With today’s melt ups in Flotek Industries, Inc. [[FTK]] and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. [[GMCR]] , “The Fly” is now up more than 100% for the year. Quite honestly, I did not expect to enjoy such immodest returns; but I accept them with a dark heart and fist full of sand.
If you take a step back, ever so gingerly, there is an important lesson to be learned here, which is: Betting against “The Fly” is pure madness.
As you could imagine, I am quite busy today, dealing with issues all related to the business of responsible asset management. So you know, into 2010, I will be building up positions in Cummins Inc. [[CMI]] , Flowserve Corporation [[FLS]] and ICICI Bank Limited (ADR) [[IBN]] , while celebrating winship in Ctrip.com International, Ltd. (ADR) [[CTRP]] , Green Mountain Coffee Roasters Inc. [[GMCR]] and Sears Holdings Corporation [[SHLD]] .

Congrats! You had a monster year while constantly blogging. Fuckin’ A.
well done fly!
I am up 498% u fucking self-absorbed POS website spammer who likely would rather sell shit to his fag followers than actually try to run a fund. which u cant cause u suck balls…
As an aside, I’d like to take this opportunity to inform all single males that I am gay.
i really, really feel sorry for you…just sayin’
And I am sure you eat purple dinosaurs for dinner and drink pink daffodils.
New term for the dictionary: “Internet Gangster”. Definition: random drive-by posters who make outrageous claims which are impossible to substantiate, as if anyone is supposed to believe them, while speaking to Fly in a threatening manner.
Nice job, Fly.
Some people are just HATERS.
Ignore.
hahaha
the occasional drive-by is actually a breath of fresh air to clear the stale stench constantly emanating from mouth-breathing brown-nosers on this site
STFU
you’re either up 498% on a real small amount or up less…no one up 500% YTD on serious money would need to spaz out with a comment like that. You should be celebrating and sharing your expertise. good luck.
didn’t the fly buy Flotek upwards of 1.8.. hehe.
I think you’re right on that one.

Whats your outlook for the euro and the pound?
I am still down nicely on FTK. However, it offered a nice last minute boost.
Well done, Fly! Congrats! I am sure your fees and other monetary rewards are bountiful. They are certainly deserved.
Hopefully Mrs. Fly does not read this post, or your excursions through Whole Foods may become even more egregious.
She NEVER reads the site or Twitter.
Needless to say, she would not approve.
Are you sure about that?
If Steve The Neighbor reads it
and his wife reads it,
and your wives are friends…..
Mrs. Steve reads this site every day and so does Mrs. Fly.
They have had many discussions over the use of the foul language and how it could effect Fly, Jr. on the tennis court and in school.
Not even Greg Solomon could approach your winship sir.
You comport yourself with dignity and grace!!!
Happy New Year ..KING COCK
Fly,
Congrats on 09. I note you didn’t include SD in your “building positions” list. have you moved off that?
I like SD. Still in it.
Congratulations.
Where will The Fly be going to celebrate 2009’s massive winnings?
Well done Senior Fly! Well deserved.
Awesome, just awesome. Congratulations Le Fly.
Well done Sir Fly! indeud!
Fly, did you ever sell any FTK after the drop or buy more/average down?
Nice going on GMCR. For what its worth, I had an arduous time getting my hands on one up here in the Great North as most stores were sold out.
Nicely done. Appreciate the picks, insights and blog/prose.
GMCR was a huge win, blowing through all expectations including mine.
Well done!
Good job neighbor. I am thinking of turning over my unemployment check to you for trading purposes.
Also Steve, Jr. has some Bar Mitzvah money he wants to turn over. His Uncle Leo and Aunt Thelma Schwartzberg gave him a whopper of a check.
Fly,
Congrats on a very nice year and good luck in the one to come. Glad I could ride along on some of the picks. Just wish I did better at deciding when to follow as I didn’t play along on a couple nice moves up in GMCR and EQIX among others. Oh well, there is a lesson there just the same. Not sure what my percentage gain is year over year on all accounts, but my active Scottrade one is well over 100% up since March. Mutual funds (Roth and pension funds) no where near as good a year.
Thanks again for the constant entertainment and the occasional stock idea to research further.

No prob bill. I believe you are my most loyal reader, dating from the beginning.
