Fly Buy: GDP

Started a position here. In for the squeeze.

Disclaimer: Follow me on this trade and your brain will fall out of your head. And, you may lose money.

The art of proper money management is not hard to understand, but woefully difficult to practice. Let me school some of you what I am doing now, AND MORE.

I booked a dastardly loss on MLNX, selling 90% of my position. I said I was going to sell on a bounce. Well, here we are 10% off the lows: I sold. Additionally, I sold out of my largest long position: EWZ. And, I sold out 90% of my TSO position. I am not quite done selling; but you get the gist. As you know, I already have a large VXX position. So, it is not required of my person to add to shorts, as the elimination of my longs coincide with the increased exposure to my VXX.

A great man once said “When in doubt, rub some VXX on your chest.”

At any rate, now you know why I was frantically buying stocks, late last week, despite The PPT nearing OVERBOUGHT. I needed to offset the fucking VXX in my portfolios. I suspected we’d get another push higher. I wanted to participate on the long side, good Sirs.

In closing, I am back in control of my spaceship and circling the areas for nice spots of make crop circles.

Developing…

When I fall asleep, I dream of stocks and shit. Last night I had a dream about FTK. It’s all very vague to me now. But if I remember correctly, I Molotov cocktail’d their fucking HQ. Here we are, another day passing by, with the market doing all sorts of wondrous things. If I was a seal, I’d clap. But, since I am not a seal, I only plan to take profits.

I am down quite handsomely on my initial purchase of VXX. However, as always, intend to buy more around these prices, so that I might profit from the correction that is scheduled to commence.

When will it commence, you ask?

Answer: Soon.

With my money, I intend to bulk up on cash. And in my personal accounts, I will avoid riding stocks through earnings, like homeless people entering my subway car.

All in all, I’m doing well, with long positions in EMN, EWZ, CIEN, SHLD, GLW, TSO, BAC, IBN, just to name a few. As the market approaches 10,500, I will exercise caution.

I invite you to appreciate your insignificance to me, as you type words onto your computer screen. While it may seem to be important to you (your words), the universal reality is you are nothing more than a series of digits archived at your local census bureau.

Most people in my profession scoff at the idea of enlightening the proletariat about things to do with proper money management. The closest most of you get to cogent ideas are via Fast Money reruns or old clips of Paul Tudor Jones, circa 1980’s. Viz.

The blogosphere is populated with oversized babies who lash out for attention, while attempting to minimize the efforts of others. “The Fly” does not care to rip the spines out of his fellow bloggers, for they are not competition. Their prolific blogging efforts only enhance the traffic statistics of ibankcoin. Quite frankly, once people read them, compared to me, my website’s value doubles every 6 months.

In closing, next week will mark a massive movement in the Dow Jones Industrial average. I hope many of you are prepared for the action and reserve your little comments to yourselves, as I am unwilling to play “good host” any longer.

All aboard, fuckface.

Heading into “prime-time” hurricane season, the world is as hot as ever! As you readily know, hurricanes feed on warm waters, like zombies on brains. Every year, like clock-work, Senor Tropicana, aka “The Fly”, likes to delve into “hurricane plays” with the intention of profiting off human suffering and capitulation.

As karma would have it, more often than not these bets end up losing me money. But there is always next year, no? So here we are, preparing to rebuild Louisiana and large swaths of Florida again (time machine) and banking coin off gasoline disruptions throughout the United Steaks of America.

Very simply, I am buying refiners, via TSO and maybe DK later on. Also, in the event old natty supply gets “cut the fuck off,” I am long large amounts of SD and FTK, both suck dick and have fleeced me of large amounts of coin over the years. However, there’s always next year, no?

For now, I am content with my current “hurricane plays,” and will add to them as needed.

As an aside, into this rally, I doubled my GLW position, added to TSO, EWZ and BAC too.

I am amazed that no one is talking about the SEC settlement with DELL. In a nutshell, DELL computer was committing fraud, on a grand scale, between the years 2002-2006. They were being bribed by INTC, so that they would use pentium chips exclusively, then used said cash to meet earnings. Let me be clear: the SEC unveiled internal emails that revealed the conspiracy to “use INTC money” to meet estimates. Furthermore, without the INTC money, the company would have missed estimates every single quarter during that time frame.

As a result, DELL got a slap on the wrist and a 100 million dollar fine. In addition, Michael Dell and several top executives were fined a few mill and that’s it! Nothing to see here, just motherfucking fraud on a big dicked scale. To think, during that time frame, when DELL’s share price was ripping off tits to the upside, people wrongly lauded them for having “superior supply chain management”  and “top of the line leadership.” Bullshit!

DELL, like Enron, cheated. Unlike Enron, no one at DELL is going to jail. Why the fuck not?

Since DELL started using AMD chips, DELL’s income has declined by 75%. They attributed that to slashing prices, when in reality it is because the INTC bribes stopped flowing into the company coffers. Those motherfuckers have been lying to investors for nearly a decade and no one takes them to task for it. Michael Dell should resign immediately. He is not some sort of genius in supply chain management, only cooking the books.

You cannot stop a gay market, for it thinks not. Do not walk in front of a “loose trains,” for they were made to run you over. Never feed a goat through an electric fence.

The rally is continuing because men in burlap hoodies and velcro pants have lost their marbles. It’s Friday and everyone is scared and stupid. What else did you expect, reason?

PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

This planet is so stupid, we’re liable to move 1,000 points up and down today, inside the amount of time it takes for me to make a sandwich.  We are likely nearing the top end of the trading range. However, runaway markets tend to, ummm, runaway. So, do not expect tops and bottoms to be hashed out cleanly and without killing a few bad investors in the process.

I need to run along now, as I have meetings scheduled this afternoon. Into hurricane season, I’m a big fan of the refiners, specifically TSO, DK and SUN.

I took a loss in my personal accounts, but made money where it counted: clients. Back at it tomorrow.

Top picks: TSO, BAC, EMN

Coming soon…

Due to my obvious disobedience to the sublime laws of perfection, I was punished today, with blood curdling horse kicks to the chest, on a personal level, via TZA. As you know by now, I sold TZA and bought Texas sized positions in BAC, EMN, TSO, just to name a few. I sold out of my third largest position, FLS, because I can. And, I sold out of NVDA, because it sucks.

At the present, my cash position is rich and I am itching to buy lots of names. But, it’s important to remember, wealth isn’t created in one trading session, only lost. So, I will take my time reallocating my capital, in order to right my ship and get back on track. The truth of the matter is: my recent foray into VXX was misguided and wrong. I based my decision to buy it on a hunch, rather than my time machine. Being in the hole already, I’ve decided to ride it out, based upon the fact that we are in a choppy trading range. Today’s garbage is tomorrow’s commodity, according to the NYC sanitation department.

I want you to focus very quietly and understand what is transpiring. The market is spitting in the face of investors daily. Despite today’s donkey cocked spike, GS is down. Figure that one out.

I am about 5% off my all-time highs; but I should be 10% higher from here. My personal account is up so much, I am unable to share it with you, for fear of  jealousy driven retribution.

“The Fly” knows exactly what he is doing and will execute said plan, within days.

Oh, by the way, my promise of “5 days” for a certain handful of stocks to lift higher came to fruition. Your apologies are not needed, nor will they be accepted.
