MMM-105: Tons of Pennies

April is a bad month to speculate. Proof that past stock prices don’t predict their future price. I’m asking you to delete that picture. Tons of pennies. I love Portal. Review Lazy Portfolio Smackdown.

Topics in this week’s show include:    

• April is a bad month to speculate on stocks. I list the other bad times also.
• Jim Cramer has to be right 4 times to beat the market: Which stock & when to buy, which stock & when to sell. Multiply that by 10 years. Crazy.
• Our Tool this week is Inspectd.com which helps prove to yourself that you can’t pick a winning stock based upon its past stock price.
• IGotCramered.com is back in action now.
• Law enforcement official “asks” you do do something?
• Some guy stores tons of copper pennies in his garage.
• I loved playing Portal. Definitely recommended!

Bohemian Financial Rhapsody

Is this the real price? Is this just fantasy?
Financial landslide No escape from reality

Open your eyes
And look at your buys and see.
I’m now a poor boy (poor boy)
High-yielding casualty
Because I bought it high, watched it blow
Rating high, value low
Any way the Fed goes
Doesn’t really matter to me, to me

Mama – just killed my fund
Quoted CDO’s instead
Pulled the trigger, now it’s dead
Mama – I had just begun
These CDO’s have blown it all away
Mama – oooh-hoo-ooo
I still wanna buy
I sometimes wish I’d never left Goldman at all.

(guitar solo)

~~~

I see a little silhouette of a Fed
Bernanke! Bernanke! Can you save the whole market?
Monolines and munis – very very frightening me!
Super senior, super senior
Super senior CDO – magnifico

I’m long of subprime, nobody loves me
He’s long of subprime CDO fantasy
Spare the margin call you monstrous PB!
Easy come easy go, will you let me go?
Peloton! No – we will not let you go – let him go
Peloton! We will not let you go
(let him go !)
Peloton! We will not let you go – let me go
Will not let you go
let me go (never) Never let you go – let me go Never let me go – ooo
No, no, no, no, No, NO, NO ! –
Oh mama mia, mama mia, mama mia let me go
S&P had the devil put aside
for me
For me, for me, for me

~~~

So you think you can fund me and spit in my eye?
And then margin call me and leave me to die Oh PB – can’t do this to me
Just gotta get out – just gotta get right outta here

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah
No price really matters
No liquidity
Nothing really matters – no price really matters to me
Any way the Fed goes…..

• Matrix Rhapsody & Bohemian Matrix
• Economic Stimulus? Can we please get the gobmint out of the business of “managing” the economy?
• Can we please get back to using REAL money?
• I review the results of the 2008 Lazy Portfolio Smackdown sponsored by Index Funds Advisors. The bears are leading the charge, so far…
