Recessions Are For Losers

Clearly, Bernanke and Co. are not that.

Heavens forbid.

    Crazy day … I had to leave around 3:30 and I check my account to find I got filled on some FXP @ 85.90 .

    And the oddest one of all. I put out an order to short 200 WPO @ 717. I got filled on 5. Which leaves me up 13 pts on 5 shares. After commissions & taxes, enough for a Happy Meal & a latte.

    fly, first of all i have great respect for you. thanks for keeping it up!

    now, i understand being right is more important than being consistent, but what is the reasoning behind your reversal?

    fed assumes all the risk of mortgage, that may pause margin calls but fundamentally aren’t we just delaying the problem?

    Kappa:

    I have not changed my bearish position, but delayed it.

    Days like today can resonate for awhile, enabling parked cash to rush back in.

    All I’m suggesting is to do nothing. That’s all.
