Hahahahaaaaa !…..'Not part of the tin foil hat crowd" ….indeed
I guarantee you its MANIPULATED!!…There is a hell of a lot MORE at stake here than a few big wigs at GS or LEH…To think that the market is "Left to normal market forces or chance" !, such thoughts are simply stupid. It is a matter of national security..and THAT is not left to chance !
Would you play in a game in Las Vegas if you KNEW or SUSPECTED it was rigged ?….Of course not.
"Something for nothing" mentality reigns supreme in America (and the world really) ……The entire thing is a SCAM
Look at "Leonard the Wonder Monkey" and see how he (the monkey with the rolodex stock picks) BEATS Wall Streets BEST traders year after year after year after year……And then you have the "Technical analysis" crowd, who have formulated a chart and cool sounding names for EVERYTHING that could possibly be measured in a stock and they STILL get creamed 90% of the time.
Why is it not illegal ? Who knows ?…
It IS the biggest game in town and People LOVE to gamble, so next time somebody tells you that they are "Investors" in the market you can laugh at their stupidity and choice of terms….Tell them they are GAMBLERS playing in a rigged game like it REALLY is….
After saying that, I must admit that I have made a LOT of money in the market from years gone by.
