Lot’s of Dealbreaker readers think so .

I am hoping Lindsay would rather be poked repeatedly in the eye than have that job. Funny as hell post and answers though. Go read them.

Now THIS was a Bad Day

Cheer up people.

Can you just imagine what Cramer would be doing on air on a day like that :) .

What a complete bunch of turds at CNBC. Thank goodness really. Here is their first recent disaster – their rigged and poorly thoght through stocks market game. Nice job.

Now today, I am reading over at Trader Mike that they will start charging for their web video content. Barry has the full story . They want $14.95/month to view the clips. Now, what I would pay for is video of Maria dating the Citibank guy on shareholder money. If that’s the case, I get it and I am in :) .

Otherwise, if you need to pay them, please man/woman up to me. You truly are not welcome here . Even if you match the payment (which you should) and send to me (I will send to charity), you are just polluting my work.

I must admit that I am biased. I have a bone to pick. I can’t stand their content and the programming leaders are smug. They live in a bubble. You can’t fully blame them. Cramer has made them feel smart. They are as Letterman calls ‘pinheads’. They have been printing money for years and they are cocky. God bless them for thinking it’s because they have something useful.

Rupert will put an end to the crap starting late this year. Cramer will leave too. Fast Money is wildly popular (deservedly so for now, but cheesy in it’s overproduction), but it’s a bull market and even I am popular these days.

I repeat, I have a bone to pick. Free yourself and just turn off the TV. Trader Mike, Barry, FLY, Fred, Maoxian and the rest of my blogroll is plenty for you to make major money. Don’t be suckered.

PS – Obviously some talented people at the network so this is more a rip on their overall product and attitude.

CNBC and Vegas….More in Common every day.

So the gambling is underway and the Digg like traffic to CNBleedC.com is onnnn according to the talking heads.

I think we should be helping the FLY with any great stock ideas as he is in the early lead and plans to do great things with the proceeds (and I quote):

Finally, “The Fly” is well on his way to win the CNBC jackpot, being long MIDD, +10 today (I keep some stocks secret, hatfuckers).

As promised, when I win, the proceeds will go towards ad space in Times Square, which will read: “CNBC sucks balls.”

Actiually, they should buy Digg and just run these contests monthly. I mean why get half pregnant CNBC? Just go for it. Move the headquarters of CNBC to Nevada as well. Save the taxes and get the dancing girls.

CNBC Gambleathon

Seems fitting that after a 700 plus point Dow decline that CNBC would launch their “Win $1 million portfolio” contest.

The contest is ‘perfect’ because it encourages you to make the biggest craziest bet you can so you have a shot of winning over the next lunatic.

If they ran POKER during market hours, people would learn more about money management.

Definately good for ratings though.

Naughty behaviour by Maria Bartiromo…MariaGate?

Michael Lewis does his best to summarize the recent sex scandal at Citibank . Nice internal controls.

I am so out of the TV loop that I have not seen this broohaha until now. Micheal is a great financial story writer so I am caught up quick.

Here is what the New York Times has reported . Here is my friend Eddie’s take .

Squawk Box if CNBC had BALLS!

If CNBC had any clue – they don’t – they would hire FLY to run Squawk Box. Bob Pisani would mysteriously disappear and Mark Haines would be retired early. Those two “reporter guys” would have morning cage fights in the distance.

Here is how the morning call should have gone today if my man FLY was in charge:

Sector Spotlight: Biotech
Due to recent stock market success, “The Fly” has decided to travel throughout Manhattan, in his stretch limousine (of course!), and flick quarters at people. Also, I bought my servant/trader a new hat and gloves. He is now required to wear white gloves, when opening the limousine door for me.

So far, today’s trading looks like cold vomit stew. The buyers must be out, buying new fur coats or some shit. And, the sellers are getting giddy– taking down almost every sector. Moreover, it’s worth noting, the Homebuilder and Steel stocks are getting “machine gunned.”

However, there are some pockets of strength, particularly in Gold and Biotech.

Personally, I fucking hate Biotech stocks. They are like little time bombs, waiting to blow your arms off– a la FDA denial. Seriously, one needs balls of titanium to play the sector in size.

The only drug stocks I own are DNA, FRX, GILD, GERN and PFE.

Finally, I despise the action in the Semi’s. I spit on them. Moreover, I made a mistake– covering my WFR short position yesterday. Nonetheless, I have faith in the asshole dip buyers ability to steam roll the sellers. Hence, I remain ridiculously bullish.

NOTE: On the back of great numbers, SINA is on fucking fire. Perhaps, the buying bonanza will spill over into PCNTF, SIFY, REDF, SOHU, TOMO and IIJI. Perhaps.

NOTE II: I feel something good will happen to MVIS soon. Call me a fucktarded asshat if you must, but I am putting my balls on the line here @ $3.36. It’s going higher.

The following Biotech/Drug stocks have mojo:

ALKS +8%
BDSI +7.8%
ACOR +5.9%
AFFX +5.5%
ACL +4.2%

Yes, it would be a short show, but it would make you money and leave time for Sports and Comedy Central and stuff you could sell ads against.

That’s how a network that gave a shit about reporting would do it. If they come to me to run FOX, FLY is my first hire. His servant comes next :) .

Not very hard.
