Art of the Deal
Steak and malbec. Applause. An unexpected photograph. ES up over 50. Laughter at the bears. Cancellations from those too cowardly to stand fast. Absolute certainty that lifetime highs were on the way. Praise of our really smart, great-father, great-husband President. And plus he’s a genius businessman and really honest. You fucking bet. And then……….
Meanwhile, I have my Blue Bottle, I’m watching Magnolia, and I am updating my stops. I am the light fighting the darkness. And the light is going to win. But I’m not going to insult your President, because he’s just a great, great guy. Absolutely.
Chico’s and the Man
Well, my tweet this morning pretty much said it all:
I’ve mentioned Chico’s (CHS) again and again and again as a short idea, given its huge dome pattern. It’s been kind of a frustrating position, but today it finally paid off, plunging nearly 40% within minutes. I went ahead and covered at about $4.50, although I would be delighted to short it again on any meaningful bounce.

I am, as you might imagine, ungodly busy right now. YOU trying managing 90 short positions and running a business at the same time! It’s a good thing they are related.
In any case, I’ll try to be prolific this weekend. In the meantime, enjoy the selloff. I am sticking with every single one of my positions.
