What a lovely market-correction Monday. What are you buying?
I am supplementing my current holdings in Disney, Tesla Motors, Con. Edison, and Kinder Morgan. And acquiring another large chunk of my Vanguard S&P 500 index.
I’m buying “Market losers guide to welfare and poaching.” 2015 edition.
I’m buying milk and Walmart rice krispies this afternoon. And a Snickers bar.
In my office we get Snickerses for free! I’m really rollin’ in it.
[sub]ETA: They’re only fun-size tho. 
[/sub]
I’m buying pork bellies, which are used to make bacon, which you might find in a bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich.
^ With a melted Snickers on top?
The turnaround will come when Chinese banks start buying US stocks-that would be a good way for them to recycle their enormous surpluses. Plus, give them a better return than Treasuries.
Turns to face camera
I’m watching the BLT futures market and believe they’ve drifted into positive territory.
I am buying Mexican pesos. Today they are 17.10 to one dollar. But, I live in Mexico. Been here 10 years. I have never seen that high of an exchange.
In a move designed to bolster the BLT futures market, I hereby announce that I am planning to eat a BLT sandwich for supper this evening.
Regrettably, there’s no longer futures trading in pork bellies
liue:
Once again, the conservative, sandwich-heavy portfolio pays off for the hungry investor!
Indeed, I’m definitely moving my ratings for any pork-based sandwich from “Hold” to “Buy and eat”.
I consider the stock market to be immoral exploitation of the working class, so I’ll take the chicken.
Ah, artificially influencing the market, That’s the spirit!
Frozen concentrated orange juice.
HA! I bought THREE Snickers bars and have eaten them! I’m the backbone of the economy; I am CONSUMING! I’m creating a DEMAND! I DEMAND more Snickers! That money is back in circulation!
burp Time for a nap. Hotter than a snake’s ass in a wheel rut, today.
We actually picked up some Ventas (VTR) and Merge Healthcare (MRGE) stock.
