Crashing With Honour

“The Fly” is in his office, decked out in formal evening wear (top hat, tuxedo, white pocket square), awaiting the great crash of 2010. Although the great crash is widely expected, very few are prepared like Senor Tropicana aka “The Fly”, with office decor and delectable HORS D’OEUVRES to match. The office, as you would imagine, is filled with black smoke, which is completely non-toxic and 100% organic (I bought it from whole foods). The music is playing and everyone is busy doing “The Hugh Hendry“, not so much different than a Peanuts party, where Snoopy and the gang get down and boogie, zombie style.

What you need to know, every so quickly: I am preparing to supplant you as a shareholder in numerous stocks. Once you’ve been dispatched, by way of margin liquidation, “The Fly” will step in, with the veracity of a mountain lion inside the headquarters of Stocktwits, and buy said shares at horrendous discounts.

You may be wondering: if the Euro is up, why is the market down?

Answer: it is the destiny of the markets to go lower. There is nothing that you or your stupid friends can do about it.

In closing, I am not thrilled to make money, while most of you waste away into oblivion. It’s just my job, gentlemen— so sorry you aren’t me.

      They are impaling themselves on pool Q’s after triple leveraging long oil related names on “the dip”.

      Would you all care to clean the blood off and begin a gentlemen’s game of 9 ball, as we watch the crash?

    I’m a terrible investor! I’m not worthy! Faz to make up my horrendous losses sounds like suicide, but here i go, scrambling up the tilted ship, hoping to avoid corpulent morons as they free fall into that icy water.

    Have you travelled to October 2010 yet? If so, did we test the 2008 lows when you were there? Or is this elevator going straight to “0”? What’s top on your buy list? I’d like to pick up some copper on the cheap, since apparently 2/3rds of the planet’s copper has already been mined, but since SCCO went to $7 the last time, and is currently in the mid-$20s, I have no idea what price to pick it up at. Gold, in my opinnion is overrated, so is oil. Now’s the time to think of sectors to grab when we crash, but what would those be? Any insights?

    Fly,

    How far back did you test (if at all) the PPT 2.20 oversold vs. 3.0 overbought concept? Did you ever publish how often it was successful in predicting/alerting investors to general areas of reversal? All just curiosity, from reading the site I’ve seen it call reversal areas very well thus far.

    Thanks

    Can you tell me if the world is coming to an end?

    Also, will there be a resumption of my daily 40 points in the very near future?

    Thank you

    Margin calls already an issue in my office today, before this decline. If we close down again, it will only be worse. Many of these will be Fed calls. Been awhile since I saw this many.

    we kinda need a rally attempt around this level so was can get a bigger slap down….btw is there any way to blog in the Peanut Gallery besides paying for PPT? I know PPT is great but like a student learning Math, I don’t want to see the answers, I want to learn on my own the method first…

    Still impressed, flyus maximus, with ur handling and calling of this.

    Got long tck, gs, and good via leaps in small quantities. And some atpg. Still mostly sitting. Bought back nearly all short calls, had a red bull and some coffee and am prepared to remove my pants.

    There are very encouraging signs here in the positive direction.
    OE makes it hard to predict, but crash would surprise me, especially after this week.
    We’re going up.
