Bears Icy Cold

“Not even close, fuckface,” will be the final words of Senor Tropicana, just prior to him leaving the Earth for good, off to his home planet. Much to the chagrin of the bears, m&a is back in force, as evidenced by today’s action in Brocade Communications Systems, Inc. [[BRCD]] . Believe you me, there are many deals to be done. Over the last few months, middle market deals are on fire. It’s only a matter of time before you see big firms start swallowing smaller names, like Aruba Networks, Inc. [[ARUN]] , ValueClick, Inc. [[VCLK]] or [[MWW]] whole.

Once again, my experiment in mathematical precision was a success. By this I mean, The PPT gave you the exact bottom in the market, to the day.

With my money, as you know, I’ve been buying General Cable Corporation [[BGC]] , [[MWW]] , IAC/InterActiveCorp [[IACI]] , Corning Incorporated [[GLW]] , Guess?, Inc. [[GES]] , POSCO (ADR) [[PKX]] , Sociedad Quimica y Minera (ADR) [[SQM]] , ADTRAN, Inc. [[ADTN]] and TriQuint Semiconductor [[TQNT]] —just to name a few.

With the market lifting off here, all bets are off. The bears are about to fall victim to this sort of shit.

At any rate, “The Fly” is pleased with today’s action, while boiling over mad at the shadows near my favorite urinal. Those fuckers keep telling me to sell stocks. One of those fuckers just pissed me off so much, I knocked him into one of the idle the soap containers.

On a closing note, DISQUS is a shitty comment tool. Any blogger worth his salt, or possessing a modicum of self respect, will never use such a lowly software application on his/her blog.

      He can’t shake the jealousy he harbours for a much more successful blogger by the name of Tim Knight. Its obvious it is eating him inside that one man can outdo all you peeps on ibc. I for one wish you good luck. -Robb

        Rob:

        If by successful you mean that you support a liar and a bunch of losers then go quite ahead, keep it up, fucker.

        Furthermore why would anyone be possibly jealous of someone that has lost most of his capital (but won’t fess up)

        Knight is not successful as the dishonest loon has lost most of his capital and won’t come clean with his innumerate and dumbass readership who congregate there licking each other wounds because they don’t understand markets least of all knight

          Clearly you’ve been losing money your wouldnt be spewing all this anger and hate, I suggest therapy and am not trying to offend you or make fun of you. Im not a devotee of his but by success I mean traffic. Here take a look if you dont believe me.

            Nothing like multimillions in losses as long as you have traffic on your site.

            And of course being a reader I really would prefer to make Knight’s site popular as opposed to say making major coin.

            Who gives a shit about Traffic? It’s not about traffic and how many losers congregate at one site.

            Clearly you’ve been losing money your wouldnt be spewing all this anger and hate,

            I don’t hate him at all. I hate the fact that he lies to his innumerate readership though. I hate it that his influence has possibly lost those losers money. I hate the fact that he thinks he understands market fundamentals when he knows shit all about them and no one questions him over there.
            Example: He used the way some ugly British singer was adulated as a sign the market had turned in looking back on his “analysis”. That would have to be the most pathetic thing I’ve ever read.

            I don’t hate him. I just hate what he’s doing and the financial web would be a lot cleaner without his ilk.

            I hate the fact that he’s a moron and you seem to be for supporting that sort of shit.

      Fucking hate DISQUS

      Any decent sized comment stream and the java processing(being shitty as java normally is) goes into overdrive. Minimum specs required just to read stupid comments, put your netbook away. And that’s not even addressing the bugs.

      Honest to ZEUS, I harbor no ill feelings towards TIM. I just like fucking with people. I wish him and his ilk well.

      As for DISQUS:

      It just blows.

        If you want to know I dont follow his gospel like some perhaps. Now im long FAS and QLD in my short-term trading account. FAS from low 75 and QLD mid 48’s. Tight stops on both and I am leaning bearish into new year but not catastrophic bearish.

          Hey robb,

          I’m a newb to this site. I dare say that fly and everyone here have their picks right.

          so, what is your purpose for coming here exactly?

          Seriously Robb, go fuck your thin-skinned self. Hop right back over to that love-fest where fat Timmy is teaching people to play the “My Wallet Is Bigger Than The Market” game. Seriously, in the space of three months he has literally covered every single thing a person can do wrong to blow their account up. And now people are convinced he’s actually going to try to start a hedge fund with this shit, a guy that gets sweaty butt-checks over 20 contracts is going to manage money? There’s going to be a freaking homicide if this guy gets his hands on other peoples money. It will be a lot of fun imagining his investor communications though, no more you get what you pay for bull shit.

          And disqus is crap, fine idea, terrible implementation.

    I like the way Fly uses the term “believe you me” I’ve only ever heard Brits say that, I wonder where he picked that up?

      Actually, the only time I’ve ever heard the phrase was when uttered by Randy Quaid’s character Russell Casse in “Independence Day”. I picture senor mosca as more Russell Casse like than Brit like.

        “Believe you me” is classic old school New York/Bronx/Brooklyn talk.

        Watch any old Marx Bros, Abbot & Costello, Three Stooges, 30’s & 40’s era comedies (most dramas will leave out this exaggerative) and you’ll hear “believe you me” a hunnert times.

        It’s usually used in anticipation of some kind of punch line. Sometimes in the literal “punch” sense.

          I have NEVER heard a Brit, or any Commonwealth country person say “Believe you me,” by the way.

          Ozzie J — would you concur?

    Umm no, my wife uses it when she’s serious about something like not leaving soiled undergarments strewn all over the bathroom like any self respecting male.

    She’s scots Irish and obviously got if off her parents who derived from the criminal class when those fucks were all dumped here en masse because you fuckers had had a rebellion and closed down that racket over there.. I think it’s an old brit term as you hear it here often.

      Interesting… I wonder if it came here via Noel Coward, then?

      Seriously, it’s all over the early U.S. comic “talkies.”

      BTW — yer soiled tidey whiteys? “Tee Emm Eye”
