Dear Fintas.....
we are so humble, filled with Grace and courage as WE HAVE the
Protection and the Mandate of our Lord YHWH...............
His only earthly Begotten Son Jesus Christ.... the Messiah who is at his Right Hand...... and the balance out
the Trinity we have the Holy Spirit......... the secret sauce that 99% of the people on SI and on Planet earth
do not comprehend.............( i have to admit that the concept of a Holy Spirit of Holy Ghost as the Roman
Catholics, call the Holy Spirit.....does sound kind of .............. well Ghosts were the Premise of the
1984 Comedy starring Bill Murray, Dan A., Harold Ramis... etc...Ghostbusters)
and face it, the movie (Ghost busters is a comedy whose premise is 3 (then 4) who are running around
Manhattan earning huge fees for catching Ghosts.......
for a large enough fee . I myself will personally come to you town and catch what ever Ghosts need to be
taught....... and we AT GFA for an additional FEE.... (and we do charge larger FEES for the more elaborate
work;) charge typically $19,999 to perform an exorcism.......
Now why one would need an exorcism....... is really beyond both my ken......and well above my paygrade .
However, I do know that there is no Fee that is too large that we will not accept...... and no Job to small for
us to execute the job with our fastidious attention to detail.
SO they are trapped by "our adversary"........ as the Gods Chosen people .... the Jews would describe him in Hebrew in the Old Testament........
since you and I appear to be among a fairly small subset of the entire population of Silicon Investor who are
"turned On" to this........ they wonder what are we are up to .... how could they Know.
Parables are the most profound way of providing instructions....... and you and I know the world's Most
Prolific Parabolist............. Possibly this is why Parabolic or Exponential Growth and increase of Knowledge
if occuring..... and we are enlightened...........
I am technically a Messianic Jew.... most people don't have a clue as to what this is and are way TOO
Lazy and Intellectually challenged to ask Google to explain it to them.... Let along pick up a book and read
about it..........( I realize that I am sounding pretty cynical and condensceding as I read those last few
sentences and I do not intend to be that kind of person, so the folks on SI have to appreciate that I am
a writer and do both technical writing.... and could generate a manual for a very sophisticated Sub Zero
freezer..... that's pretty dreary "just the facts m'am" straight out of the old TV series Dragnet.
I truly enjoy in my literary career.... (GZ is a published Novelist, who wrote a really great book way back in
1998 or 1999) so he would understand that it's possible to "wear several different hats" and my writing
about the financial markets is just so different from what I actually really enjoy writing about is life and the
absurdity of "on the Road " books like Jack Kerouac's book...... is actually titled
On the Road.

On the Road. ... On the Road is a novel by American writer Jack Kerouac, based on the travels of Kerouac and his friends across the United States. It is considered a defining work of the postwar Beat and Counterculture generations, with its protagonists living life against a backdrop of jazz, poetry, and drug use.

It is considered a defining work of the postwar Beat and Counterculture generations
as I read that...... it's basically saying that Kerouac... managed to write the mystical
"Great American Novel"....... that would be so cool to do....... but I am a realist and I don't have
that ability ...or you really need to tap into the Zeitgeist of the times just as F Scott Fitzgerald did
when he authored the classic "Great Gatsby".........
and the storyline of that American classic novel...... had one of the main characers in the profession
of Bond Broker..... or bond dealer who was a huge "producer" meaning that he was sold a chit load of bonds to his wealthy clientele.......
-------------------------------------------------
perhaps everyone and especially Don Green who wrote me a fairly lengthy PM last night telling me
how he had concerns about me........
so maybe I should have stated it right up front 19 years ago when I started writing the Market Lab....
that I intended to endeavor to attempt to write "a Great American Novel" but was so subtle about
that aspect of it that for 19 years...... most people view this as a Market Laboratory thread that does
very dry..... Morgan Stanley like research pieces on a given stock........ a given market ... such as
FX, Bonds, Derivatives...... Indexes,..............global geopolitical analysis, some pretty heavy duty
"inside baseball stuff" on how to apply some pretty sophisticated Technical Analysis techniques.....
such as Fibonacci ratio's..... RSI's, Rate of Change Oscillators...... moving average systems....
etc. etc. etc.
and I do provide posts my one from yesterday is a great example of me posting a whole bunch of charts on a huge array of markets which was all charts and no written analysis as was trading the
market.... trying to stay on the wild wooly bull and not get tossed off of it before the 8 seconds you
have to ride a bull for it to be a qualifying "success"
I would not get on a 5,000 pound bull and get my back irreparably damaged....... by trying to do something that no--most person playing with a full deck would not want to do... and for obvious
reasons..... after you spend you 3 months in the Hospital recovering from the broken leg, pelvis,
collarbone and the vertebrae in the back that probably fuse together,,,,,
--------------------------------------------
The very first part of this very long!!!!! post was me writing last night when I got home at 3 AM after
being out and about hanging with a few friends at several venues with live music...... restaurants...
--------------------------------------------------------
WD GANN commented in the preface of his master work "Tunnel Thru the Air" that so people would
pick up what he was communicating the first time they read the book..... However he stated that you must read the book 3 times.......
and then upon the completion of that task...... They would then be compelled to read the Bible....
both the Old and New Testament.... 3 TIMES.......
The Bible must be read completely and comprehended 3 times prior to one gaining Illumination,
Enlightenment and the Grace of the Lord.
You can give people a treasure map with an X marking the spot... and yet they still think it's
a Hustle, a Dodge..... A con game......
pity the wicked and pity the prideful.
My excellent friend Tom Wallace of Bankers Trust..... told me on so many occasions that Hubris is the Fall of MAN.
-----------------------------------------------------
I am going to post this note from Don G as he does not disclose any personal information regarding him but I believe it the benefit of including it will help all of the many readers and causual observers of this thread and my participation on Silicon Investor.... as to the totality of what I am doing on this thread and on
Silicon Investor.........
to bottomline it..... if u look at it from one perspective.... I have over the past 20 year written a pretty darn
compelling "Great American Novel"..... in the format of 20000 to 2020....... which is this huge number of daily writing where we end up covering just about everything except the price of tea in China....... as I would
bet you I have never used that old chessnut before now......
eveyone have a great weekend...
Respectfully...... John Jacob ... P
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Don G is actually afraid of me.......... LOL.....
sorry Don .... I hope that maybe as you reflect on everything I have written at 3 am and then from 8:30 Am to 9:30 am today.... and you will have a broader overview of what it is that I am doing here on this thread....

Just to be clear my intention was not to put you on ignore, but the only way I could block you from sending me nasty and rude private messages as a few listened below, was to put you on ignore.
Sadly there is no block PM function.
Then because you were upset that I had the audacity to put you on ignore, you take one of my posts which was not a distraction from your board. Just something I found which presented an alternative opinion, which even two of your devoted followers recommended, then you try to embarrass me.
Sadly what I learned from these events is that you have multiple personalities and depending on the moment you can't always know what to expect. So I prefer to put you on ignore to block your rude comments and then I can pick and choose what I want to read and or recommend.
Honestly, you seem like an interesting fellow but I have learned you have a few facets to your personality I prefer not to deal with
Respectfully with caution
Don

you obviously after 74 years not done all that much reading........ every ABOVE PAR writer.......
rights in different styles over time......... you really strike me as a dilettante....
and by that I mean someone who pretends to have a fertile , active mind.... but is totally blindsided
by those people who have the facility to communicate a range of meanings,,, a range of expressions
and .convey an array of emotions over time......
your short tenure on SI is your indictment........
face it you are a facile minded poser...............
stop whining so bloody much.....

if you really followed my posts u would know that I reign in and reduce the
go go Alpha stock exposure.... I caught the exact top in NVDA 2 plus months ago when it
occurred............. I let alpha occur, while managing the negative side of alpha.....
I have been on these boards for 20 years and you have tried to understand what I do..... without
go back to see what I do...
not that it's your job to do so............. but if you ask bob furman or many of the 20 year followers....
they know what I do.... I don't boast...and I do not pick my thousand posts that have
correctly, anticipated moves in every asset class.

my final though as I glance at Don's writing ... is he is talking about my devoted followers.... this thread is
not supposed to have "devoted followers" nor any groupies...... or any thing like that...... It's just us talking about what's going on with the markets.... Past , present and Future ( which is conjecture)......
and then inserting my Dr. Hunter S Thompson..... "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas ( a savage journey to
the heart of the American Dream) onzo Journalism... where elements of straight up factual reporting are
then interlaced with very fanciful..... takes on a huge array of subjects........
so Don and fellow readers.... this is in fact my, version (albeit..... a pretty darn slipshot one without a huge
overarching them since I have no idea when it's going to be finished.... I think I may just go right for the
Jugular and endeavor to create more pages and word's than Marcel Proust's Epic 3 volume 3000 + pages
of his novel " Recherchez Les Temps Perdu.......
:Remembrances of times Gone by....
the actual literal translation of his french title is remembering times Past.
your humble scribe,
John Jacob Pitera.....
come to Chicago on Oct 19th and meet me in person...... as I am also a musician... have a band.......
and who knows in another 5 or 10 years I might end up famous and y'all will be able to tell your friends..
yes I actually met the guy and he was one of the wackiest, zany..... multifaceted.... multitalented
kind of guy I have ever met...

epilolog..... in 2017 Don started to write on this project alot and he had lazer like focus on why the VIX
was so low and it was really concerning him and he was really annoyed at the VIX for being so consistently
low for so consistently long... to the best of my recollection he was upset as he mentioned that he traded some of the volatility ETF's (He never stated specifically what it was he was doing...... but the
thing he keep saying and submitting innumerable articles that demonstrated that indeed in 2017.. the VIX
was a placid and calm...... as Lake Travis in Austin on a hot summer day........
one made by god .... for those of us who love to water ski... |
