At least I sold my few puts this morning.
The market is so strong that the CNBC can’t jinx it.
The market is so strong that Microsoft just hit 5 year highs. Yep – Microsoft. I declared this stock dead earlier in 2006 and said stay away. Terribly wrong. Obviously, the stock is not dead, despite the Company’s pure suckiness. Three explanations only – 1. Something good is happening at Microsoft that is not baked into the stock, 2. The economy is just flat out growing and it outweighs Microsoft’s absolute suckiness, or 3. A major headfake in the stock and it will return to it’s hole trapping the breakout traders.
I contend that search is just getting underway and money is flowing into Google, BIDU, Yahoo and Microsoft in that order.
I still will reposition into the strongest stocks and raise cash from my weakest stocks before earnings season gets into full swing.
Just a few weeks ago, Google and Apple haters (chart readers and nerd bloggers) were piling on as the stocks looked weak. As Tony Montana would say: “LOOOOOK AT ME NOW” or…”How’s about one of them first class tickets …to the resurrection”
By the way – BIDU, BIDU, BIDU….looks like an all-time high to me.
Disclosure – If you buy BIDU because of me, your next fortune cookie will have a fortune that reads…”You are a fucktard”
Long BIDU and Apple. Microsoft may be higher but they are still dead to me.
More Disclosure – Fucktard is the official word of THE FLY.
good thing i dont eat chinese
Did you know Einstein actully coined the “fucktard” phrase?…go to my site and check it out…lol
I’m all-in BIDU…thx for the tip Howard!!! just playin’, you crack me up
On this Howard news, I have upped my margin balance to 200% leveraged.
stop talking to me like I am cramer!
I completely agree on the suckiness of the company, that’s why I’m a Mac user, but even sucky companies make people money. I’ll ride the stock until it stops going up…suckiness or not. Stoploss firmly in place though.
“The Fly” doesn’t like such negative comments left on his message board.
Failure to acknowledge will result in a severe “poleaxing” of your favorite stock and cellular phone network.
Gee who would have thought that MSFT was the contrarian play of the year. Just getting started, and AAPL setting up perfect for a fall from grace.
The worst fortune I ever got out of a cookies read “that wasn’t chicken” …
thats classic
chill FLY :)
