If you’ve been following me since January, you should be up more than 20% year to date. With my small book of business, I am plus 24% and counting, levered long at 110%. At times, I’ve been 150% long–cannibal in a locker filled with weak bankers style. Do you know why?
Answer: because I can.
Since I’ve been blogging on the internets, I’ve never been levered this long. Back in 2008, I was 200% short, many, many times. My confidence was not caused by chemical imbalances or because I am a “perma-bull.” Quite the contrary, as I prefer everything to burn down. I am perma-banking-coin. Let’s leave it at that.
I went long and stayed long because I was supported by central banks and history. I know my stock market history; therefore, I am never doomed to repeat failures, aside from the occasional December blow up.
POMO.
With today’s gains, the SPY is up 2.7% for the month, stretching its winning streak to 5 consecutive months. This has been the easiest market in the world if you obeyed two things.
1. The overarching trend.
2. Stayed within the parameters of popular stocks.
Often times people try to outsmart the market by buying outlier stocks, in stupid jackass fashion.
Listen to me very closely, the market is a great whore who intends to suckle you. Do not take her to the movies and attempt to woo her with flowers and gifts of chocolate and persimmons. She will do it for free.
Why try to plant onions in the cold dirt, when there are sweet potatoes on the table to eat?
Ask yourselves that question when you see to your sins and redress your immorality.
The grande finale is upon us. We are on a fixed course higher until April and I intend to milk this cow for every last drop, then kill it for its meat!
