The Santa Rally is Now

I don’t care to discuss gun control. Following the somber tragedy at Sandybrook, I’ve lost any semblance of hope that remained in the very depths of my psyche for this stupid, cocksucking country. If I said to you “it’s the meds that making people crazier today”, most would agree. But for what? No one will listen to what I am saying, nor you. The pharmaceutical industry will keep pushing these fucking drugs onto our children, for any reason at all, until parents WAKE THE FUCK UP and stop listening to these so called professionals.

I don’t mean to come off as a macabre by discussing my SWHC position and I won’t utter a word about it after this post. I feel it’s just bad taste. But we went back and did some research, correlating share price to these 2nd amendment moments– such as Aurora, Columbine, Virginia Tech etc, and without equivocation share prices rose. Seventy five percent of you believe we shouldn’t ban guns; but the topic will be talked about in Congress. This uncertainty will drive sales through the roof. It always does.

But that doesn’t mean we should do nothing as a society. If we’re not going to look into the dangers of psychotropics, at a minimum, households with mentally ill people in it should not be permitted to have firearms.

I’m bullish on stocks going into pagan Xmas, even though AAPL is enshrouded by bearshitters. I am going to take a very prosaic approach to this market and buy when there is blood at my feet and sell when it’s raining champagne corks. All of the noise surrounding the fiscal cliff and GDP, for the most part, is ceremonial. It won’t matter until it happens.

As of right now, the frivolities of America will be the dominant factor for trading this week. Do you really think people have taken an austere approach to their Kwanza shopping this year?

Who Do We Blame for the Connecticut Tragedy?

I Cannot Think of a Title For this Post

I deleted my previous post, after learning about the tragedy in Connecticut. I was out with my wife when the details of the story crossed my wires and I’ve been physically affected by it ever since. I do a lot of joking here, but this sort of event really gets me depressed.

Being a father of 3, knowing how precious the lives of children are, I am profoundly sincere when I say to anyone affected by the monster who hurt our most innocent, I am sorry.

I really don’t know what to think when I read news like this. How could anyone commit such a horrendous act, especially to those who cannot defend themselves and just want to believe in magic. Not only did this bastard kill and injure scores of teachers and children, he ruined the lives of hundreds, if not thousands.

I realize my stupid pistol investment went lower after the news hit–but I couldn’t care less. My problems are trivial when compared to the ones who have to deal with real loss.

Not to be long winded about it, but my family was disrupted as a child when my Father was killed by the bullet from a handgun. As much as people want to believe guns are the problem, that making them illegal will make everything better, they’re wrong. This country is diseased through an acute lack of morality and integrity. Everything about America has become rotten to the core. I am disgusted by this news, but also saddened for what it says about us.

Stop Hating on The Clam

Everywhere I turn people hate on the clam, mock him even, for implementing QE. People of a lower cloth think they know more than the good Dr., declaring in dismissive tones “the Fed is wasting their time with QE; the economy still sucks.” Immediately after making these statements, they eat whole bags of cheesed doodles and wash it down with pop of the soda.

Plainly and without reservation, you’re just an idiot. Who are you to question the heavy pimp hand of Benjamin Bernanke?

His job is to keep stock prices stable to higher, not create jobs–you fucking faggots.

Is it Bernanke’s fault when the dick-grabbers from Congress can’t balance a budget or effectively govern the economy?

No.

But ask yourself this question the next time you hate on the The Bearded Clam:

Where would the stock market be without QE and what type of debilitating deflationary effects would’ve gripped the economy by now without it?

The Bearded Clam knows all, an American hero of legendary proportions. The lot of you are merely citizens pushing pencils.

Fuck off.

NOTE: Major props to ChessnWine for killing an Apple short sale trade from yesterday inside 12631. Both Chess and RC absolutely killed it in 2012.

Congratulations to the Newly Elected Interim Tabbed Bloggers

Rhino ran away with the popular vote, trouncing “The People’s Blogger” MAXIMUS by 50 votes. But MAXIMUS did well on his own accord, coming out from obscurity to seizing more than 20% of the vote. Both Raul3 and Elizamae were neck and neck in a “too close to call” conundrum, so we held Special Elections.

As a result of said Special Elections, outright tomfoolery ensued, as both candidates went Tammany Hall on the vote–which resulted in wild and nonsensical swings, none that can be explained by conventional means, without the application of brazen corruptness.

Nevertheless, we are not here to investigate voter improprieties. We will leave that for the sexual deviants to sort out. We are here to crown a new tabbed blogger, one that will ENTERTAIN as well as EDUCATE the readership.

I give you RAUL3.

 

The easy part is finished. Now let’s see if any of you are good enough to stay here.  On March 13th of 2013, if your blog traffic is not sustaining the 3% threshold of overall site traffic, you will be fired. No hard feelings. Don’t ask for a reprieve. You will be let go to wander off into the dark, cold wilderness of The Blogger Network.

The Board of Directors at iBankCoin have mandated that its bloggers uphold the standards of what this site was built around, which is never to conform or settle for mediocrity. To accomplish this task, we are to work harder and smarter than everyone else. If you can do these things and communicate lucidly, the people will love you and embrace you as one of their own.

If not, it’s a set of steak knives of the shoe for your pathetic asses.

SPECIAL ELECTIONS: Elizamae versus Raul3

Voting will be continuous until midnight. Our first two of three interim tabbed bloggers have been elected; now you must decide on a third, since the previous election was ‘too close to call.’

ALERT: iBANKCOIN ELECTIONS ARE ‘TOO CLOSE TO CALL’

Amidst chatter of widespread voter suppression, due to roaming bandits and the Royal Praetorian Guard, “The Fly” has declared the election to be “too close to call” with regards to the 3rd and final spot–currently being fought for by ELIZAMAE and RAUL3.

At 7pm, the good folks from iBankCoin will hold special elections, a run off, between the two, in order to offer a ‘greater quality election’ to the people of iBankCoin.

As an aside, congrats to both Rhino and Maximus for seizing your spots. Let’s see if you’re good enough to hold them.

NOTE: The Special Elections will end at midnight.

What To Make of This?

The Federal Reserve intends to print money until the economy is healed, yet stocks trade down and gold/silver have plunged. There is an extreme sense of cynicism in the air, also fueled by the lack of progress on the Fiscal Cliff front. It is clear to any market participant that the help of the Fed has been the only thing holding this economy and stock market together.

You will hear voices in the wilderness, suggesting that “tax cuts don’t matter” because people are rich as fuck and the economy will do just fine. These people need to retake their econ 101 courses and learn that when you take money away from people, they spend less. Government is always the worst stewards of capital and they don’t really give a shit about stocks, except when collecting capital gains taxes.

In other words, they want to have their cakes and eat them too. This is a very delicate line to tow. My money is heavily biased long and I am at my lowest cash levels in a month, at around 15%.

Today’s market teaches us that nothing is guaranteed. We were supposed to rally yesterday and today, but instead we reversed and plunged lower.

That is the stock market and sometimes it’s a fucking bitch.
