Gartman Unfazed By Suggestion He "Should Go Have Sexual Relations With" Himself
Did Gartmant just jinx yesterday's selloff? You decide, from his morning note:
Finally, this is the time for retaining what liquidity we can muster; this is not a time for courage. Get smaller; get liquid and get safe. Things turned ugly yesterday and today we fear is but a brief respite.
And then there is this, following Gartman's latest 24 hour "bullish oil" flip flop on oil:
In retrospect we should have been slower in turning from an overtly bearish posture on crude oil to one that was bullish, and even more properly we probably should have put our bullish posture into effect using options rather than a direct futures position. We shall consider that in the future. Certainly it would have been less “harmful.”
Having been bearish of crude oil for a very long while, it is time no longer to be bearish, but perhaps we were indeed a bit too early in turning bullish. Better, in hindsight, it would have been to have been on the sidelines following Friday’s weakness in the capital markets, knowing that Monday would be a disaster. Lessons are always being learned.
But others took us to task a great deal more disconcertingly, calling upon us to close our business; to take up another vocation; to stop making “calls” and as one “pundit” rather comically suggested we should go have sexual relations with our self. But we know of no other perspective to take but to admit our mistakes when they happen, even if they are created by outside, short term agencies over which we have no control and which develop out of the thinnest of short term air. We have no choice but to live to fight another day and the chaos of yesterday forced that down hard upon us.
But why on earth should Gartman close business? He provides what are arguably the best market calls in history - as long as one does the opposite, of course - plus he is funny.

Someone needs to do an animated Clutch Cargo version of Gartman and have it on CNBC. THEN I may consider watching.
The worst thing that can happen in the markets right now is a big rally

He's still no Tom Stolper. That guy was so consistently wrong I think his batting average was literally zero. His awesome contrarian performances gave rise to the term "Stolpered out."
Now, if we start hearing the term "Gartmaned out" on a regular basis I might reevaluate my position on this matter.
For now, I am merely pleasantly short three units of Dennis Gartman in USD terms.
Let´s award the "Order of the Gartman". Tho those who "have served the Sovereign personally".

CLUTCH CARGO!!?
Holy shit is that a blast from the past dude.
What was the other one like that?
Space Angel?
Gartman is just a visible tool in a kingdom of devoted tools.
Proceed accordingly.
Gartman should trade opposite of his calls. If every impulse you have is wrong, then the opposite must be right... George Costanza.
Does he even know how to do that?
He may have tried several times but couldn't figure it out, which is why he found the suggestion 'comic.'
Mr. Gartman. Please go f..k yourself.
Stupid lightweight, who can't take an ad hominem pasting.
Clutch Cargo and his pal Spinner, very appropriate.
Who plays Spinner.
Kernan.
Who is this guy and why is he always featured on ZH?
comic relief
What a douche...
He's got that face to do just that.
When he speaks is that the royal "We"?
...the Royal Wee, into the wind.
My name is Adam Weee...

Priceless that was hilarious
Let's take a minute to reflect on the success rate of the calls made on ZH.
Yea, exactly.
There's a difference between reporting news with a contrarian perspective and being paid as a TV pundit but knowingly delivering nothing but propaganda and misinformation.
There's just no comparison here, not even close.
Gartman is most definitely not "ha-ha" funny.....
Gartman is haha funny in an 'angry cat' sort of way. Anyway all that aside he is certainly a national treasure.
Gartman choking to death on Caitlyn's dick, on the other hand...
Gartman is Cousin Eddie from xmas vacation...only difference is Eddie is smarter
I'd listen to Bill Gross instead of Gartman.
Bond traders are more long term in their thinking.
bearded men are called "face-pussies" in proletarian parts of germany.
there is a reason for that wording.
He should go full Costanza.
" I just got out of the pool!"
"It was cold!"
Why would anyone suggest that Gartman take up another vocation?
He's already a perfect douche bag.
Dont change, Dennis, we loathe you just the way you are.
(h/t Billy Joel)
There will be a rally. Too many sheeple short not to be sheared.....rinse and repeat
Financial advisors like him are not there to make the people wealthy. They are there to influence the maket to help others get wealthy. Just like the "financial advisors" at my bank.
absolutely classic. spot on.
You know you have to start asking why Gartman even deserves time here?... He averages only at most 30 to 40 comment(s) on ZH
Then you understand the level of respect the man gets with suggestions and statements by the press like this one!
Somebody needs to coin him as the "Rodney Dangerfield" to his profession!!!
It appears, in retrospective hindsight, and to our detriment we dillied when we should hve dallied......forthwith we shall be long of mumbo and short of jumbo.
Dear Mr. Gartman:
go fuck yourself
A ZH Pundit
Gartman buys the top, yet again: http://www.cnbc.com/2015/07/17/dennis-gartman-stock-market-bull-run.html
Sadly, the only time they don't fuck up is the times they do try hardest to fuck themselves.
So who's the pundit who said that?
He is in fact a genius.
When you’re one step ahead of the crowd you’re a genius. When you’re two steps ahead, you’re a crackpot.

When it comes to progniostication, Gartman is the Ralph Nader of Love. The harder he tries, the worse he makes it.
Can someone create a Gartman Index.... aka the Idiot Index
To be fair to Gartman he did call the market correction a week ago.
