I missed this two week correction, holding stocks like a true permabull. While it’s true, there were numerous signs out there, telling me to protect myself, I chose to ignore them and “stay the course.” While many of you 4 figure accounters out there will claim victory of some sort, while throwing meatloaf at the people who are long, just know you are nothing more than fodder for my backyard cannons.
For those of you who were hurt this week, don’t let it mess with your confidence. You lost money, big fucking deal. You took a shot, believing the Fed would splash some magic dust on the market, like they have done over and over again, for the past three years. The high probability play was to buy the dip and it failed. Here we are, down for 6 consecutive weeks, and people are clamoring for some sort of surprise crash.
That sort of shit is not supposed to happen, following a horrendous crash in ’08. In other words, while anything is possible, it’s a very low probability play. We haven’t seen this type of “broken elevator” action since 2002, when the world as we knew it was fucked. Well, I guess one could make an argument that the world is worse off now. However, all of the facts available to us now have been known for sometime, sans that barbaric +54k jobs number.
We are not used to market corrections, since we’ve been spoiled by cheap money for so long. Ladies and idiots, this is a correction, nothing more, nothing less. We could drop 10% from the highs, or even 20%. That does not mean we are in a bear market. On the brains of Santa Claus, shut the fuck up already. No one cares about your opinions. Do you think your comments affect my decision making? Moreover, do you have a monopoly on market strategy? If so, I suggest you take your billion dollar skills to a hedge fund attorney and set up shop.
When you come to iBankCoin, specifically my blog, come dressed to impress and do not behave like an unwashed working class animal. Feel free to talk amongst each other and never disrespect the host. It is simply rude, unbecoming, and will not be tolerated as long the “The Fly” rules this domain.
Feel free to drink excessively, eat like a caveman, and forget about stocks for a few days. See you fuckers on Monday.
