I closed at the absolute highs for the session +113bps, gained more than 4% for the week — +nearly 46% for 2023. Instead of doing this with other people’s money that could pour upon my person extravagant riches, I do it for an audience of plebs who get confused quickly and blow themselves up inside a few weeks of trading.
Back in 2017 I was very upset, very angry — and felt with all of my feeeeeeeeelings that I no longer wanted to manage money professionally. I was so upset! My moron friends went on to enjoy the greatest bull market ever known, bask in the sun of unlimited money hacks — all the while I sought emotional comfort via blogging and chatting about my trades, anonymously, for an audience of rank amateurs.
This is my legacy and I am sticking with it!
For all of my black readers out there — Happy Juneteenth. I have no fucking idea what the holiday is and won’t bother to learn about it. I am pretty sure most of you don’t really know too much about it either. Nevertheless, enjoy the holiday and be sure to nibble on some corned cobbs.
To my white readers, Happy Father’s Day. Hopefully your terrible wives will get you a card and maybe offer you a new wrench for your fucking tool box. I wanted to head over to symphony and enjoy the music of the Gods but was met with a rebuff — since it’s all “rather boring” and one might “fall asleep” listening to such mundane music.
Alas — we’re all trying to achieve a semblance of equanimity just prior to dropping dead. I do hope before I collapse and drop dead, I could amass a great fortune and then play games with said fortune in the after-life. We all have our idiosyncrasies — and all are fine providing they do not hurt or annoy anyone else.
DO NO HARM!
For the weekend, since it is Father’s Day, I might smoke a cigar or perhaps an Estate Pipe. I bought some new tobacco and it burns rather fine. As for cocked tails, Mrs Fly bought me a book of recipes as an early gift; but I already know how to make just about anything — having gone though the phase of being a MASTER MIXOLOGIST. I’ve found, after tasting all of the different flavors, just about nothing beats a nice clean martini.
Cheers.

About venmo-ing your fortune to enjoy in the after-life. I read this somewhere —
“Also be respectful to the poor and needy, and give them alms and good things in right measure according to your wealth and possessions, and when doing so consider that you will not be able to take one thing to the realm of the invisible (other world/death-life) from all that which you have gathered together in terms of goods and chattels and possessions and wealth, because there are no pockets in which you could take anything with you.”
I could only hope to bring with knowledge and memories, more that a quick dream worth. Hope everybody has a great fathers day weekend!
Ecclesiastes 2:17 So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun was grievous to me. All of it is meaningless, a chasing after the wind. 18 I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun, because I must leave them to the one who comes after me. 19 And who knows whether that person will be wise or foolish? Yet they will have control over all the fruit of my toil into which I have poured my effort and skill under the sun. This too is meaningless. 20 So my heart began to despair over all my toilsome labor under the sun. 21 For a person may labor with wisdom, knowledge and skill, and then they must leave all they own to another who has not toiled for it. This too is meaningless and a great misfortune. 22 What do people get for all the toil and anxious striving with which they labor under the sun? 23 All their days their work is grief and pain; even at night their minds do not rest. This too is meaningless.
24 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, 25 for without him, who can eat or find enjoyment? 26 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.
That Jesus has a lot of wisdom. He was a Jew and Jews are smart. Would Jesus short the QQQ because it is overbought and rallying into resistance?
It’s not Jesus, Dick.
