria, a group which was likely funded and supported by these Saudi Princes. The Saudi Aramco IPO, which Trump shitposted on twitter the other day. Or perhaps this is a legitimate purge of corruption in the House of Saud by the new King?

One thing is for certain, the son of the current King and the next King of Saudi Arabia, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, is behind the whole gambit.

Mohammed bin Salman

The latter is likely the least likely to be true.

SAUDI ARABIA DRAINS THE SWAMP: GOOD NIGHT SWEET PRINCE

Prince Alwaleed owns the Four Seasons Hotel, a shit load of Twitter and of course Citi and now he owns a prison cell (at the Ritz). The future King of the House of Saud, Prince Mohammed bin Salman, chaired the purge that has led to the arrest of many high profile, powerful, sheiks in Saudi Arabia, including Bin Laden’s brother.

What’s interesting about the timing of all this is it comes at a time when people are discussing the Saudi Aramco IPO. Bear in mind, the whole diversification plan is Bin Salman’s idea. Additionally, the Las Vegas shooting occurred in Prince Alwaleed’s hotel.

From a shit positing point of view, I find it incredibly humorous that Alwaleed made an enemy out of Trump and now he’s in gaol on corruption charges. At least the swamp is getting drained — too bad it isn’t our swamp.

“The homeland will not exist unless corruption is uprooted and the corrupt are held accountable,” the royal decree said.

Indeed. Maybe, if we’re lucky, we too can get to drain our swamp and arrest dozens of corrupt officials.

Good night, sweet Prince. We had fun times.

Exodus Special: $FIZZ is Oversold and Destined to Shoot Higher

I want you to log into your little brokerage accounts come Monday and borrow some stock in FIZZ, betting against me in this gambit, working towards the destruction of FIZZ.

None of you truly believe that trendy flavored seltzer water canned in chic containers could possibly appeal to present day America, the emasculated edition, right?

I, on the other hand, will be on the other end of that trade, feverishly trying to bankrupt you by buying more FIZZ.

What the heck is my problem, anyhow?

Not a thing, gents. I simply enjoy a good match and grew up playing hard sports, crashing into others without a helmet.

My investment software Exodus has produced a ***RARE FLAG*** for FIZZ, oversold on its principle algorithm. The last time we saw this was October 21st, 2016, nearly 1 year from today.

What happened since then? Have a gander.

See all the way on the left hand side, the ass-end of that chart? That’s where you went short betting against Exodus, which resulted in a crippling loss.

Here were are, yet again, touting flawless stats over a 10 day holding period.

Do it. Bet against me.

TRUMPTARDS GET IN HERE AND EXPLAIN THIS

Saudi Arabia intends to spin off its state owned oil conglomerate, Saudi Aramco, next year and it will be the largest IPO, and quite possibly the biggest company by market cap in the world — expected to come in at $1 trillion.

Leading the assault is JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, and HSBC, naturally.

And our President tweets this, like a dog.

So why does Saudi Arabia want to float 5% of their ‘crown jewel’?

BECAUSE THEY WANT TO GET THE HELL OUT OF CRUDE OIL.

The listing of Aramco, expected to be the world’s biggest IPO and raise tens of billions of dollars, is a centerpiece of the government’s ambitious plan – known as Vision 2030 – to diversify the economy beyond oil.

“We have two main factors to decide the percentage to be listed … First the demand, whether there will be demand or not. Second, what do we have in terms of investments in the pipeline inside Saudi or outside,” Prince Mohammed said, referring to opportunities to invest proceeds of the IPO.

In other words, the House of Saud needs bag holders to buy their stock so they could spend the money elsewhere, likely because they know the gig is up and the future for fossil fuels has never looked so grim.

Oil Had a Nice Run — But It’s Going to End Soon

Independent oil and gas stocks rose by 5.3% over the past week, 10x the return of the SPY. While that’s all well and good; and we certainly do appreciate the gravitas emanating out of Houston; all of that is going to end — and in fairly short order.

The Exodus oscillator is screaming sell, so you ought to do it.

Have a great weekend and enjoy the revolution.
