Bears Taken to the WOODSHEDDER

You stupid fuckers need to understand something (pause); never bet against slow, grinding markets, on a “hot as fuck” Friday afternoon.

Closing out the week, “The Fly” sacked up large bags of cash, then proceeded to put them inside of his vaults. If you are interested in knowing what I am long; fuck off, I don’t have time for your requests.

While living the life of a champion, on occasion, the subject of “winship” is called into question. Let it be known, my winning ways go unparalleled north of the South Pole.

Off to drink myself stupid.

Respectfully, I Spit On You

You stick to your ideologies, while I rake in coin. A lot of you are hell bent on seeing some perverted version of world destruction, not to be confused with a clean version; and as a result, your house is in foreclosure due to pornographic stock market losses.

You bet against “The Fly,” and now you are homeless.

See folks, I hate the government just like the next guy. Nothing would warm my heart more than to see the White House going through a foreclosure proceeding. However, that shit is not going to happen, so why should I pine for it?

Once again, buying the [[ENTR]] dip proved to be chockful. Going with that theme, I hereby declare Ciena Corporation [[CIEN]] a dip buying opportunity.

Into the bell, “The Fly” will eat grandiose servings of mutton and drink from monstrous sized carafe’s, filled with sweet ambrosia.

Prepare For Friday Fuckery

The markets are down this morning, mainly due to profit taking. The reports out of Bank of America Corporation [[BAC]] , Citigroup Inc. [[C]] and General Electric Company [[GE]] were benign, which should lend some confidence to under-invested fund managers. I can tell you, knowing first hand, there are many money managers who have missed out on this run. Those clown-fuckers will be shining shoes for a living, unless they start putting their testicles on the line.

That’s right bozo, you need to risk having your balls cut off, in order to keep your jobs. Any takers?

With my money, I might buy the dip in [[ENTR]] . The stock is bizarre and insane; but, generally, it responds rather well on dips. Into strength, I will likely sell my entire [[ERX]] position, which I have a pretty sizable gain on. Remember, my goal is to adhere to a certain investment thesis. To do so, I need to reduce my exposure to certain sectors, oil and gas is one of them. Already, I am long Flotek Industries, Inc. [[FTK]] and SandRidge Energy Inc. [[SD]] . Keeping ERX is equal to taunting a professional boxer with bodily harm; eventually that fucker is going to punch my eyebrows off.

So, in summary, prepare for fuckery of the Friday variety. And, look to take profits, while buying dips. If you can figure that out than you will escape death and live forever, like Dracula sans the desire for warm blood.

Stocktwits TV is a Game Changer

Generally, I do not get excited over internet stuff, especially “stuff” that does not line my pockets with hideously ugly dead Presidents. But, if executed correctly, Uncle Howard will be a media God, while smashing jelly donuts in the faces of CNBC clown acts (Dennis Kneel [sic]).

I have given the Pina Colada sippers at Stocktwits my ideas and I hope they heed my sage advice. With God’s grace and a little luck, Stocktwits TV will be home to all of the popular youtube personalities, Stocktwits/iBankCoin/rest of blogosphere traders, turning some into goats, others into stars. The widget, which can be seen on iBankCoin’s homepage during trading hours, can be embedded on any site and will spread like wild fire, once the programming is kick-ass and becomes a real viable replacement or alternative to the clam-diggers at CNBC.

I loved the idea so much, I asked the hammock lovers at Stocktwits to allow iBankCoin be its first sponsor. Thankfully, they allowed me another avenue to express my twisted, yet creative, skills. As a result, Ragin Cajun, Jeremy and myself made a series of “slap-face funny” video ads. If you have a blog and want more readers, Stocktwits TV is the place where you need to spend ad dollars. If you are half-retarded and need help creating video ads, contact Ragin Cajun at matt504bt-at-gmail.com.

To sum up this post: Stocktwits TV is a game changer because people hate CNBC, are bored to death with Bloomberg and Fox, well, is just Fox. Furthermore, if you video blog and would like an opportunity to reach a larger audience, contact me at fly-at-iBankCoin.com; and I will put you in touch with the appropriate people.

Le Fly is Radiating

It’s called “glory through repetition.” While listless bloggers out there aka “my competition” espouse wrong-headed bearfucked positions, “The Fly” is owning this tape and the entire financial blogosphere, via mind-boggling accurate market calls. None of these fuckers can hold a candle to me. Like I said before, you need to throw water at Senor Tropicana’s feet when they get hot.

For the day, I raked coin, as if I was trading with a ski-mask on, partaking in a criminal venture. Through bold and fierce persistence, along with the blessings of the stock Gods, my gains outstripped yours. All I need now is for Flotek Industries, Inc. [[FTK]] to get going, then the table will be set for my feast. Until then, I will fight like a hungry ape trying to access an adjacent “banana farm”—just out of reach— protected by egregious high voltage electric fences.

You know my top picks; I am done here.

Viva Le Fly!

“Le Fly” just returned from a high speed moped adventure, accompanied by two baguettes. Skillfully, “Le Fly” took large bites out of one such said baguette, while simultaneously injuring people on the sidewalk nearby with the other loaf, via “bread slaps.” On occasion, “Le Fly” opens a bottle of Bordeaux, then pours the contents into a petit palais wine glass, all the while steering his little moped down narrow alleyways, for egregious and reckless consumption. Much to his chagrin, there are many “fat Americans” with stupid mustaches in NYC. This clouds his judgment and forces him to make rash decisions, such as throwing cheese at undercover police officers, running “the stupid red lights” (french accent accentuated) in Times Square or speeding through wooden police barriers.

As for the markets:

The little back and forth action is BULLISH for stocks. It means, lucky fuckers who were long yesterday are holding firm, like a week old baguette in an umbrella basket. In my opinion, it’s only a matter of time before the shorts get deposited into pine boxes. Keep a close eye on [[ERX]] or [[DUG]] . Should the market proceed higher, it will be led by the oil and gas space.

With my money, I might nibble at a little more ADTRAN, Inc. [[ADTN]] , Abercrombie & Fitch Co. [[ANF]] and STMicroelectronics N.V. (ADR) [[STM]] , providing they pull back a little. Also, I really like the action in [[UNG]] , but will refrain from buying more, until the hurricane season is upon us.

Finally, I am emphatic about Corning Incorporated [[GLW]] , OmniVision Technologies, Inc. [[OVTI]] , salesforce.com, inc. [[CRM]] and Ciena Corporation [[CIEN]] trading higher, all open positions from the man known best known by his French followers as “Le Fly.”

Squeeze Time

The country rubes from Congress are grilling Hank Paulson today, for doing all sorts of criminal shit, as if they were innocent angels hoodwinked by the devil himself. Those assholes on capitol hill would be sucking Hank’s dick right now, if everything went smoothly. The fact that unemployment is on the rise, giving their respective districts hot irons to the face, lends them the courage to make jackasses out of themselves, blaming Hank for everything short of faux global warming (incidentally, that can never be proved either). Congress knew exactly what they were getting into, when they gave Paulson the authority to spend like a drunken, credit card loving, American. Every single incumbent should be voted out, just my opinion.

As for the markets:

After yesterday’s salsa dancing extravaganza of a market, investors are taking a breather, allowing gains to be digested. However, remember, the shorts are trapped and will bug-the-fuck-out, should the indices show signs of lift off. With that in mind, I want to be long, or at least consider being long, stocks with bountiful short positions.

Courtesy of The PPT, here are 25 stocks with excellent technicals, from one my short squeeze screens, titled “Kill the Shorts”
