THE ANDY SWAN BOTTOM LIVES

As you know, “The Fly” nailed the bottom and “gave” partial credit to a great man: Andy Swan.

Many of you idiots have no idea who he is or what he represents. That is not important, at this critical juncture of stock market bliss. What’s important is the reversal and how it affected my checking account. Quit honestly, I was a little worried over bitchy margin clerks and asinine Great Depressions, towards the end of the day. However, as you know through documented proof, “The Fly” fucking owns this market, as if it were made from hamburgers— and I am the hamburgerlar. Oh and A. Swan owns the market too.

Well done.

In closing, I am riding [[FXP]] , National-Oilwell Varco, Inc. [[NOV]] , [[ROM]] and [[EEV]] higher, while losing a little bit in [[DUG]] , [[UYM]] and [[REW]] .

At the end of the day, miraculously, I closed +1.8%, reversing an intraday loss of more than 2%.

In other words, “The Fly” wins again, even when it appears he is losing badly.

    We’ll probably drop 1000 tomorrow. Seriously this market has no bottom. I would rather we get this over and head to zero. I am tired of this up and down action. Its like watching a poor quality 80s porn flick.

    I’m still hung over from Vegas. Its been over 24 hrs and I still feel high and wasted.

    Fly: Epic reversal

    As I previously mentioned I loaded the fucking boat full of UYG at 5.60 down to 5.35. I was not fucking kidding, 1000 lots every nickle down thanks to DEVILDOG. Thats 6000 shares at a cost basis of 5.47. Stops are reset at 5.61 now since that is where I started and I don’t want to lose money on any of the lots and would like to cover commissions. Most likely I will get murdered in the AM but at least its fun right?

    Caught Between a Rock and a Hard Stock

    The year 2009 is going to be an incredibly brutal economic period. Unemployment will spike to levels not seen in our lifetime (ex the folks who are in their 80s). Having said that, the amount of stimulus being supplied by the Fed/federal government is “unprecedented” (a word that doesn’t really do justice to the magnitude of those actions). The fact that we have these major forces colliding almost daily — with one or the other arbitrarily holding sway on any given day — makes it especially dangerous to hold positions. The potential for a sizzling rally makes it dangerous to be short, while the upcoming economic disaster makes it terribly dangerous to be long. For now, I prefer being far more liquid than usual, as I have no interest in taking on an inordinate amount of risk.

    So Fly calls “a bottom”. As a neutral observer, I have watched this board switch from bullish to bearish to bullish to bearish almost twice a day for the past week.

    I submit it is IMPOSSIBLE to make money switching like that. The only thing you get is WHIPSAWED.

    If the market appears bullish-bearish-bullish-bearish
    and nobody knows what the fuck is going on, I submit:

    a) get into 100% cash and STAY THERE; or

    b) get LONG and stay there, because the market is down almost 50% and many stocks are dowwn 80-90%.

    D-Dog,

    Compare volume of lows from 10-10 with 10-27 with 11-17. Volume has dried up as the “re-tests” check to see if there is any supply down there to slide though – no doing. All bounces are showing much greater stength than those pushes to the lows. Better set up an apt with Tracy Baker, MD as the upcoming rally is expected to cause your shorts to blow up in your face leaving your kids to even shriek in horror and run from the dinner table as you stagger in. This will be fun.

    We were talking about the “bottom” today at the office and the consensus was that 7000 is just not scary enough.

    6500 sounded fucked-up, though.

    So my new feeling is that we will blade through 7000, briefly touch down around the 6500-6700 level and then bounce.

    I just wanted it to be clear what a “Dinosaur Bottom” would look like, since your blog is now obsessed with bottoms.
