At the close of trade today, I expect to see 10,000 (give or take) apologies emailed to me, from my many detractors aka men of low standing. For months, “The Fly” aka Senor Tropicana has been telling you “we’re going to 10,000.” The same person who brought you “DEATH TO ALL BANKS AND BROKERAGES” and “MAY ALL BEARS DIE SLOWLY,” now brings you “WE’RE GOING TO 10,500, ELSE I WILL SHOOT MYSELF IN THE FACE WITH A HOWITZER.”
There are many similarities between blogging and managing money. For example: most people want to manage money, but, later on, find themselves too stupid to make a living at it. Similarly, lots of people have blogs, but lack the creative fire or passion to make them special. As you know, all too well, Le Fly is a master in the arts of money management and blogging. Many people take wild swings at me, trying to take my crown; but every single one of them miss.
At this stage in the rally, I can only tell you what I am doing: I remain long, with 10% in cash reserves. Thus far, for the day, I sold out of my POSCO (ADR) [[PKX]] position, save a 1,000 share token position, and legged into a 5,000 share lot of Equinix, Inc. [[EQIX]] , north of $97.50.
My top positions include: Flotek Industries, Inc. [[FTK]] , TEKELEC [[TKLC]] , Corning Incorporated [[GLW]] , [[ENTR]] , General Cable Corporation [[BGC]] , Guess?, Inc. [[GES]] , Ceragon Networks Ltd. [[CRNT]] , ADTRAN, Inc. [[ADTN]] , DryShips Inc. [[DRYS]] , Sociedad Quimica y Minera (ADR) [[SQM]] , [[MWW]] , IAC/InterActiveCorp [[IACI]] , Align Technology, Inc. [[ALGN]] , Aracruz Celulose SA (ADR) [[ARA]] , Homex Development Corp. (ADR) [[HXM]] , Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd (ADR) [[TEVA]] , Vimpel-Communications (ADR) [[VIP]] , TriQuint Semiconductor [[TQNT]] , McMoRan Exploration Co. [[MMR]], [[CBD]] and Equinix, Inc. [[EQIX]] .
Now you look at those positions, boy, and tell me what type of day I am having.
