A. " I think that you've got to be
long here, despite the imminent monthly
jobs number."
um...yeah...youre correct...except you
can replace the comma above with one big
giantic period. The Fed (world
banks/govts) are practically holding a
gun to everyones head FORCING them to
take on risk (buy assets) - hands down
that trumpts any argument anywhere about
anything... Benanke made that very clear
weeks ago... yet the very obvious weekly
head fakes continues.
Who would want to fight the Fed here?
None of us retail folks should be
selling based on bogus scares (like ANY
bad numbers, Dubia, or any of the many
LAME reasons we've heard since August),
unless that selling is part of our plan.
I dont know why everyone is mincing
words (even Cramer, although today he
was a tiny bit more explicit). Just say
it!!! "There are absolutely no
reason to be afraid of the market,
people must escape falling currencies by
purchasing assests!!!"...which is
exactly what the Fed wants...when the
dust settles, JOBS WILL BE CREATED...at
least that appears to be the plan...The
Fed is at "DEFCON 1", an
election year is coming up...They are
forcing some stuff to be fixed here;
attacking from all sides; you will be
swashed trying to get in their way...at
least thats how I see right now (lol). I
do not know if things will work out for
them (Great Depression II?), but so far
theres nothing showing it will not. USA
rocks!!!
lol...I probably shouldnt be saying this
today; jinxing myself; because Im
expecting tomorrow is quiet or down (not
UP!!!!), so I can get grab some
goodies...I really shouldnt be
advertising how bogus it is...but yeah,
I cant really see anyone SERIOUSLY being
anti-long anywayz, so its not like
breaking news (lol).
To answer your question(s), my guess is
the numbers will be SPUN so that Friday
is a bad day ...just like the most of
the Fridays...lol...I am amazed that
such trickery works each week...but youd
better get ur shorts/inverses outta
there quick, cause you know what happens
next...same old story...even though I am
cant see this trickery working anymore
Fridays for the rest of the year.
Have Fun!
A. The only one I own : SLX,
too hard pick a winner out all of them

Jimmy, Jimmy, Jimmy, I watched thurs. show & the 10 mins. you spent on spar. you would have rathered have bamboo shoots under your nails than mention frpt. It's about making money not friends, right. Spar Rd. to glory is behind frpt & the billion $ contract thats about to come out & be doled out. It's clear that youdon't like someone or one's @ frpt. But I ask as a rabid fan & the wife. Please do not let your judgement get clouded with rage, been there, done that. I know you do so much for the little guys, I worked my butt off on this just like you taught me & I know I am right! Mention it this week & I will follow your wisdom. I could never thank you enough. A very loyal fan.YEH CRAMER & OH YEH, BOOAH YA, TOO YA.
