Red Mountain Coffee: Here Is Who Just Lost 30%

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The winner, by technical knockout is David Einhorn. The losers are the following: we hope they earn their 2 and 20 in other, more efficient and creative ways than merely chasing momentum...

And this is what an after hour Brokeback Mountain massacre looks like.

Tyler, I submit that you create a column, "MOMO Watch," to canvass these pathetic, stock du jour outfits; to wit: as I have noted every single time with respect to these momo detonations, that most pathetic of all momo late-to-the-trend followers, is the 401(k) collection pool and erstwhile crib ( in the MTV sense ) of Peter Lynch, Fidelity Investments.

Hey Fido -- perhaps a little "diworseification" isn't a bad thing, when one of a certain mutual fund's top-10 holdings goes down the privy to the tune of 34% in a single evening...

The ad at the top of this page for me was one for Green Mountain Coffee at 15% off.  Maybe they meant 30%.....;)

Despite being very bullish on the US economy over the long term, I actually admit I feel sorry for RobotTrader right now.

NFLX: gone

LNKD: gone

AAPL: practically gone

And now GMRC... then LULU ??

Yes, lots of carnage out there.  Fortunately, Crapola Corp. (CRAP-OTC), the leading distributor of small, discretionary, home decor items, is trading at world-record highs and is my largest single holding.

One of my biggest regrets of 2011.  I shorted this from $103 all the way to the top at $113-$115 range and then covered at $110 for breakeven.  Too much fear of a run to $120.  This is one where I should have stuck with intuition and discipline.  Sick, sick, sick..... Still looking at PEET and SBUX and DPZ and BJRI.  But boy I missed out here at GMCR.

Who's the next to fall....

It was Caerus. It was trading at $61 when he made the call, and promptly jumped up to $70. I was watching it, thought about buying some Nov 19 puts today, with earnings coming out after hours. Didn't do it. Regrets. Congrats, Caerus, good call.

Shorting is a bitch. We know we are right in our thesis but just be off a few days and we get stopped out. Many, many more out there that we know will collapse at some point. Part of the reason I stopped shorting a while back. Timing will kill us.

Agree on all except AAPL. They can definitely move lower into the mid 300s, but with 80 billion in cash they are a bit different then most of these obscene PE companies.

And this is just the beginning. Burritos anyone? Look at these intelligent (ha) funds and the amount of this crap they have.

GM anyone???lolol NEXT!!

No shorts.

Agree on Apple & it's not just the cash. iPad demand and iPhone 4 demand are through the roof, too, and their laptop business is growing as more corps flee RIM and jump on the APL bandwagon.

Reggie's margin compression thesis is eventually going to come into play, but not yet.  There are a lot of better options if you want to short something.

Don't.  Unless you already have millions to be able to afford the lawyers and penalties, I mean pay-offs, to the SEC when they come and try to butt-rape you over the minutest of details.  That or make sure you are well-stocked on midgets to keep the SEC busy while you're trading.

Goldman Sachs: charged with fraud in hundreds-of-millions, gets off with penalty less than 5% of annual income.

Start-up HF: charged with fraud in thousands, forced to pay penalty 80%+ of annual income, driven into bankruptcy.

Oh well, live and learn. My other Nov puts had been taking a beating but bounced back a little today. Another day like today and I'll be in the money and could still have a homerun or two. Here's to reality in the markets. Cheers.

What Green Mountain has fallen back to May levels and still has a 70 p/E? That isn't a fall, wake me up when it hits the real value of the company $5 a share.

Sodastream went up 5% and still hasn't dropped to a penny share where it belongs. The MOMOs are alive and well. Fine if you bought it in July you're fucked but most still have tripled over the last 52 weeks. If you want out of GMCR and bought at any time in 2010 you are sitting on a boatload of money. These garbage stocks need to be flushed forever, not just have a temporary drop.

There has never been a more overvalued stock market in history, period. The garbage today makes 1999 look like the definition of sanity. Record poverty, record food stamps, record drops in home values, record foreclosures, record unemployment, and RECORD HIGHS FOR INDIVIDUAL STOCKS???!!!!

If you play in this market you deserve to see your entire net worth vanish in the blink of an eye. That is the only way we'll ever revert to sanity in our economy. Those who can actually produce something of value will become valuable once again. Those with MBAs can lick the scum off boots for nourishment.
