Oh no, the market is shitting the bed again. What-am-I-going-to-do?
Soon enough, the bearshitters will be out in force, racing up and down Wall in their FAZmobiles. As for me, I am full of regrets this morning. I regret selling Aruba Networks, Inc. [[ARUN]] , OmniVision Technologies, Inc. [[OVTI]] , Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [[AMD]] and TriQuint Semiconductor [[TQNT]] too soon. If only, and I mean this sincerely, the market pulled back 10%, I would be able to buy some good companies—at a discount. However, something tells me, that will not occur.
Instead, the market is going to squeeze itself higher, for the duration of 2009. If you are in the business of trading stocks, 2009 should be the year that you clean house. This is the banner year that you will brag to your Grankids about.
With that in mind, stop shorting stocks, you fucking morons.
Many of you are poking your faces in American International Group, Inc. [[AIG]] , going short. Don’t you realize, AIG could print $100 easy—and still be considered “cheap”? We are in the midst of the biggest short squeeze of all time. Brokerage houses are banning inverse ETF’s and the regulators frown upon people who bet against stocks. Due to our fucked status, as a weakened financial super power, the powers that be (they) are giving it the ol’ college try, in a sincere attempt to put us back on top, via MASSIVE reflation.
Getting in the way of that is not bravery, but madness.
On a slow Friday afternoon, I like [[ENTR]] , General Cable Corporation [[BGC]] , Barnes & Noble, Inc. [[BKS]] , Tesoro Corporation [[TSO]] and TerreStar Corporation [[TSTR]] right here, right now.
