FUCK — THE ANIMALS HAVE ESCAPED AND CRASHED THE MARKET

Of all days to crash the market. “The Fly” is out sauntering about NYC, enjoying the climate and the food — all the while wild roaming beasts crush the skulls of our robotic overlords.

I only have LABD, NUGT and lots of cash to hedge. I haven’t checked my quotes to see if I’m surviving the melee.

Is gold offering save harbor? Will Le Fly live to saunter in Paris this summer?

Please fill me in in the comments section, as I am no longer able continue this communication.

    While talking about how the Iran deal is the worst deal in history, Trump’s affirmed his fealty …to Netanyahu …and to the neocon plan for the big war …with Iran:

    “They’re not going to be restarting anything. If they restart it, they’re going to have big problems, bigger than they ever had before. And you can mark it down,” the US president said.

      Everytime with you ferd. Why does everyone picture Bernie Sanders when you freak out again. Crusty old commie out of touch with the new reality. It is rhetoric.

        Yeah, crazy rhetoric. And it’s good trading to fade crazy rhetoric ….except when it comes to the mid-east. In that particular region, you should not fade crazy because DC is occupied by AIPAC. Anyway, congrats on your most lucid post to date. Stay on the new meds.

    Also, here’s a rule of thumb about voaltility, just divide by 7 (?52 weeks) to calculate the expected weekly move. So if VIX is 10, that means a “normal” move is ±1.5%, and a VIX of 21 means you should expect a weekly move of ±3%.

    Daily move, divide by 16 (?252 days)

    You have been fed scurrilous lies, Mr. Fly. It is a peaceful and plentiful day in the markets. Why, I’m looking out my window right now, and do not see any crazed wildebeests or rampaging giraffes. As you were. Enjoy your day in the city.

    Libor just keeps marching higher. And lord rothchild declared US will have higher rates.

    Miners suck ass, when oil is high. But gold spot will rip higher now that the central bank gold shuffle is done.

    Now the pros are looking at the 30-year yield. We are likely going to see the 3.25% print in the coming days.

    The question is, will that be the top for at least some weeks? If not, bigger crashes a la those of early February shall recur.
