GLORIOUS MONSTROSITIES

Isn’t it odd that Goldman ups Southwestern Energy Company [[SWN]] to its “Conviction Buy List” going into April? Gee folks, I find it incredibly odd, considering SWN has been down one April out of the past 21. What does that mean?

Answer: we are in a perpetual loop, repeating the same events—mistakes and all—and we don’t even know it. I am sure the Goldman analyst had no idea SWN is 20 out of 21 in April, but felt compelled to upgrade anyway.  Or, perhaps an advanced race of aliens (not the sort that swims into America) are using our brains, via remote access, as some sort of sick/twisted science project. Maybe, just maybe, they are filming this stuff and broadcasting it back home—as a giant realty show.

Nevertheless, I feel compelled to ignore today’s rally. I am impressed with the Chicoms today, especially [[HEAT]] and [[SORL]] . And, I’ve been reading up on Mellanox Technologies, Ltd. [[MLNX]] and find myself fighting the urge to buy the stock, right here, right now. My current positions are doing great, particularly POSCO (ADR) [[PKX]] , ICICI Bank Limited (ADR) [[IBN]] and Adobe Systems Incorporated [[ADBE]] .

Natural gas is cheap as fuck. Write that down and remember to start nibbling at some natty stocks soon, prior to the summer hurricane bonanza begins!

    SKF may be the ticket now. A little more reasonable than FAZ.

    On a side note:

    How many times do I need to make you fucking dipshits look stupid? For years, you fucking imbeciles come here and give me shit, only to be made a jackass shortly thereafter. Naturally, you disappear when things go my way and go my way big. But seep back here, like a fucking bacteria, whenever things are in “transition phase” for me.

    You will be made to look stupid, ONCE AGAIN—as always.

    I am pretty sure that SWN is on the conviction buy list because God has sent a memo to GS about some nasty hurricanes this summer. Of course God owns some GS stock as a silent partner with Buffett.

    When the PPT seasonality tool is released, it will reveal the specs on the “perpetual loop”. Another win for The Fly. I hope it comes out soon.

    Have you set a date, Fly?

    I am still having strong effects in the NPAC and we’re almost at April. This does not portend to a good hurricane season in the Atlantic. In fact, if I continue to maintain influence the 2010 hurricane season could be even weaker than 2009.

    Take that motherfuckers

    NG is cheap, why do I want to buy it?

    PS- Maybe Goldman tells the public different shit from what they tell the big investors.

    My q1 was acceptable. My basic goal was to get out of my longs from early last year and the market has been very obliging. Its all kind of anticlimactic as I can only assume that march 09 to march 10 will be about as good as I ever do in 12 mos. Oh well, it was a doozy

    If you like MLNX—Please look at EZCH, they are located in the same town, but this one has a MUCH better story behind it — they are growing like a weed, are hoarding cash, very profitable and now selling to CSCO !!!
    The industry they are in is super hot —see ya in the 50’s
