This Time, Charlie Throws His Meatballs at the Bulls
February 29, 2008 – 7:13 am
Apparently, the [[ABK]] “deal” has hit a “snag,” according to CNBC’s Gasparino.
In other news, with futures down nicely this morning, it appears “The Fly” is well on his way to advancing to round two of the Final Four Mad Stocks Contest.
Did any of you really think I’d lose?
Developing…
errr, yep
February 29th, 2008 at 7:14 amNot in the long term I didn’t. But I had no idea that this was a “week to week” type deal… I thought it was six weeks and we see who did best… In that sense, you got real lucky as Mother Market could’ve waited til Monday to laser beam WaMu.
Cajie’s gotta get those instructions out in a better form next time… (I might’ve picked SLW instead)…
Sour grapes, I know…
February 29th, 2008 at 7:19 amEach week, the stock selection (performance) resets. But, you have to stick with the same stock.
You had the right idea, wrong industry.
WNR knee capped you.
In other words, you’ve been knee capped by a WNR.
Nice way to go out, bucko.
February 29th, 2008 at 7:22 amAnyone notice what WaMU and some of the others are pushing these days via the slimy ads of CNBC?
Can you believe… reverse mortgages to wrinklies?
In a downtrending housing market??
February 29th, 2008 at 7:27 amSort of like the way I got out in the real tournament every year…
Early.

Speaking of “the real Tournament” — KC’s lily white Catlick boys and their Magilla Gorilla (40 pts!) center Hargody did not have enough firepower to take on the Pitino-birds!
Not at home, anyway.
February 29th, 2008 at 7:32 amI’ve been hearing a lot of chat from random people about how much money they “could have” made buying the open and selling the close - as if this requires no knowledge to make money.
I wonder if the “buy at the open / sell at the close” trade is going to burn a lot of people today?
February 29th, 2008 at 7:36 amI’m selling a bounce and going short via SDS, QID, DOG etc..
February 29th, 2008 at 7:37 amBAC finally broke
Always look on the short side of life
February 29th, 2008 at 7:39 ambe careful shorts…just another friendly warning
February 29th, 2008 at 7:58 am2 more weeks
February 29th, 2008 at 7:59 amWarning is back. He called a good one last time. Let’s see if he does it again.

Down like an elevator up like steps. Fly steaks this weekend ?
February 29th, 2008 at 8:00 amWarning:

February 29th, 2008 at 8:10 amSomething strange… QQQQ is down more then QLD?

February 29th, 2008 at 8:15 am“Warning” is just telling us that in “two more weeks,” the NCAA Basketball Tournament is coming up.
“Warning” would like to reserve Valpraiso State, if no one else is taking them.

Aside: Fly — was the site just down temporarily? Wouldn’t load for about five minutes there…

Whats in two weeks is already priced into the market. The Fed cannot be trusted during an election year. Charts and history won’t work!
February 29th, 2008 at 8:20 amThis probably won’t come out on the image specified, because it’s a “slide show” site, but make sure you check out the seventeenth picture… I like to call it: “The Lizard King Contemplates Jail Time.
February 29th, 2008 at 8:21 amWhat’s with the meatball jokes? Of course, I love meatballs. Meatballs are fucking delicious….. and high in protein.
February 29th, 2008 at 8:26 amFly - I would like to formally send you an appropriation request for more bandwidth to make this blog hyper-isdn speed.
February 29th, 2008 at 8:27 amfslr up.. why? calvino sell two shares..
February 29th, 2008 at 8:28 am2 Events are coming…not if, but when…1) rate cut and 2) AMBAC/MBIA bailout…be careful with your hard earned profit in SKF…
February 29th, 2008 at 8:45 amYou hedged those shorts the day before yesterday at the market top. wow a contrarian pro.

February 29th, 2008 at 8:56 amHere come the rally bounce attmept, douchebags hitting the yen.
February 29th, 2008 at 9:27 amNoFlyZone:
If we know that the Fed is going to cut rates and we know AMBAC is getting a bailout, wouldn’t that be priced into the market today?
February 29th, 2008 at 9:37 amThis is a special request for ‘The Fly’
Please…Please don’t post any headline such as “QUICK ALERT BULLS:YOU’RE DEAD” or anything to that extent. I’m having a great day banking coin on SRS and SKF and the last thing I want is a day like last Friday where I felt as helpless as a Kurd inhaling Saddams nerve gas.

Speaking of which, it looks like the Iraqi Supreme Court (the Prime Minister’s uncle, Maleek, and his seven goat-herd brothers-in-law) has okayed the official “hanging until well dead” of Chemical Ali.
“and there was much rejoicing.”
February 29th, 2008 at 9:45 amThis looks like your typical mortgage broker asshat website/ad, doesn’t it?
Checkout the “DBA” in the fine print at the bottom.
February 29th, 2008 at 9:47 amMarty, good call on the disposition of those misbegotten tampon shoes yesterdaay in the AH.
update 2.. Tuco - Punk Z bitch just lowered your favorite stock to 65 from 71.
update.. fueling up the ‘Flying Fortresses ‘ on our forward base in Guam. Pray for your crew boys, espescially the tail gunner.
February 29th, 2008 at 9:50 amWarning- if you had anything real, you’d tell us.
And if you really had anything, you’d tell us what the employment situation will be next week.
February 29th, 2008 at 10:05 amSome of the small regional banks holding there own. Gotta say something positive.
Having a full glass of Palm Oil for an energy boost.
February 29th, 2008 at 10:07 amDBA getting crushed… HOC only wrist-slapped… Jake not dead yet!
Just “near death.”

“Nevertheless, Mrs. Obama urged them to foreswear lucrative professions like corporate law or hedge fund management and go into the helping industry, even if the sacrifice is great.”
I agree, hedge fund managers are lazy man’s work. Same with lawyers. These fucks sleep in until 8 everyday and then only work until 3 in the afternoon. They don’t work half as hard as a 7:30am - 2:30pm Union guy. Goat fuckers.
February 29th, 2008 at 10:18 amMeanwhile, “Mrs. Obama” is pulling down $300k as a healthcare administration bigwig.
WTF?
How they hell does she expect anyone to pay the taxes in her socialist utopia?
February 29th, 2008 at 10:24 amJake- Don’t fret. She is VP for community affairs and she is “helping people.” Oh, by they way they doubled her salary about the time Obama got elected. Now thats change.
February 29th, 2008 at 10:34 amThat’s the kinda “Change” I’m looking for. More than “loose” in other words…
