I Have Many Enemies

Most of these men have deformed faces and reside from the darkest, sewage infested, corners of the Earth. They wear shirts made from burlap and pants made from velcro. They drink tea, made from wild gypson plants and eat the flesh of domesticated hamsters.

I fight these people every day. “The Fly” is a beacon of truth in a world filled with unsavory liars, who would slit the throats of elderly people in wheeled chairs, in order to take their food stamps or take the rubber off of their wheeled chairs.

I have fought many battles and seen many things; but none as hideous and monstrous as the cretins who circle the wagons of truth on the internet.

These men are heathens of the lowest order, unable to discern a bar of soap from a bowl of strawberry jelly.

So, when you are over there, in the discomfort of your bullshit pleather chair from Staples, just know, “The Fly” is in the trenches, having a good ol’ time tossing nuclear bomb grenades back and forth with gargoyles.

Top Pick: short Petrohawk Energy Corporation [[HK]]

    Man you’re hilarious FLY. I actually sitting on a discount pleather chair from Staples right now.

    I really want to feel a “sense of panic” in the selling for the market to bottom. So far today, not seeing the panic.

    “Today there are young men and women graduating from college who have a tremendous work ethic, but they get lost trying to understand the logic behind a whole variety of market moves. While I’m a staunch advocate of higher education, there is no training — classroom or otherwise — that can prepare for trading the last third of a move, whether it’s the end of a bull market or the end of a bear market. There’s typically no logic to it; irrationality reigns supreme, and no class can teach what to do during that brief, volatile reign. The only way to learn how to trade during that last, exquisite third of a move is to do it, or, more precisely, live it — a sort of baptism by fire. One has to experience both the elation and fear as markets move five and six standard deviations from conventional definitions of value. ” Paul Tudor Jones

    If the above is true then we are at a bottom. The irrationality in the market is overwhelming.

    J, Which HF mgr or financier isn’t regarded as a prick ?

    I am currently negotiating a transaction with a guy who has done a deal with Icahn. Tells me Carl is the biggest prick you could ever come across. The guy cheats and rips everyone off. He has excellent lawyers and gets away with it. Tells me he is surprised someone hasn’t come and put a bullet in Carl’s head considering how many people he’s screwed over.

    All these guys are pricks . Some are just bigger than others.

    Oh and that $30 billion loss in networth that Sheldon Adelson has experienced. Couldn’t happen to a better person. The guy is a complete asshole. With this whole credit crisis, I think justice is finally being served. A lot of those suffering are the ones who really deserve to.

    Anyone else notice the SKF at $180??? The banks are getting hammered, yet the rest of the complex is holding up quite well, thank you.

    I had SKF from $105 and sold out way too early the other day at $155. Didn’t realize there would be this much juice left.

    Anyway, the hood river trader likes HK short also.

    I love this post.

    On the stock market….a great FT article (and chart) the other day demonstrated that due to the 46% selloff in the S&P 500, we have now come down to almost the exact historical 10-year trailing price to earnings multiple going back to 1900, which would mean we’re fair valued. However, if the past is any indication, when we’re heading into a significant recession, we pay much less for earnings. If we drop to 7-8 times trailing 10 year earnings on the S&P, then the index would fall to around 600, from 850 today…..another 30%.

    This is not over, 850 will not hold on the S&P. Get short or get out.

    Maybe. Or, more likely, Redstone has margin calls. So short CBS. Could work. Too risky for me. If SPOOS lose 839 I’ll move buy order down under 6.

    At this rate, GE is going BK. What do I care?
