I watch CNBC to see if Cramer is going to have a stroke on the 9am show.

LOLz, or that nasty Michelle chick will slap him.

Michelle...nasty? That is my future junior wife when I get the Utah compound built.

I don't speak for Caliga but I think he'd approve.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Metals traders are dying to use this current drop to load up. With the PCs tomorrow by Geithner and Obama, tomorrow is bound to be a down day. I went pretty heavily short SPY Friday at the close. I will be closing those trades most likely tomorrow. Certainly before Wednesday. Bernanke can rip your face off with a surprise beyond "operation twist" and we can go into a new bullish phase on both stocks and commodities. If that happens, I'm going back into silver, increasing my position in GLD and also taking some deep long calls going out maybe six months.


CNBC trading contest starts in the morning. I get five portfolios. I plan to make one each for bull market and bear market with as many leveraged ETFs as I can find. Another will be a Euro default portfolio, which will be short EUFN, euro currency and whatever else I can find betting on that. I may day trade with one. We'll see.


Edit: Although looking at the chart for gold, it looks bad...

For the game:


***Bear Portfolio-

Bought 15,000 shares FAZ.



***Bull Portfolio-

Bought 5000 shares TNA

Bought 4000 QQQQ

Bought FAS 2000

Bought AAPL 500




***Eurocrash Portfolio-

Bought 15000 FAZ

Shorted the euro with all of the margin I have available in forex.


I would never do any of this in real life.  :P



Edit: I'm trying to sell short Barclay's and Santander, but I guess I can't.

Added 5000 SH to bear portfolio.
