Gartman Covers His Treasury Shorts

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Yesterday, when we commented on the latest whiplash of yet another record batch of Treasury short we had one simple comment:

And, sure enough, here comes the most whiplashish crash test dummy of them all:

Monday, June 22nd… we sold the long end of the US bond market and recommended doing so either by selling the bond future and buying the Ten year note… the bearish spread in the bond market… or by selling the Ten year note future alone. We’ll use the Ten year as our guide and we had every opportunity to sell it at or near to 126 ¼.

 

However, because of the flight to safety, the long end if flying to the upside and it is wisest to head to the sidelines and we can do so with a small profit taken. We’ll do so… immediately.

To be followed, logically, moments ago by:

  • UST 10Y YIELD PARES DROP, TOUCHES SESSION HIGH 2.382%

Because the humor must go on.

How does this man fail so badly, so publically at his job and still have it unless that IS his job?

A couple months back when the 10yr got down under 1.65% briefly, I made a steak dinner bet that the 10yr would touch or go below 1.50% by Sept 1st.  Fucking Bernyellen ... #dontfightthefed

When confronted with a jester it is important to remember that it matters very little if you like him or not. The jester is there to entertain only one person, the regent.

Blankfein must think this guy is fucking hilarious.

Because in a sane and logical world, people would be lining up with nail guns in the hope of delivering the kill shot.

Unfortunately we no longer live in a sane world.

In my continuous effort to be absolutely contrarian to this dyed-in-the-wool shill, I have added to my treasury shorts, specifically the 10-yr (C'mon 3%!).
