Fully Invested

My cash position is down to a measly 10%, with today’s foray into BAC. I believe this is a good bounce to trade, which is why I am balls deep long. However, I still hold my VXX position, which will erode some of my gains. On a personal level, as discussed last week, I am all in long, via fucktarded 3x ETF funds and CRS/FTK/AXL positions.

My near term target for the S&P 500 is higher than where it is trading now. I will release some of my longs, as we get into OVERBOUGHT territory. For now, I will kick-back and enjoy the ride.

Buy the Dip

Attention Asshole Dip Buyers of America,

It makes no sense to buy stocks now, which is why you must. Under the O’bama administration, all males between the ages of 11-99 must participate in the experiment called “fucked up capitalism,” through purchases of shares via a government sponsored agent, most preferably at JPM or GS. As you know, our operators are scheduled to bring GM public again, in order to further enrich the already deep pockets of our institutional client base. You, as an honest tax paying American, must tell friends and family to buy GM cars, so that our institutional client base may sell their newly minted IPO certs at a handsome profit, as dictated by none other than Emperor O’Bama, Lord of the Saviors of America, Chief Indian of the Welltodo Tribes.

Precipitously,

Anonymous

Simply Too Dramatic

The Drama Queens are out and about this morning, worrying about everything. TLT is simply through the roof, defying all of your silly notions of inflation. And, the currency situation is a small mess again, with yen and dollar strength/euro weakness. With oil down and TGT sucking dick, it is possible to see some weakness permeate today’s tape; but is it probable. What’s important for you to consider, at this very moment in time: is someone trying to steal from you?

Why, I think if you’d investigate, you might conclude: indeed they are!

We are sort of programmed to ignore anything that happens in the summer and discard it as “typical August bullshit”; are we not? But the things that are transpiring are very real, which leads me to my next point. What the fuck is gold doing at these lofty levels? And, secondly, why is the market pricing in both inflation and deflation? Talk about basket case.

Taking all of this into account, I’ve concluded one thing: the market is simply too dramatic. It’s plain ol’ vanilla gay and you really should not think about it too much, else you might die from an aneurysm rupture on your aorta. For now, put the macro stuff on the back burner and focus on price action. That’s the only thing that is real: the price something is selling for right now.

With my money, I will hold onto recent longs, as my belief system values the notion of a trade-able bounce, despite this mornings weakness—precipitated by a TLT spike. Nonetheless, I still have my insurance policy, via VXX, out there, in the event this market starts to get gay again.

In short, watch out for an upside reversal.

Gasoline on Your Face

You motherfuckers got “zero-hedged” because you’re in this game for politics. I am in this to kill you, via large directional bets provided by your bullshit margin liquidations. For the record, I sold out of EDC, for a quick profit. I sold it because it isn’t priority. I am holding onto all longs, until the shadows near my favorite urinal start smoking menthol cigarettes again. Last I checked, those bastards were smoking Pall Malls sans filter.

I will push the envelope on my longs, just like I press my bets against your career as a professional money manager. While it’s true, I am not a big game hunter. I still kill a lot.

Into the bell, for novelty, I added to my FTK position.

Top picks: CBL, AXL, CRS, BUCY

Too Late, Dipshit

If you missed this run, due to it “not feeling right,” it is too late to chase the market here. Although we could run another 1-2% higher from current levels, the risk-reward is no longer one sided. “The Fly” is only interested in high probability trades.

Having said that, I am interested in booking profits on recent longs, but not today. I endeavor to do so sometime tomorrow, or when The PPT flags OVERBOUGHT.

A Sublime Harmony of Mathematical Precision

I am fancier than all of you combined, AND MORE. I have marble floors and gold pens. My shoes cost more than yours and let’s not even begin to talk about watches. While you scurry about your housing tenements, looking for macaroni and cheese, “The Fly” is throwing beluga caviar on his crackers, while drinking champagne from the bottle. You might call me a glutton; but I am preparing for the after-life.

Breadth is robust. Everything is working in the markets favor, from currencies to commodities to hostile takeovers. Now, you can say it’s all a coincidence and SENOR TROPICANA is just “so fucking lucky.” But ask yourself pal, “can one man be so lucky?”

The stock Gods bless me; and in turn, I help you via The PPT. Bet against those things and lose your house, wife and kids.

Into this run, I will enjoy the splendour [sic], better known as “my fucking positions,” long egregious amounts of EDC, TNA, BUCY, GMCR, CBL etc.

“The Fly” wins again, even when you expect it most.

UPDATE: I sold out of ANF. No time for dogs.

A Hostile Open

Want to know something odd-ballish? Since publicly traded, TLT has never been down in August, booking higher for 9 years running, going on 10. Do not fear, small pleb, for The PPT will inform you of such marvels, going forward, via our new seasonality engine.

All of my stocks, with exception to the cock lovers at ANF, are charging higher today, thanks in small part to the all cash hostile takeover offer for POT. Fuck those shit producers: BHP will swallow them whole.

Off of that news, I think stocks will gain a little momo here, as investors scratch their balls and say ” hmmm, maybe BHP knows something we don’t.”

Either way, The PPT wins again.

Some of you nailed this trade, others didn’t. It’s like a war, where some will perish and others will emerge with shiny medals and shit. So you know, “The Fly” is the 5 star general of this blogging/investing game.

In closing, losses in VXX are expected into melt up mode. I will take the profits from longs and use them to average into VXX, when I deem fit. However, for now, enjoy the run.

UPDATE: I bought 10,000 AXL @ $9.52

iBC Studios Presents: 12631 The Movie (RATED: G)

Get the kids and enjoy the show!

[youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tVCFjo4lYro 616 500]

Serious Word About 12631: We just launched the Seasonality Engine for PPT subs, making this the 100th update to the system (for free) since inception (note: I might be exaggerating the number of updates, but not by much). If you are interested to know what stocks outperform/underperform, during certain months, you will love this new feature. With regards to 12631: it will serve as an addendum to The PPT. It will be a paid service, mainly due to the amount of work that is taking place putting it together. It will be, without question, the biggest update to The PPT architecture, since creation. As launch date nears, further details will be disseminated.
