In or Out?

The Whale is threatening, its maw dark and deep.
Should you leap?
Truly the Whale can take you places, no? If you can handle the tight accomodations, the rancid air, the weak light, the pulsing, peristaltic movement, that is.
No one said this was going to be easy. Nothing worth accomplishing ever much is.

I like everything I’ve recounted before here (just page back and note the silver and gold miners, and the Cree, Inc. [[CREE]] I have chosen for my March Madness pick and the Veeco Instruments Inc. [[VECO]] I did not, but own still). Also, don’t forget [[PAL]] and [[PTM]] .
I also like [[TBT]] as long term hold, as Treasuries are doomed. Anyone who tells you different or tries to game a quick-slick-Rick-trade in long bonds via [[TLT]] is merely sticking his tongue in a razor sharp blender whilst daring a two year-old to play “hammer the peg” with his tiny wooden hammer poised over the “Crush/Chop/Puree” buttons.
It’s just a matter of time, imho.
As a bonus, and today, only, I like coal here as well. It’s another commodity that the Chinese love, and God knows, we burn most what we love.
Try Massey Energy Company [[MEE]] here for starters, since Stanley Druckenmiller likes it, and he’s George Soros’s smarter (read “Republican”) partner. I also like Alpha Natural Resources, Inc. [[ANR]] and even the old discredited Jacksonian, Natural Resource Partners LP [[NRP]] — even if only for the fat dividend.
Last, but not least, I think United Parcel Service, Inc. [[UPS]] is getting ready to run again. Since it rules the Transports, I think that means the Trannies will run as well. Dow Theory gives you Paul Harvey’s “rest of the story.” Bad news for Bears.
Again.
Ciao for now.*

*Extreme apologies for my recent lightness here. It seems that 2010 looks like it’s going to be a pretty damn good M&A year. That’s nice, since 2009 sucked quail eggs… however, it also means I’m going to be running around like a chicken sans chapeau for a bit. Catch you on the high side.
