ANOTHER EXCURSION INTO NFP IDIOCY & DISHONSTY

“With Corruptocrats like Der Fuhrer comes the politicization of government !!”


Oh joy oh fun, another NFP Idiocy Day, where math whiz kids from the Department

of Unicorns & Fairy Tales make up job numbers out of thin air, and sell that shit to

a financial market all too eager to take the bait … simply more propaganda for the

financial masses, and for scumbag banks to screw those dumb enough to “play”

the numbers like a roulette wheel … of course, this month sees the most

important numbers EVAHHHHHHHHH!!, cuz it’ll help determine whether the

Lounge Lizards pause or raise rates at the June Reichstag meeting.


Well now, that escalated quickly didn’t it? … ANOTHER WHOLLY MADE UP PIECE

OF WORK, where for the 15th month in a row, the jobs gains beat consensus

expectations … who believes any of this shit? … another stellar month of job

hires by Applebee’s & Chili’s, or other part time worthless paying pieces of shit

jobs nobody wants except illegal immigrants … I’m sure Goebbels would be

proud of the latest numbers.


So now, Spicoli and the other Lounge Lizards got a real problem, cuz if you

believe the bullshit from government, there’s no way you pause rates … on the

other hand, you want more banks to fail with continued increases? … cuz the

higher rates go the more money flows out of regional banks and into money

market funds, and down go deposits … and when that happens trouble starts in

River City … the decline of America, right on schedule!


And while we’re talking about America’s scheduled decline into already Banana

Republic status, a great article post on Zh, the link directly below … it’s well

worth the read if you missed it.

And of course, against this backdrop the Clown College voted for a $4 TRILLION

dollar increase in the national debt [Repubs caved, natch], which will be washed

down the entitlements rathole in about 20 - 24 months, and the country gets

ZILCH for it … so more inflation on the horizon, and more MISERY for ‘Murica’s

middle class … but no worries, “AI” will save everybody and the NDX100 will go

to Infinity on “smoke & mirrors” accounting, and everybody gets rich by owning

AI “Stonks”, and isn’t everything just rosy as all Hell? … just remember all of you

81 million Fucktoids that voted for Der Fuhrer, who fell down at the Air Force

Academy and couldn’t get up without his clapper, that when SHTF and everything

goes tapioca, you got nobody to blame but yourself!


I dunno, markets [cough, bullshit, cough] seem very confused by the NFP

numbers … the usual “Scumbaggery & Fuckery” from banks on the release, and

anybody playing the “news release Keno board” got screwed, natch … now we

sit inside tight ranges awaiting the criminal, money laundering NYSE open … this

mound of market bullshit is plenty high … again, since we’re all interest rate

traders now, where Cable goes is a function of where the 2 YR. Treasury yield

goes, and it’s been all over the place.


STIR’s skyrocket, “Stock Bellies” melt up in an orgasmic display of FOMO that

makes ZERO sense, the dollar sky rockets, and gold gets monkey hammered like

a baby seal at a Japanese whale hunt … oh, and Bitcoin sits and does nuttin’

honey … all of course in one-way moves that defy logic, cuz all of the buying or

selling is straight … however, there was one brief “Stock Bellies” correction, but

aside from that every market is simply a freight train out of control down the

tracks … literally nothing makes any sense in this FUBAR make believe fantasy

world markets live in at the casino … nothing!


I’ve never been a big fan of this NFP Idiocy, going all the way back to my days on

the trading floor … it’s a manipulative shit day, and the numbers are fairy tale

bullshit and always have been … in today’s era of manipulation, especially in FX,

we get the straight shot off the numbers, and in this case today it’s straight down

in Cable now for over 4+ hours … just continued selling with zero rallies, and a

slow walk down the ramp … won’t sell it without a rally, and I’m not buying it either

cuz it can’t rally … either way, it’s a heartburn trade … I’m relieved Cable didn’t

have the messy gaps gold & YEN are putting in with regularity, but straight

shots aren’t helping things either … No trades today in Cable for the PAMM

… pre NFP it was a joke of nothingness … post NFP it was straight down … this

isn’t the kind of action we’re looking for, but with NFP Idiocy it can / does happen

quite often … meh, nothing you can do but wait it out and come back Monday

… over these last months and years, Cable has morphed from “The Widow Maker”

into a trading market more on the lines of USDCAD, not the bat shit crazy [BSC]

market of yesteryear … it still is very much a “traders market”, although you

wouldn’t know it from today’s NFP bullshit … I’ll attack it again on Monday where

conditions should return to normal … but like I said earlier, “we’re all 2 YR

Treasury Note traders now, so wherever STIR’s go, Cable and the rest of FX

follows suit in the appropriate manner”.


Over at IQCENT, I dunno what’s happened to Bitcoin, but it’s dead … a few trades

today in SP500 for “The Syndicate”, and we’re UP APPROXIMATELY 0.7% … could

and probably should have done better in hindsight, but with rates rocketing

higher while “Stock Bellies” go orbital does not make for any kind of comfortable

trade scenarios … we got a few good buy signals, and I made the most of them ‘til

they stalled … and I will remind readers that these are trades I can’t make for the

PAMM at Coinexx cuz the spread is higher, the quote is phantom bullshit, and the

slippage on fills horrific. 


My trades at IQCENT right on the money no problem … too bad Coinexx can’t learn

this principle for their CFD’s … FX not a problem, but anything in the CFD arena

and you’re gonna get screwed by Coinexx absolutely guaranteed … blog update

on Sunday.


… OUTTA HERE … “The future’s so bright I need 2 pairs of sunglasses 😎😎,

and my own Brinks armored truck” πŸ’“!! … Onward & Upward!!
