How’s That Decoupling Working Out For You?

I always find it amusing when talking skulls espouse the theory of “foreign decoupling” from the U.S. wreck. Please, for the zillionth time, there is no such thing.

As sure as I’m sitting here, Asian and South American banks will get compressed into small pieces of candy, for the bears, on the news of a widespread/global housing crisis. If you thought the California real estate market was nuts, wait until you see what happens to the speculators in Hong Kong. Those fuckers will be swinging from lamp posts.

Swinging, mind you.

Assholes like Cramer have been sucking the balls off of South American banks. For what?

Those ham hockers know how to run financial institutions like “The Fly” knows how to operate a server farm.

Just in case you thought “foreign assholes” have been laughing at our banking crisis, take a look at their banks:

[[IBN]], [[HDB]], [[STD]], [[MTU]], [[NMR]], [[BBV]], [[RBS]], [[BBD]], [[ITU]], [[UBS]], [[CS]], [[DB]], [[BNS]], [[AIB]], [[SAN]], [[BCH]], [[BMA]], [[BFR]], [[BLX]], [[CIB]], [[BCS]], [[HBC]], [[KB]], [[LYG]], [[MFG]], [[NMR]], [[SHG]], [[WF]], [[UBB]] and [[WBK]].

From my vantage point, thus far, the only bank unscathed is [[BAP]] aka “The Bank of Cocaine.” Obviously, they’re an “ag play.”

    the SKF has gone batty. why would anyone bother with financials ever again, when you can just buy the SKF and print money each day.

    Yeah… That SKF chart looks insane. I’ve been making money in REW but I keep telling myself not to touch SKF till it comes back a bit. I figured the CNBCtards would get a least a 1 day rally out of their Kudlow optimism.

    The fuckface, permabulls, now like to put their arms around the “Blame Oil” theory … lol! Oil is only part of this country’s problems … the big problem is too many fuckers have been living beyond their means.

    Idiot fuckers like Kudlow, are gonna discover that when energy and all the other bullshit with it, rolls over, down will go the market averages too. It’s all fucked.

    It’s time to pay the piper, fisting style … we’re going down, GOING DOWN IN A BLAZE OF GLORY!

    I hate decoupling, it just doesn’t seem like the manly thing to do.
    Technically, we are still in danger of a 3% – 5% counter-trend rally. Longside names which should do well for a short-term trade are: NCTY, AZZ and MDU. These are stocks to date, I would never consider marrying one because they are all way too slutty.

    I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and ass-u-ming your moniker is a clever pun on selling. Yes?

    what is the fucking problem with QID today?

    Besides that it’s a double short on the Cubes?

    I wouldn’t get too worried, here.

    The Cubes are beef bullion, ovah heah.

    LOL.. Merlin, FYI, my crotchety conjurer buddy — “bear raids” only occure in bull markets.

    What you are witnessing is a bullshit weak kneed rally.

    Prepare for continued scimatars to the belly.

    My nic precedes my occupation as a money manager. As a resident of San Antonio, my youth was spent fighting banditos, cattle rustlers and people I just plain didn’t like. My weapon of choice was actually a bowie knife which I frequently used to cut my way through walls of human flesh. However, I was also handy with a pistol, thus the moniker.
    Eventually, I was forced into retirement due to waning reflexes and poor eyesight. Trading stocks fit nicely with my prior experience.

    Lightening. –

    Well, “lightning” is the fast electricity that comes from the sky.

    “Lightening” is what you do when you’re long in this shitty market.

    Just wondering if the misspelling was intentional, or not.

    My nickname precedes my occupation as a money manager by 35 years. I don’t have a preference for being long or short. As a resident of San Antonio, my youth was spent fighting cattle rustlers, horse thieves and and people I just plain didn’t like. My weapon of choice was actually the bowie knife, which is why I suppose the nic was modified to distinguish me from a gunslinger.
    Eventually, I was forced into retirement due to waning reflexes and poor eyesight. Trading stocks was the only occupation I could find that blended nicely with my prior work experience.
