What Happens Next?

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Credit Schmedit...

Investment Grade, High Yield corporate bonds are weaker... Stocks aren't...

 

And VIX ain't buying it...

 

And it's everything! Not just energy...

 

So which makes more sense to you? A 400 point rip in The Dow on absolutely nothing or continued weakness in credit markets reflecting growth concerns and liquidity constraints?

You know what happens in a down market, you see prices drop from where they were and you scratch your head thinking it's a good deal (relative only to what it was a month ago). But then you zoom out, and realize oh shit, there's more to go. You let off the buy button and it gets worse and worse. And then you read an article about how the Swiss NB may even default. And then you buy everything in sight. Until you see that article, sit tight.

I do a cost average buy in...  You can never really call the bottom, so I just continue to buy, and buy ...and then I buy again.  What I really like is that it is safe.  Safe from the paper photo copy machine.  When a currency crisis happens like it is in Canada, or Australia...the metals hold their value.  For some reaon...1 oz of Silver just feels better than 15 federal reserve notes...that is just me.

In my opinion, you have a good grand kid strategy.

If you don't need quick liquid assets, don't buy quick (soon to be sold at a loss, if at all) assets.

Squid told the muppets there's 11% upside after an ' emotional selloff '.

  Yup ... rumor and propaganda right on schedule.

You're not the only one. But just remember that the zombie meme that has been so popular is satisfying the part of the public's unconscious that knows we're all being turned into zombies by our fascist overlords. In the land of the zombies the human beings are outcasts.

<clearing throat>

...NOTHING MAKES "SENSE" ANYMORE....................................NOTHING.

I think you have to come up with a new criteria for the word "sense" if you want to apply it to ANY sector of the "markets" a.k.a. rigged casino of effluvia

Simply a shadow of a whisper of a guess about reversal on the hike scheme is good for 300 pts...what is isn't good for is chaning any of the awful data points that are getting worse by the day.

Clearly the psychology as to manipulating the market is well known...punch it hard in the mouth at the open and freeze all the sellers for at least a short time allows the nibblers to come in and help the cause during the day.  Well done whoever you are...let's see you do it every day for the next 3 months...

Right, if none of the actual real-world metrics matter for crap, then why bother reporting on them...let the Fed react only to the market conditions and be done with it...would make for a much briefer Fed statement....ie. The market was up so things are good in every region of the country and rates therefore will be left unchanged.

THe sad thing is there has been a 20%+ decline in stocks and the meme on the street and on the TV has been the country has never been stronger...buy buy buy...at least another 30-40% decline coming which apparently will be a shock to many.

The Fed could give a fuck about these indicators.  This is just another squeeze to fuck the shorts.

 

Scalping is the only way.

 

Earnings will be shit, but packaged to read bullish and the fuckstream media will be complicit in promoting all is good.

 

As well, yellen will take orders from bullshit-barry as to how much Treasury debt she is to buy and how much of it will be poured into buying AAPL, TSLA and FACEFUCK.

 

And that cocksucker, bullshit-barry, will lounge in the white house telling the world how well his has done.

 

And this fuck bullshit-barry wants to run the UN next.  Hope you die from cancer first bullshit-barry you satanic piece of shit.
