Everything is Flat — But Investors Clamour for MOAR

It’s all a fun game — isn’t it? End of days apocalyptic breakdowns followed by effervescent shifts in the winds that blows everything up, brightly and wonderfully, without pause or rationale — even the faintest idea of meaningful explanation.

Stocks go up because they do. People still buy GM cars, and clamor for their SUVs — because they do.

“Top News”, morons from CNBC

In a country with price per square foot real estate presently fetching $2,000, it’s hard to imagine anything but gains. There is a feverish appetite for more and the savages on Wall Street are disinterested in your bearish commentary — anything to do with leverage loans or student loans is idle trash to be discarded or not even looked at. Zerohedge is a comedy website with authors who lampoon themselves blogging drunk and without meaning. A joke.

Today oil is up — but oil stocks are down. Makes no sense, so I don’t think about it. We do not like to think about what’s uncomfortable and painful and would prefer to just celebrate the wins — trade wars and profits — the ascendency of mankind over the reprobates — America the all powerful — an empire built upon the bedrock of civility and human interest will fucking bomb your culture into oblivion and then take your resources to fuel our growth and fund our pensions for the next 100 years. Henceforth, anyone even thinking about shorting stocks, let alone actually doing it, should be drawn and quartered — their limbs ripped from their bodies and their heads used to play soccer at the next Bilderberg meeting.

That got very dark, very fast. My apologies.

Buy the dip.
