Prepare For Merger Tuesday, Yet Again

Strip everything out and you have a clam, just a clam. This clam lowers the cost of borrowing to absurd levels and just sort of sits there, like only a clam would do. The market goes haywire, inflation riots set shit ablaze overseas, and the clam just sits there. Oil presses against $100 per barrel, cotton through the roof, sugar, corn and all metals through the roof, yet the clam just sits there. If you think about it, “The Clam” is God (CIG), setting things in motion, then plays absentee landlord, whilst atomic bombs detonate over small cities.

The Fed is behind the curve. Naturally, interest rates should not be so low; but here we are minting money for the benefit of the banks. Spreads have widened out and stock market capital gains are making people rich again. Dare I say, this is a perfect time to be a banker.

Speaking of which, it’s none of your fucking concern how much money Wall Street fat cats make. Do not compare these egregious and beautiful profit centers to the salaries of idiot NYC teachers or retarded firemen, across the nation. I will have you know, the people who are collecting their giant sized bonuses deserve it, for they made their company lots and lots of money. Quit pandering to the communist malcontents in the media and grow a pair of balls, would you?

Thanks.

Into merger Monday, I am not selling a damn thing.

Top picks: BORN, KNDI, TEX, PH, SFLY

Coasting

At this point, “The Fly’s” days are spent coasting, enjoying delicacies such as lobster, shrimp and 2 1/2 thick rib eyes, heavily salted, lightly peppered. Nothing scares me, thanks to free money and a lot of courage. While looking at today’s sell off, I piss on down 30 points. Should we go down another 70, I will spit on it.

See folks, when living in “the land of plenty,” things, for lack of a better word, are easy. I am buttressed by a government, or a global government rather, who is ardently opposed to loss. Please take note of today’s dollar decline and behave yourselves when dining at Michelin rated restaurants.

“The Fly” has the incense burning to the point where his neighbors believe there is a 5 alarm fire taking place. And of course, the white robe and sandals are in effect and slaps of hot pizza are being distributed evenly amongst all employees. I mock those who sell short, or bet against me, because there is nothing you can do. See how I am writing this blog in a way that vexes you? Yes, I do this on purpose because the dogs never bark and the milk is always delivered on time. There will be no set-backs, at least from my vantage point, as I am always 10 steps ahead of the unwashed (you).

I am making so much money, my face is numb. I can’t even see my monitors, due the over-abundance of champagne bottles blockading my line of sight.

Finally, I sold out of RBCN because there was too much noise, after the LEDS debacle. After all, why fight with fists when you can simply shoot someone in the face?

My Fishing Pole is Longer Than Yours

Can you feel the tension in the air?  There is a heightened consciousness with regards to this tape, a classic battle between the bulls and the stubborn bears. Today’s economic non-event (weekly jobless claims) has emboldened the bearshitter, dressed in green velcro pants, to sell short this market, even though it may go up by another 25% based upon 2012 EPS estimates.

It seems the slightest declines flushes out retail investors. Gone are the days of the 15% stop loss. I am seeing people stop out of good stocks, with strong trends, after just -2-3%. Frankly, that’s fucking ridiculous. Naturally, we all have our own style and some of you even day trade for a living, something that I find to be distinctly reprehensible. Nonetheless, I implore  you to take a greater interest in learning about the stocks/sectors you are buying. This way, when a 4 letter stock drops by 3%, you will know why you should buy more, or dump it.

Aside from that, it’s important for you to know, and acknowledge, my #2 position (TEX) going apeshit to the upside. As a matter of fact, 6 of my top 7 positions are green today. I do not alert you of this winship for your accolades or some sort of weak kneed compliment. I tell you this because I intend to demonstrate, through even greater transparency, that “The Fly” is the absolute best manager of other people’s money, in the world.

In a word: MYFISHINGPOLEISLONGERTHANYOURS.

NOTE: I sold out of CRIC and added to MOTR

Asshat of the Week Award: Mr. Trung Tri Doan

Mr. Trung “dung” Tri Doan aka “the world’s ugliest CEO” is an abomination to the stock exchange. This grotesque man, through greed and gluttony, brought his disgusting company public, LEDS, back in December of 2010. On their very first earnings report, they miss by a fucking giant football field, highlighting how fraudulent they are, with regards to hoodwinking their lead underwriters, BAC, BCS and JEF. Let me repeat: there is no fucking way the perverts over at LEDS didn’t see some sort of weakness, prior to disclosures filed for IPO.
ASSHAT!

On earnings call, LEDS mgmt says the see a sustainable gross margin range of 44-46%… Mgmt noted that they are experiencing pricing pressure that they did not see a month ago. They said this is primarily due to a customer moving to a competitor, due solely to better pricing. This quarter, the company will remain focused on new high performance products, and improving pricing power. They expect to produce an additional 10 mln chips per month from the Taiwan facility, doubling capacity… During Q&A, when asked about which competitor the customer went to, mgmt says there is only one competitor producing high performance LEDS like they do. Says the loss of the customer was in Taiwan… LEDS is -34% in the pre-mkt, currently trading -33% at 19.18.

Mr. Trung “dung” Tri Doan (yes, that really is his fucking name) isn’t ready to be a CEO for a publicly traded company. He should stay in the fucking lab, building idiots lamps, instead of fucking people over through gross negligence. I am sure that beast of man is grinning right now, as his shareholders lose their faces in pre-market trading.
As a result of this enormous earnings fraud, other LED related names are getting hit (AIXG, CREE, VECO), including my RBCN. However, do not misconstrue the health of the industry, based upon the deviant mishaps of a Mr. Trung Tri Doan. The LED market is still in its nascent stage, as the idiots from China require street lamps and things of that nature. In other words, I’m handing out Asshat of the Week awards again, and Mr. Dung is getting the first of 2011.

Pressing the Hot Blade into Your Neck

Early in the day, for my personal account, I sold out of SOHU and UTA, due to strange trading behavior. I didn’t like the way they were trading. As a matter of fact, I do not like how any of the chicoms are trading. With the proceeds, I bought boat loads of RBCN and IMAX, at $22.80 ish and $27.70ish respectively. Let me tell you right now, I will not relent on these two until my blade is stuck firmly into your jugular, twisting away at your arteries.
If you are short these names, your head will soon be mounted inside of my fucking garage (’cause it’s not good enough for my office).

For managed accounts, I sold out of PWRD (chinese fuckery) and loaded up on TEX. Milk the farmer. Destroy the peasant!

The dollar got crushed today, alongside treasuries and munis. Risk is back on, in a big way. The European debt crisis will be neutralized and stocks will trade up, in my humble opinion of course.

Most of my positions charged higher today, allowing me to gain about 0.5%. Year to date, I’m up about 2%, while my personal psychopath account is down about 5%. There are two sides to the 240% leveraged blade, trust in that.  Nonetheless, I will make all of it back, very quickly, and much, much more. Watch me do it.
