Hmm.. don’t like it, but I think this is a good observation.

Yep.

Also agree with SDR and Gary.

IMHO, this was a real event, and the PPT intervened to prop things up so they could trot out the fairy tale about the “fat-fingered trader.” I laughed when they started making that claim.

The next year should be interesting.

i dont know anything, but volatility has been way way down over a lengthy period of time. one substantial jump doesnt erase the longterm volatility decrease. it’s justa bet that things are going to get nutty shortly. impossible to time of course, but today was a little odd to say the least.

so if there were an aberrant 10% leap up, would there be a call for an investigation? Or would officials be cheering the recovery? i don’t see why selling is panicked but buying is a sign of health. it’s not just computers, right? someone is betting actual money on their computers. let them get wiped out. the market is so ridiculous it’s difficult to see how it can be taken as a serious place to invest money. let me get this straight. machines with programs know what to do–they’re so smart companies will bet billions that they can trade just right and make lots of dough.. people finance the machines to do their thinking for them because the machines are so smart. except sometimes they jump off a cliff. that’s “not real”, that should be a do-over or something? but if they buy in sucha way that everything keeps increasing, that’s good.

this is so retarded that i am having difficulty even pondering this.

I think you may be correct. Fear is back and whether or not there was a “fat finger” is irrelevant at this point. The damage is done.

Greece burning and oil covered turtles do not help one bit, either.
