  • 11/15/10 Midnight Report: Retail Sales Rotten at the Core

    A flurry of buyouts, headline-y good macro news (just don’t read the “not so” fine print), and the Fed promising to print enough dollars to make everyone a millionaire as Bernanke mimics the First Citiwide Change Bank “volume” strategy, caused investors to celebrate in the morning by doing the Dougie.  However, the market slipped end…

  • Small Company Update: Will Zagg Zigg?

    Money McBags finally had time to go through ZAGG’s Q after listening to the call again since their fucking transcript still hasn’t been posted (so fuck you very much StreetEvents or whomever is to blame) and catching up on his NSFW muff guessing.  Readers of the award winning When Genius Prevailed will know that Money…

  • 11/11/10 Midnight Report: Nuthin’ but a G-20 Thang

    The market slid today as Cisco spooked investors with a bad Q as they are still struggling to come up with a hit after the Thong Song, the G20 meetings proved to be less positive than a Helen Thomas pregnancy test, and macro news was more non-existent than dark matter (for now), as bond markets,…

  • 11/10/10 Midnight Report: Will Obama be Seoul Man Defending Fed at G20

    Marginal macro news, the upcoming G20 meetings, rising commodity margins, and enough uncertainty to make even Heisenberg jealous had the market once again bobbing up and down like Shyla Stylez trying to make her rent.  We remain at a confusing time with economic data saying the market should go down (that economic data being a U6 unemployment…

  • 11/9/10 Midevening Report: As QE2 Hangover Wears Off, Will Market Wake Up in A Pool of Its Own Volatility

    It was another lackluster day in the market as investors are still trying to regain their bearings from last week’s quadruple news high of elections, QE2, the jobs report, and Kat Dennings nude photos being released.  With all of the excitement of those events more than priced in to the market, investors have spent the…

  • Small Company Update: Dropping more KITD off at the pool

    KITD pre-announced their earnings today and in typical KITD fashion, they managed to both titillate and confound, like watching a hot chick deep throat Lexington Steele.  CEO Kaleil Tuzman certainly likes to keep things more interesting than a war of words between NFL players (and trust Money McBags that link is pure awesomeness) so Money…

  • 11/5/10 Midevening Report: Economy Stops Blowing Jobs

    Hells yeah.  The jobs report was released today and the economy added a headline 151k new jobs which means we will be back to a Keynesian healthy unemployment rate sometime around the year 2172, just in time for the third Tralfamadorian invasion of Earth, OJ to find the real killers, and Rocky XVII to be…

  • Small Company Update: DGIT DGIstroyed iT

    With the market shooting up to whatever number is just above infinity (we’ll call it Bernankity) thanks to the Fed’s strategy that somehow revolves around making rich people feel richer on paper so they will hire poor people, Money McBags is going to focus today on DGIT who just put up a spanktastic Q.  He…

  • 11/3/10 Midnight Report: What’s Black and White and Red all Over? Who the Fuck Cares, QE2 is Here

    What do we get for $900B?  Every-ting you want.  Everything?  Every-ting.  So sock it to Bernanke because with QE2 the dollar got so thorny as the Fed loves printing money for a long time (note to any reader not brought up on bad rap music, this will make the prior reference marginally funny, it will…

  • 11/2/10 Midnight Report: They’re baaaaaaaaaaack!

    The market rallied today as election booths underflowed with discontented voters, unemployed workers looking for a warm place to hang out during the day, and douchey hipsters who thought the lines were for the Apple store. — Apparently the Republicans are going to win back the House and thus have 1/4 of the decision making…
