We are OFF the fucking lows and people aren’t happy. Down 450 by 10am and now +80 and doom is cast all around me. I got myself long a varietal of assortments and have zero interest in shorting anything here, into what we will soon learn is a GREATER DEPRESSION.
I cannot reconcile it and I cannot fathom what is taking place. Like you, I am in the dark; but I unlike you — I will not fold or bend. Markets like this were built for me, poise under fire, fire under the house — drinking coffee amidst the cinders.
Do not fear anything, for life is eternal. Do what you can to make the time easier and place yourself, best you can, in a position to win.
If we are talking stocks, your best god damned chance is with me, vis a vis Exodus.
Virus stocks are the rage. I am lukewarm on just about everything else, but have positions on now betting for a bounce tomorrow. If I get one today, I will consider it to be gravy.

Respectfully disagree. The market is merely being kind to those who failed to get short over the past week.
Sector rotation to the short side. Today”s biotech’s turn.
“Nobody really cares at this point about the data or how weak it is because they simply attribute it all to the coronavirus. It’s a self-inflicted wound. Forgetting about the fact that we were actually wounded anyway. People don’t appreciate the problems that the US economy had – the very deep-seated structural problems that lay beneath that bubble that people still haven’t come to terms with. They’re still focusing on the effects of the coronavirus and not realizing that the economy was very sick long before we got infected with the coronavirus.””

Musk-eteers are fianlly realizing what I’ve been saying for a few months now:
“Elon Is An Arrogant Ass”

*Elon has been
Is that what he *has been* known for? Cockiness can be comfortably and tolerably obnoxious.
I disagree with his mafia tactics to make his workforce get back to his car plantation though.
*Isn’t
I need some sleep apparently.
Plantation? …Jeeeeez narcist. Are you actually a 400 pound Klansman posting from the bed into which he was forklifted …attempting to gin up crackas against their black neighbors?
Narcist has already admitted to being banned multiple times and just coming back using new different accounts. They are usually easy to pick out. I do feel sorry for people creating fake accounts to add basically nothing but gin up fake racism like richardweiner and my pillowguy just to name a few recently.
Richard and purdy are Fly’s alts you dumb fuck. What’s my pillow guy?
Drink less, Fly. I get that COVID living isn’t easy but “plantation” doesn’t gin up (pun intended) anything.
Plantation is also the name of a real Florida city.
he doesn’t drink
From screaming buy to selectively shortable in 6 hours.
This is by far the best “rigged” market for the adroit traders.
Fucking markets are schizophrenic. I’m glad you mention being “in the dark”. The economic news is terrifying yet we rocket higher. WTF? Someone explain the mechanics of this. How in the actual fuck does a market spring board higher from down nearly 2% to finish up 1.25%?
Fed is buying select ETF’s to float this pig. Be nimble or get your nuts cut off. It’s that simple.
Powell buying HYG at exactly the $78 resistance/support. This is the next level of jawboning, actually buying it. They buy enough to spark the markets into thinking its all clear and they start a rally / short squeeze. They’ll do this until fundamentals clear up or covid solutions come out. They’re buying time, literally. Gundlach will cover far sooner than most think.
There is a chance, higher than most think, that we can spend our way out of this. Expensive? Hell yes, but cheaper than a crash. Powell has that much right.
However- a half hearted attempt will mean failure; we’re in way too deep.
Are the voters smart enough to figure this out? Is our leadership capable of managing the response to the recession?
The easiest way to tell is this: if it doesn’t sound like the biggest fuckload of money you ever imagined, it’s not enough.
I should have mentioned that what we’ve spent plus another 3t is a good start.
It’s not really that good of a chance. Our debt-to-gdp is already north of 100%. If we double it trying to deal with this one problem then the US government is in deep trouble. In the long run, it’s actually better to just let capitalism work. I’m sure we’ll spend more but nowhere near the levels you’d want, and higher taxes are on the horizon.
And no – before someone feels the need to post “we’ll just print!” – we aren’t going to just print the money. It’s not like we don’t have a field of great examples that this doesn’t work. Japan is the best look, Venezuela is the worst look, and nothing we want lies between.
Fiscal response is the key.
I agree that either choice is risky. Pick your poison.
Success and failure depends on the time scale you are looking at.
Stimulus is always bullish in the short term
John Maynard Keynes used to say nigger in casual conversation. As in, niggers sure are charming. I am now going to say nigger in conversation in a non-hateful way to honor the memory of Lord Keynes.
Best of luck niggers.
Go back to your woodpile.
Hi nigger. I don’t actually know what that means.
Can you help a nigger out and explain?
I believe once fly said his wife was black. Even though banning are banned, this stupidity should do it for you
I’ll bet she is a charming nigger as Lord Keynes would say. After all, as Lord Keynes said “Niggers are the only sympathetic and original thing in America.” https://www.nationalreview.com/magazine/2013/06/03/long-run-silence/
Although he also said, “It is not agreeable to see civilization so under the ugly thumbs of its impure Jews who have all the money and the power and brains” https://www.econjobrumors.com/topic/john-maynard-keynes-on-repulsive-impure-ugly-jews As a Jewish supremacist, I do not approve of that at all.
In an ideal world, the brokers recommending buys and raising price targets on stocks when no guidance has been provided in months should be held accountable for dereliction of duty.
But we don’t live in an ideal world, so BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRrrr
I’m starting to understand the mindset of the moron goldbug whack jobs now.
Gold is a barbarous relic that only belongs on the chains and watches of niggers.
As an aside, notice there are two BBC (big black cock) links to the right. The Fly sure does love that nigger doesn’t he?
let me take a wild-ass guess at your formative years environment — a toxic heap of white trash, perhaps?
prove me wrong
I’m guessing he’s a jaded prep school kid who ran a short lived counter-service and hates the Fly for enduring this long so he’s trying to make the board toxic just to drive away readers.
