Gartman Does It Again: 30Y Tops 3.00%, Stocks Surge After "Bad News"

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Oops, he did it again... Gartman: Sell Stocks, Buy Bonds

 

And this morning's terrible array of data was just what the doctor ordered to send stocks higher and bonds lower (because you sell stocks on recession-inspiring data because there is no safety bid)...

 

With USDJPY at 120.00 and Europe closing - we wonder how long this algo stop-run to yesterday's highs in stocks will last?

But in the modern world of investing based on central planners, bad news is actually great news. If the economy is slowing then you can count on government intervention including the Fed playing monetary games.

Recesssion data can be bullish for stocks.

Yes, with the FED using the stock market as another monetary tool all bets are off.  The Gartman indicator was 100% correct when he called the breakout of the pennant would be to the downside.  Up we go.

The Gartman indicator means do the inverse of what he says.

That was clearly a bullish pennant, the upside angle was much steeper. Gartman is clueless.

Especially in a world where earnings don't matter and good news is good one day and bad the next.  There is nothing else unless you count Gartman's dart board.

Gartman is the only fundemental indicator we can count on.  If we could get him to project technicals, a la Yamada,

then we could invert the projection and implement a strategy.  Visions of tropical drinks, beaches, and chicks dance through my head.

I'd love to see the amount of trading commision Gartman has paid in his Virtual Portfolio, hes like an HFT in the wrong direciton.

Not that I care one way or another, but why does ZH have such a hard on for Gartman?

I see nothing suggesting ZH disagrees with Gartman and seriously advocates going long

It takes two to make a market

With so few participants remaining, Gartman is left no choice but to publicly play with himself

I knew a 14 year old girl who won a stick picking contest by only buying all the most expensive stocks she could find.  Her logic makes more sense than Gartman's.  And she was successful.

BTW, take another tip from Gartman

Speaking with fingertips pressed together makes you look intelligent

Much like Ben Kingsley's Character of Trevor Slattery in Iron Man 3, Gartman is just an actor playing a part.

 

Trevor Slattery: Ah, well, I had a little problem with... substances, and I, uh, ended up doing things, no two ways about it, in the street, that a man shouldn't do...

 why does ZH have such a hard on for Gartman?

 

The reason is that Gartman has been giving his recommendations in Euro and Yen terms only and selfishly completely keeping his analysis of the Thai Baht and Vietnam Dong to himself.  If he only opened up to let everyone know what he recommends in terms of the Baht and Dong, ZH would go easier on him.

I love Gartman. He said short stocks through FOMC as well, guess we know what that means.
