Goldman Sachs Killed Elvis

In general, I don’t like people. People are full of shit, selfish, upright walking pigs, always trying to further their nefarious agendas. Instead friends, I have acquaintances that can be utilized for personal or business purposes. The main difference: I am forthright in my intentions. This is a very important distinction between a hermit, which describes most of you internet shuffle board motherfuckers, and a person (“The Fly”) who plays the game of life  as if it was a fucking chess board.

I will beat you senseless with a Panamanian sugarcane, straight from the ever ominous “Darien Gap.”

Many of my old colleagues crave the attention of others. And, like dogs, they beg for “social bones”, by way of depraved parties and/or internet communique. Let me tell you something right now: avoid such people as if they were the bubonic plague itself.

As for Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. [[GS]] :

Next to Apple Inc. [[AAPL]] , there is no better institution in the United States. All of the conspiracy bullshit surrounding Goldman puts a smile on my face; because, like “The Fly,” those fuckers aren’t interested in making friends. As a man with large testicles and excess testosterone, I am proud of the crazy bastards from Goldman, even if they killed Elvis.

          Word to the wise …. never mix politics with music

          Enjoy their tunes and forget about their “causes” …. just soap box junkies with an audience

            I wasn’t there to see him. He had some balls lecturing the audience as an opening act.

            Fucking git.

            Dylan said nothing but the music, of course … and a polite “good night,” and “thank you.”

            What’s the difference between a musician lecturing his audience on politics and a financial blogger doing the same with his readers?

            Here is the difference, and it is pretty simple, people pay musicians to play music. The financial blogger isn’t being paid (directly anyways). Additionally, politics quite often affect financial matters.

      I hope it’s the Slanty eyed version of Goldman Sachs. I am sick of the Jewish white man’s version. Elvis never existed, and Goldman created the idea to sell albums to unsuspecting white trash housewives. Now on with the show, 3 day weekends are such a bore, especially with the winter olympics and fucking Nancy Karrigan crying about her dad.

    Funny shit related to this post – Saw a “Belvis”- that is black Elvis in Little Rock, and here in Denver this last weekend at a fundraiser/wine tasting, the evening was closed with “ShElvis” a female Elvis. She was more man than wOman. And if I remember right, sang more songs that were not Elvis then those that were.

    I put on an ideological trade for the first time.

    I am long USU and short FSLR.

    I think renewables are total horse shit energy forms while the only thing going that worthwhile is nuclear if you want to cut down emissions.

    objective are first solar at 4.4 bucks and USU at 120.. in other words they trade places… 🙂

    Fuck renewable shit.

        hahahah..

        I think that wind and solar are so dilute that they have nothing going for them. The only time solar will work is when we can put panels in orbit and beam the energy down which is probably in a hundred years.

      Amazing, I actually agree with you on this one. Nuclear is the ONLY solution to our energy needs. All the other bullshit, including solar and wind are simply noise. I have a position in USU and plan on keeping it a long long time.

        I fess up, FiG. I put the trade on last time you talked about USU which then got me thinking about how useless solar is. Hence the trade.

        I also think that Obama’s $54 billion allocation to nuke is the green light to go forward an multiply these little fuckers. Being so regulated the original players earn the money as barriers to entry will be huge. It’s the winning trade as far as I’m concerned.
        Any target in mind.

          Honestly…. I have no idea how far that thing can run. I am planning on holding it for a year just to see what it does. I have a stop on the bottom end to avoid a loss with the possible reorganization of everything. This country is way behind the curve in nuclear power generation. Look at countries like France for where we are headed. Big oil and their friends the Clintons and Bush’s are no longer in power and Obama is going to push this issue very hard. I have no idea how long it is going to take for this country to go deep into nuclear energy, but I suspect that while we still have borrowing power, we will spend big money on the future.

            The world is going nuke Fig. There’s no other way to cut emissions. And you know what, after you get economic scaling that results in the price of plants falling drastically power output could end up being cheaper than coal fired plants.

            There’s an excellent scientist here in Australia with an good pedigree in environmentalism who runs a blog and he’s pushing nuke like crazy as the only way to go.

            Read this, written by an engineer on his blog and follow the comments by the author of the thread. It’s some of the best arguments I’ve yet seen for nuke. Australia at the moment is anti-nuke however you guys aren’t and the move there could be faster than thought.

            Yep. I know the world is going nuke. It has to. I know about the whole Australian nuclear fight. It’s a joke, and in the end, nuclear will be their solution as well. It has nothing to do with emissions either.

            This is the entire situation in a nutshell.

            Throughout the 1900’s The US and other industrialized nations made gigantic investments in fossil fuels. These investments take decades to pay off and the huge money investors/governments in this infrastructure will do WHATEVER it takes to ensure that their investments are safe. This includes going to war, enslaving populations, whatever it takes.

            What we are witnessing currently is the topping out of these investments. The end of fossil fuel investment and consumption and the beginning of the nuclear era. This change will not come without major disruptions and calamities.

            Cap and Trade, Global Warming, “Green” all those bullshit environmental mumbo jumbo bullshit terms mean nothing. The purpose of them is to change the public’s perception of nuclear as a clean alternative rather than as a dangerous method of power generation. It also will force corporations to move away from traditional energy sources, thus creating more demand for nuclear.

            So, you may ask, why do we need to go nuclear? There is plenty of oil still left to use. This is true, however, the world’s population is out of fucking control. Even with the massive world war that is coming, the world’s energy needs still won’t be able to be met with fossil fuels.

    Nuclear trade working today (thanks Oshamalamadingdong): USU +8%, CEG +2.75%, and GE +1.8%. USU pop gets it above the 150 DMA today ripping stops and making the 12% short interest think hard about the wisdom of their position. My upside price of $6.50 around the corner once the short covering kicks in full force.

    FCX up 2%+ – Fuck You FCX until you get back to 80; however, I do like the moves recently.

    GSK lagging a bit but inching its way up.
