Already Cashed Up — Readying to Get Back In

Yesterday on a whim I sold out of everything that was down — netting me a 40% cash position. Today the market drifted sloppily lower — without panic of any signs of discord. There was an easy calmness to this drop — a perceivable nothingness to the burger and I did nothing at all, other than watch the contractors working inside my house muck things up and trip over themselves trying to maneuver neatly.

With my cash, I’ll try to reallocate back into the market tomorrow. I can’t complain, really, as nothing of important traded too much lower and all of the signs of a continued rally are still present.

I’m exhausted, had a long day — fuck off.

        I’ve been restricted from using Twitter for 12 hours because I tweeted to someone “please do the world a favor and drop dead”

    The market acts like it’s waiting for something.
    Brexit? Old news.
    Fed minutes? Nah.
    Earnings/warnings/guidance? Hey. Could be it.
    That will take a bit to develop. Until then there is a gap to be filled. I’m not short, but watching.

    I hope your contractors don’t read your blog.

        Sorry replied to the wrong post. I’ve been banned from Twitter for 12 hours because I wrote “do the world a favor and drop dead” to someone. I figured you’d appreciate this Master Fly. I think Trump’s Twitter account was on the list of people the tweet went to.

    Seems like I’m always seeing a penis at this site. God forbid my girlfriend should walk by at the moment it is on screen.

    You might remember years ago an extended discussion here about men in drag. I was amused. For the hell of it I put on one of my girlfriend’s costume wigs and took a look at myself in the bathroom mirror. I heard a creaking sound, turned around and found her peering in the door “ah ha, I KNEW IT, she cackled”. She made accusations for years, torturing me about wearing wigs. Death will be my only relief from her torment.

    So basically, be careful here.

      I post these pics on purpose. My former programmer used to cringe at them because when he’d work at Starbucks — people would judge him severely by the titles and the pics. It made him so uneasy, so of course I had to double down with dick pics on statues.

        It’s a great statue and work of art end it says a lot about you Commander Fly. You are wide open to the world and not ashamed. You don’t fall for that bullshit.

          To quote the title of a book by Jane Austen, you have great “sense and sensibilities”. Posting from my iPhone and for some reason it’s coming out all funky.

    This morning’s opening is not looking good. I’m not happy about this. However, right now I’m in for the long run only. But I would like to see the market drop big time at a perfectly opportunistic moment in 2020. Guess why?
