Donald "Patriotic American" Trump Portfolio Update
Last Thursday, Donald Trump appeared on CNBC, and in an attempt to generate PR publicity almost as bad as A&F's idiotic campaign to pay The Situation money not to wear their clothing, sad the following: '"You wouldn't believe it. I bought Bank of America, I bought Citi, I bought, you know, two troubled companies that I think have an upside, lets see what happens. Caterpillar, Intel, Johnson and Johnson, Proctor and Gamble." We were curious to see how Trump's latest foray into picking securities (as opposed to bankruptcy advisors - he truly excels there) turned out. Here is the result of what listening to the former (and/or future) presidential candidate has yielded in a few short days.
Below is a summary index of the 6 companies Trump purchased. It is time to convert this into an inverse ETF.

you're fired
Hopefully Trump can pick stocks better than he can pick toupee's.
Uh, huh, what's that, ok, well, looks like toupee 1 : stocks 0
I'm watching Final Destination 7... starring Bank of America
umm, looks like he took a bit of a haircut...under a fucking lawnmower.
was that trump or thump...lol
Trump is an idiot. Zero clue about trading.
Well....he did say that he didn't know 'stocks' and that real estate was his comfort area. And he said he was holding, not trading.
Not defending the man. And I understand he is a shill and a whore. But let's hang the man using his own words. There's still plenty of rope there to use.
.....is that the same comfort zone where he's bankrupted himself before?
He's not much good at that either, his real talent is getting sheep to follow him...simply because other sheep follow him.
His real talent is defeating Don King in that reality show on celebrity hair
Given his bankruptcy experience, ought be Sec Treas.
Trump: Entertaining blow-hard
Entertaining is a stretch don't you think?
As entertaining as a passing a fatal car crash on the highway. You just gotta look.
Good going, Donald, you stock picker, equity market timing extraordinaire!
Not only did you pick cess pool stocks that are going to tank in epic fashion, you might get some ten baggers (down)!!!
Your ass is fired, bitch!

cess pools are naturally attracted to each other
The Chinese are having a ball with the Biden
"U.S. desperate for vote of confidence from China," China Global Times headline.
Oh, man, speaking of complete and total idiots. Biden makes the Donald seem like an intellectual by comparison. Can you imagine sending him to negotiate for you. I can only imagine sending him to negotiate for me if I was intentionally trying to ruin myself. I hope that report makes it to a Drudge headline.
He competes well in the hair area, too, with Trump. He is oftern called "Plugs" biden, for his preference in hair treatment. Not sure which is worse, massive comb over or obvious plugs. Hmmm.
And speaking of Trump. It truly takes a brilliant guy to to inherite thousands of richly cash flowing Manhatten apartments from his daddy and turn them into multiple bankruptcies over the years. What a fool. What greater fools to think this guy's name represents class and value. I guess Barnum and Bailey had it right, "A sucker is born every minute." Trump is the ultimate carnival huckster.
C and BAC were stupid, but giving the trades a week to perform on a 450 point down day is just as
Perhaps but it's funny as hell
He'll be back on an allowance like he was in 1991
Trump makes more money pretending to be a big shot rather than being a big shot. That's why I thought he'd be the perfect president of Paper Tiger America.
Wig Wharehouse oughta pay him to not wear their product.
Trump will run as an independent reviving the Whig Party. After all, he is a big whig.
He'll engage the flyover voters with his combover.
Milhouse voice: Ha-ha!
I think you mean Nelson Muntz?
Donalds bankrupt again
Maybe we SHOULD elect him as President -- after taking a hit like that he may admit he knows nothing about the makret and would keep his grubby dick skinners out of it and allow it to trade freely.
Total loser that knows nothing about economics
Sorrentino was right, Trump IS a chump!
Donald Trump wants to be like Ron Popeil, but he's not in the same ballpark intellectually:

Too bad Ron P didnt make the Set it and Forget it hair styler for the Donald
More Money More Money More money...easy cheezie ha ha ha
Donald Trump is a scumbag.
Donald Trump moves to Florida and turns someone's home into a fucking niteclub for people from boca and broward.
Donald Trump does not pay his bills, no one will do business with him because he stiffs contractors / sub-contractors.
Donald Trump would be Broke! is not for his father saving him.
now that his father is gone we will see how he does.
Donald Trump also wants to turn the coast of Scotland into his private golf retreat for banking swine and relocate all the locals who have a real econonmy fishing, farming, trades and have been there hundreds of years.
I would rank his stock purchases up there close to the Donald getting rid of Marla Maples. Another beautiful Jawga girl.........
how was this index constructed?
He better own some gold
A lot of wealthy people are going to get burned when the inevitable gold revaluation hits
The trully wealthy people have been quietly moving assets into gold with the phoney market rally.
I'm sure now the Donald woud have liked to follow the unelectable Ron Paul's investment advice of BUY GOLD.
Hey maybe since he is so good at filing for bankruptcy he can be teh prez and get rid of the national debt and entitlement shortfalls via bankruptcy./sarc
What's a Donaldtrump?
Sounds like a bad combover or infectious disease or something.
doh!
Donald Hump
Donald T. Rump
cat,intc,jnj,pg...thoes are good picks...
inverse ETF, man you got to love ZH :D
The Donald knows how to game the system...the real estate, bankruptcy, B list celebrity system that he operates in.
Wearing that roadkill on his head can't shield him from a good old fashioned market drubbing. Sorry Donald stick to your go-to(runnning businesses into the ground and reality TV, Hey Jim Cramer and Glenn Beck are doing just fine!)
Suddenly, The world is ending..WOW..
DO NOT DO SOMETHING TODAY...
nice use of negative space....
Shouldn't the headline have read Donald "The Bankrupt" Trump Portfolio Update ? Not to nitpick or anything.
Trump is awesome. He got Barry to release his birth certificate which subsequently caused Osama bin Laden to be killed. Thanks dude.
Who would have to get whacked if he released his college transcripts?
Great rhetorical question dude. Lets try and have some fun it w/o thinking about someone getting whacked.
Perhaps a combination of: a return to S&P 666, a free fantasy football draft party for all Americans at Buffalo Wild Wings and something going wrong with Kim K’s wedding all on the same day might just do it.
Otherwise, we could get space aliens. I want/hope/believe they will be sexy. My position on this is firm. No Charles Hugh Smith, two-minding of this and that when it comes to aliens.
Just another highly visible, self-proclaimed "expert" whose prognostications we can dismiss. The quote that opinions are like assholes always comes to mind whenever Trump pontificates.
BOA?
It's one thing to buy a piece of shit property and FIX what is broke with it.
Buying a broke piece of shit bank and not having the ability to control or impliment a fix is the most assine thing I've ever heard of.
I've heard him say he had never owned stock, knows nothing about stocks and would never play in the market. Why now does he come out. I wonder how much he bought. Maybe he only put in 10k but that got him on CNBC and got him publicity so he actually made a fantastic deal. CNBC wll put anyone on that will extoll the virtues of buying stocks. According to them stocks should be bought at Dow 14000 and should be bought at Dow 8000. The only asset CNBC continuously talks down and "just doesn't understand" is gold. They have been crapping on gold since 800. Every day it goes up it is a sign of a top. When it goes down a fraction they crow about how gold just doesn't work. CNBC should be boycotted unless you like the comedy shows they put on.
zero server is very slow ..need a n upgrade???
Trump should stick to what his old man taught him and what he seems to do best, doing deals using opm......

'nother big down day on big auction day
plunge provider is the new plunge protection
The Donald is a product of wealth. His father was a wealthy realestate tycoon. Does anyone really think there are self made, pull yourself up by the boot straps kind of leaders in this country? None that anyone cares about.
dunno, but Trump seems to be doing a good job of pulling himself up by his jock strap :(
i'm going to have to go with CD on this.
people use trump like a scape goat, just like they do madoff. only trump is not an outright criminal like madoff.
people ARE SUCKERS. if people want to gamble in casinoes, watch stupid television shows and buy the junk that is advertised during the commercial breaks, then donald trump is not the worst guy in the world for getting rich exploiting idiocy.
the one thing that might be seemingly criminal but is fully legal is the trend of how new york city government handed him public property (along the west 60's and 70's) with a small requirement for him to invest in the waterfront and rebuild the 72nd street subway station.
however, he got a good deal and he did in fact build ALOT of housing in a place that new yorkers were willing to pay for it.
just because the man went bankrupt on the money of banks and rebuilt himself doesn't make him public enemy number one.
he's just another lame excuse for a figure-head because many american voters are fools and worship bling. blame democracy and populism for the rise of a man like trump. he is the golden calf.
He’s setting us up with suspense for the coming full disclosure of his entire stock portfolio. It’s a promotional technique he must have learned from his forays in the media.
“Now that you’ve seen this, we’ll have a complete list of all the best stocks to short, right after these messages from the Trump Plaza Casino.”
Maybe dipshit Donald will be bankrupted again.
Not a good time giving the free debt money ponzi is ending.
Well at least he has some name recognition. He won't starve I'm sure.
But will he be able to afford all those prety wigs?
"Time to turn this into an inverse etf."
HAHAHAHA
Brilliant!
HAHAHAHAHA!!! I love you guys!!!! Time to turn this into an inverse ETF. wahahaha... so good.
"It is time to convert this into an inverse ETF."
Called the Strump index?
Trump: The consumate bullshitter, hypemeister extraordinaire.
Instead of the "Art of the Deal" his book should have been the "Whore of the Hype."
There's a reason Trump has gone bankrupt so many times.......
Please buy some more BAC and C!
Correction, much more!! And then go bankrupt!!!
