BORED? SHORT COAL! ~ Yanzhou Coal Mining Co. (ADR) (Public, NYSE:YZC) & Patriot Coal Corporation (Public, NYSE:PCX)

Last time we got bored we shorted oil for a few days, remember UNAPI!  (70%+ profit :-) ... We must be bored again.  Shorting coal stocks? ... wish us luck.   

this "trade" is our "fuck us, how did we miss this coal run" ... revenge energy hedge! 

 POTP Logic =  Short two $110 coal stocks (YZC & PCX), if our energy stocks go down, these should go down too ... thus making some money while losing some.  hedge on! 

p.s. JRCC & ANR have actually performed best over the past 3 months.  If coal does dip, we might buy.  How's that for a trade?  short YZC & PCX for a few days, then with the profits buy JRCC & ANR on the dip.

BOTD RECO'd SNCR about a week ago I recall.

Nice!.... Thanks for the heads up... SNCR has been a nice play so far. Insider buying and unusual option activity!

P.s. Two letters = H K
