You Just Bore Witness to the Largest Short Squeeze of All Time

None of it made sense, which is why it happened so viciously. The global economy stopped dead in its tracks, due to a deadly contagion, and stocks rallied because of it. Barely anyone can tell you with a straight face things are going back to the way they used to be — but it doesn’t seem to matter — at least not yet.

Word of advice, look for distribution days. The good olde boys club won again and will now reopen the economy and take refuge at their summer homes, while the plebs seek adventure on cruise ships and “amusement parks”, public pools, get sick and drop dead. A second wave is already happening in areas of the country filled with flu-bros and hydroxyFAGS, including my state of NC.

While I do believe we will trade higher on Tuesday, I also believe, rather fervently, we will RETEST THE LOWS and much much more. Time has been short and the violence of the counter-intuitive nature of the rally will dissipate. In its place, by fall, will be apathy — global depression, and indifference. Once the violence ends, so will the rally.

    And in other news, millions of Robinhooders flee cryptos after realizing the government can shut down the internet as easily as shutting down the local beach.

    70% of participants in BofA fund manager survey believe this is a bear market rally. Isn’t the crowd usually wrong?

      Correct. The crowd, almost by definition, has to be wrong. So is it a renewed bull? ..or is it something worse than the bear that the crowd believes it to be?

      – Will a system where we print and foreigners provide us things of value continue a while longer, or will there soon be an adjustment?
      – Will the thieves who run both parties and who just transferred additional $trillions to their own pockets provide enough candy to the eaters to keep them in line?
      – Will pushing rates ever lower continue to force money into stocks even as companies’ performance suffers?

      Also, there are several happy talk areas that may yet be rolled out and which may keep the rally going awhile: e.g., the Chicom flu has forced us to accelerate the virtualization of our economy …it has shown that we can automate more jobs more quickly …our response has shown how work-from home will make us more efficient. And maybe there’ll be a burst of optimism that $1200 could become a monthly Yang-ish stipend so that the third or so of American adults that the new system has no use for, could continue to buy stuff from good ole American businesses.

    Markets follow the basic logic but with latency, only plebs are impatient. Who has the courage to ride the grizzly, make up your minds?
    Happy birthday Doc.

    Professor Fly is bang on,
    2nd wave is already here
    Rich will hide away,
    Plebs, Poor and the rest will be subject to the contagion,
    And the health care system will remain overloaded, over stressed and under funded,
    China in lockdown again all ready,
    everywhere the numbers are going up, I just read about a hairstylist who had Covid and potentially infected/ exposed 91 clients last week
    Canada’s numbers up too,
    Truth of it is,…… many more will die,
    and markets will eventually be forced to accept the inevitable truth, we are fucked,…

        Hope is something affordable at 10-15x CAPE ratio probably around the Q3 / Q4 massive losses / asset writedowns that are coming. Not 27x CAPE when the worst news that’s hit the airwaves is a 30% reduction in profits and talentless Morgan Stanley equity researchers feel comfortable enough declaring a generational bottom just 30 days into a 30% stock market meltdown without any visible shame or caution.
