Energy stocks up ... for now.
GS pans its competitors.
Russia acting like a good 19th century imperialist.
HP good earnings ... odd for a "soft world economy".
Babblevision is still blathering.
Here's something new: Chinese stocks roar up. Those stocks have been trending down for a long time.
Here are my Alpha Fund positions: BAC (double), JPM, C, GE, CVX, DVN, RIG, CCJ, FCX, (BA+IR+ITW), (GD+LMT). Year to date performance sucks. But the year is not over.
Krypto Fund is balanced again, after the recent buy of gold+silver+Vanguard Precious Metals Fund with proceeds of partial sale of Vanguard REIT fund. Krypto Fund is massively outperforming the stock averages - by about 10%.

Reuters/Zogby poll shows McCain 46, Obama 41.
Is Obama melting back to the core 40% D vote ?
GS out today...texas tea back to 149 by year end...bold call or must have to make numbers, you decide...sure to get beefers headed back to the old water pond...long oil short fins their call Bunky.
possible, but I think oil demand rules for now.
If beefer run it up now, real seller might hedge.
But there' a lot of beefer $, more than enough to overwhelm sellers.
But I'm not sure they are confident enough to follow that horse again.
Yes, this stomping bores me. Al least I'm getting lots of barn time in.
Buddybullybull...what are we doing today...guess we better get some oil related names to go with the SKF QID...Bunky all over DVN RIG, well done sir.
back to these stupid 'beefer' theories??
Bman are you aware that 2008 has been the worst year ever for hedge funds.......and tons have been completely wiped out
yes frosty i got your f'ng email
what do you want ......a gold medal??
i leave the ass kissing for spin
'great trade bob'
Bud in which ear do you wear the earring.
Why is a bad year for beefers inconsistent with my theories ? In fact it is more proof that I am correct. One thing I had been saying is that with so much money in so many beefers - esp. trading beefers - that they could not perform well and would simply chew each other up ... like pirahnas.
or beat each other up like drunks in a bar.
hehe, I know you like animal metaphors, Bud
;-)
Mern said he would pop in the bunker at lunch time when home to water the puppy...he will tighten Bud up...stagflation report ahead.
OHHHhhhh no he di-nnt!!!!!
azzrat stole my line too...figures..what else is new..pffttt
Bud should be estatic with those new Big John poll numbers.
Obama might be a wax dummy melting in the harsh light :-))
yes encouraging Bman
the best news for Mccain this week was his performance at saddleback
all the talk of Obama crushin him in the debates is over.......mac was very impressive
the other good news is the so-called money advantage for Obama may really be way overblown
Mac opted for public financing....and he will get a check for 84m after the convention....and he won't have to spend any time raising money
84m plenty for him to compete in the swing states
Bud shutty...Mern is due on the stage...please step aside sir.
thats IF Grossberger lets him use the puter 2 days in a row...might cost him a pack of smokes...or worse..lol
I must say..naples shootin from the hip...lol
thanks Jim
naples is clueless
he's on the monthly plan
mern enjoying the golden showers with his new freind...no time for bunker boys...ppfffttt.
Bud selling that SKF and taking the other side, worth a shot with a tight leash...do you ping pong...paddles at the ready.
frosty i only trade the QID
what you doin there??
QID still have some..hedging it today with QCOM AMZN.
in full disclosure...something Bud insists upon...I do have select fin shorts
frosty swung at my pitch in the dirt
this is gettin too easy
gift wrap 20 SKF pts and a mid day flip for another 4...get a sack stomp in return...gesh...flazzholes are brutal
