Time to Kill Some Bears

These grotesquely deformed men are sweating in their burlap shirts, as the market slowly melts higher. What scares them is the “fuck you, you’re dead” move in commodity stocks.

As you know, people who short stocks, after the market craters 25%, are well deserving of having all of their coin taken from them. These people are worthy of insult to injury afflictions too. May their brokerage accounts go to zero and their bullshit bachelor pads be burglarized, all in the same day.

With the Fed meeting ahead, I would not want to be short equities. The text book says, we rally until the the monstrous faces of bearshitters are ripped off with old pick axes.

Also, brave men, like Vince Farrell, are calling bottoms on CNBC. This, as you know, is an excellent omen.

With my money, I am buying small lots of [[UYM]] and [[EEM]] . My cash position is still north of 20% and my gains are extraordinarily bountiful.

    LOL! This quote made my spill coffee all over my monitor due to sheer laughter.

    I am not selling UYM until at least 30ish level from down here…

    The rate cut will need to be at least 75 basis, in order to rally. A full percent would instantly decapitate the shorts. A 50 basis cut will likely invite a yawn, maybe we even close down. They need to be aggressive.

    I put this intellectual masterpiece on the other thread. Here’s my thesis on why the US stock market will go much much higher than people think.

    Pro

    In the whole scheme of things who really gives a shit about Russia. The only thing we need to worry about is that Putin doesn’t turn the gas off in Europe if he wakes up pissed at them one morning…. The Frogs have to worry about the Luxury goods market not being so much in demand with the Ruskies. so other than oil gas getting pumped Russia is a big fat fucking zero in the world.

    China is interesting.

    The fall in stocks won’t effect them all that much because basically the average Chinese is not wealth driven like westerners in the sense of having lots of hard assets and a stock portfolio. He doesn’t have have any and is just stating to buy the shitty little apartment. What he has is income. The stock market over there is treated like a casino, so the drop is going to have zero effect on them. Their wealth is left in the banks which the government inflates away and steals it from them through inflation.

    What they have is a budget surplus and a coupla trillion dollars in reserves. They will pump prime to blazes over there like there is no tomorrow. Seeing it’s still a command/control economy in lots of ways the commie fuckers who run things won’t give shit if they build a tower that remains empty for a while. So China is still going to grow even though it will be really unbalanced. Their comeuppance will come, but not now.

    Seeing they own 2 trillion of reserves and have no shot of getting out, they’re fucked. the US will basically inflate the value of that away from them. Don’t think they get it yet, but they soon will and once that happens the sovereign wealth fund will be looking to escape the inflation by buying US assets such as stocks like crazy. Watch. commodity companies too as they know what end demand there is in that stuff.

    Interestingly the other SOV’s will too once they see what the Fed is up to as they are all long up the ying yang in dollars.

    So I actually see the SOV’s being a big bid in US stocks starting in the next few months once they get wind of what is going on in terms of the value of their dollar holdings. They have no choice as they can’t get out of the dollar as they’re too big and will lose a ton of value trying to get out, so the thing to do is to invest in the US. With that size it is impossible to get out. Watch them all scurry looking to buy pieces of large US firms. That’s where the bid for US stocks is going to come from pretty soon is my bet and in a large aggressive way.

    DevilDog was literally posting every 5th post during the crash talk. So I dont think the obsession in watching him cry at home with a blankie calling daddy for his 1.5 million is unfair. Also, I hope he did end up getting his hands on it and shorted it all.

    They’re putting the future inflation trade back on. Even though everyone knew the FED would take rates to 1% last week, the worry then was deflationary depression. But today they’re no longer worried about deflation, but future inflation, so commodities come back in vogue.

    Typical schizophrenic behavior.

    I think you are right. We are the only game in town. My concern is social issues in these country’s. A lot of people left the farms for a better life and are out of work. Do they have unemployment or shit like government work camps. The fact that Putin is still pulling the strings could go either way if they terminate the fucker.

    FCX is a screaming buy if there’s any kind of european rate cuts. frankly, it was a buy 2 days ago, but, as usual, i’m unable to trade and missed that move. hopefully the fed here only does a 25 or 50 at most, so it will sell off a bit. if the euros followed with a nice cut of their own, it would be a 200 up s&p party, regardless of economic fundamentals.

    however, i don’t think the world economy is out of the woods by a long shot. all the efficiency gains that we created in the early ’00s to raise stock values are no longer available. that boat sailed. mergers and acquisitions are our only hope for stocks to go up. that said, there could be nice gains in the large caps going forward, especially if we can ease the credit market. stuff like XOM may start snapping up smaller players.

    Would someone please explain to me what the phrase, “buy the rumor, sell the news”, means?

    I did some research, and rumor has it that the Fed might cut interest rates by 1% today. Wow! When did that come about, and who knew? Anyway, they’re about to announce their decision, I think today.

    I’m confused. What should I do? Advice appreciated.

    Looking at the day chart for the Dow, it is set up to tick the top of the channel around 2:00 or so and then head south towards the lower channel line. If it stays in the channel is anyone’s guess, mine is that is breaks through it slightly and closes about 20-40 points up for the day. Tomorrow’s GDP numbers will be released and any component can be used to justify an excuse to give back a lot of yesterday’s gain.
