I am Mr. Hyde

China is a very stupid place. Any stock market that is able to climb by 9% in one day is run by incompetent jackasses.

I no longer fear China, after yesterday’s display of stupidity. Put me in charge of the U.S. Naval Fleet; I’ll have them making our toys for free, within 15 days!

Regarding the market:

[[FXP]] is up. I own it.

[[CTRP]], [[SNCR]] and [[GSI]] are down. We’re off to a bad start already with these longs and shit.

Fuck [[POT]]. I’m still short the name and intend on covering, under $100. Call me crazy, see if I care.

[[SKF]] is down. Good, I am out. [[SRS]] is down. Bad, I am still in.

[[TSCM]] is down, as it should be. And, [[MS]] is up, enabling “The Fly” to short more at higher prices.

In short, I no longer have designs to blow up the globe or see U.S. indices crumble like, like a large crumb cake (bad analogy, fuck you). I think the bears are weak assholes, who do not have the gumption to fulfill their destinies.

From here on, I might become an asshole dip buyer of the worst order. The type of guy who will tell you, to your face, “inflation doesn’t matter, nor do jobs; buy more [[RIMM]].”

Oh yeah, that type of guy.

    So what the hell? You are the asshole dip buyer, who is short?

    The fact that you added an apostrophe on destinies doesn’t help any.

    Stocks go up in the long run, because there’s buying and selling and it goes up and down. When you have a 20% loss, you need a 25% gain to make up for it. Since stocks generally channel and stuff, and are bought and sold, people see greater opportunity on the long side for channeling stocks, so they generally channel upwards, beecuase there are more dip buyers than people who sell high. If people sell high, they have a chance to buy back even more with their profits, and they usually do.

    csgp press realeased their quarter, comparing numbers to last years quarter. . good strategy, since it’s a double. however, comparing numbers to last quarter, their numbers are halved. 08 guidance in line with estimates. if you think commercial re will be keeping up its volume, thenthe stock will not go down.

    When stocks like POT post good earnings and they go down that means game over. When they post bad earning like banks and they go up that means the game is on. Commodity stocks like gold suck and banks (KRE etf),XLF, SMH are good longs today for trdes.

    If you did have equal gains and losses percentage wize, stocks would all eventually go to zero. 20% gain from 100 to 120, 20% loss to 96, 20% gain to 115.2 20% loss to 92.16. If no money is added, and the same amount of money goes in and out, this would not happen. Factor in inflation, population growth, and people investing their earnings, and you have stocks go up

    Fly, sorry for asking a simpleton question but is it wise to load up on financials that are showing strength in the last few days which the market has been week? looks like they have a bit more gas in them before they putter out. I’m think MS ~50, MER ~48, and LEH ~46. Hey how about that each is decreasing by 2, how cosmic. Then again I am most likely wrong.

    Chivas, looks like a different service. I pulled a sample on their sentiment page from an April 12th issue, and they had bulls rising to 53.2% from about 49% … I have to think it’s increased from there, given the recent market action, no?

    The hedgies are like the Three Stooges going out of the door at one time-can’t get out fast enough. Out of commodity stocks and into chips,brokers and banks. ST target for XLF is 28-30.
    NEM posted blow out earnings and is not down as much as other golds but it should be a matter of time before it goes also.
    To those who feel you are late to XLF look at EZU etf. It’s a Europe etf with a bunch of financials and lags the US markets a bit.

    The Ag/commodity play is done. The only way I would stay in this trade is with the oil service co’s or maybe Nat gas. The Euro is down 1.5% against the $ today which is the most since 2004 and there are talks of the rate cuts ending. Get long the dollar and short commodities. At least for the next few days………

    It’s not a bear market anymore.

    Hasn’t been since April 1.

    Going to need some NEW bad news to sell off a market with China and India expanding like they are.

    Don’t forget — the top 10% of U.S. own 98% of the wealth. Housing recession doesn’t mean dick apparently. Those idiots don’t have any money anyway. This is the Roman Empire. The stock market has to go up because rich people own everything and everything always goes their way.

    Stick logic up you ass when making decisions. Go with gut instinct — pure emotion. Works a whole lot easier. Thinking is for losers.
