Not Done Going Higher

The metals are getting blown out today, especially my largest position CLF. The knee-jerk reaction would be to panic, shit your pants, then sell, while exlaiming “TIMBERRRRRR, we’re going lower.” However, I don’t think we’re done going higher yet.

The sell off in the metals is commonplace, following a ferocious run up. So, with my money, I will add to my CLF position and do so with the utmost honor, displaying both tenacity and gentlemanly behavior while doing so.

If you are looking for strength, go check tech. Names like SNDK, CIEN and QCOM are showing some decent resiliency.

At any rater, I have a long day ahead of me. Before I go, I will take about 5% of assets and deploy them into this sell off, putting my total cash percentage at 35%.

UPDATE: I added to my CLF position down here and started one in NVDA.

UPDATE II: I added to my CIEN position.

UPDATE III: I sold out of DE.

      Is that some rare form of comedy that I am (unfortunately) unaware of?

    PPT almost at overbought levels, do you need it to hit an extreme reading to consider it truly overbought?

      For me: Yes. A close of 3.10 or higher. However, that does not mean we can’t trade off a bit. It’s never a straight moonshot.

    ref to Johny Wang, above and “Gored”

    Some of you will recall that on July 8, 1947, a little over 60 years ago, witnesses claim that an unidentified flying object (UFO) with five aliens aboard crashed onto a sheep and mule ranch just outside Roswell, New Mexico . This is a well known incident that many say has long been covered up by the U.S. Air Force and other federal agencies and organizations.

    However, what you may NOT know is that in the month of April 1948, nine months after that historic day, the following people were born:

    Albert A. Gore, Jr..
    Hillary Rodham
    John F. Kerry
    William J. Clinton
    Howard Dean
    Nancy Pelosi
    Dianne Feinstein
    Charles E. Schumer
    Barbara Boxer

    See what happens when aliens breed with sheep and jackasses?
    I certainly hope this bit of information clears up a lot of things for you. It did for me.

    No wonder they support the bill to help illegal aliens
