No, no bullish hammers today. Couldn't be. Not possible. Not in these dire times. They may look like hammers, but it's clear they're made of glass. Factories can't turn out proper hammers anymore. Those aren't hammers -- they're glass Fleckenmallets, made only for beating prices down further.
Woe betide us all! Heaven help us! Oh, what a pitiful, wretched market! Pity all buyers in this time of trouble!! Why bother to prop it up? It won't work. It's all useless!
TXN -- why that's not a hammer. INDU, not no way. COMPQ -- not a chance. XOM, nope. CSCO -- uh, nope. QQQ -- nah. SPY -- don't think so. GE -- nah. DIA -- no. Etcetera. Not hammers. Definitely not! I'M NOT LISTENING! NOPE! THOSE ARE MOST ASSUREDLY NOT HAMMERS!!! DON'T TELL ME THOSE ARE HAMMERS!! How could they be hammers in this market?? I appeal you your reason! Not, not, not. Nope. Negative!!!
It's so clear that the market will just continue to fall! What else could it do, for pity's sake? It's a bear market, after all! It just needed that little extra push, didn't it? Shoot it. Put it down. Put it out of its misery! It's falling further! Much further!!! Not only further, but farther! Can't you see it? Try to be reasonable! It's so obvious!
The economy is so awful!! Oh, bubblemania!! The market's being held up artificially! Oh, that sly old Mr. Greenspan! It won't work! Remember what happened in Japan! Think of the Great Depression!!! For mercy's sake, spare us all!!!
Oh gloom. Oh doom!
Give us some guidance!!! What do we short tomorrow?
There, have I finally got it right? One bearish sage called it a "flagging market" today. Heh-heh -- get it? Do you get it? Isn't that clever? Isn't that funny? Isn't that an amusing dig. Oh-ho-ho. That is just so marvelously, sneeringly clever, isn't it? |
