End is near, time of revenge is coming, a new society will emerge against exploitation, and will sweep clean mobsters, crooks, plutocrats, and other enemys of the people. Revolution!

Since the Fed is all about the most bizarre, delusional psychological social engineering of Joe - Six -Pack - one can understand why his first "hearing" is at 2pm - to Close. Then see how the "market" ( the barometer of the degree of social delusions) reacts. The following day- having fully incorporated the "Market" reaction - Bennie gets a second chance to tailor his pscho-social engineering messages mor precisely.
Did I get that right?

yeah - the Water questioning is exactly the moment when you realize why bennie gets paid the big bucks ( ie. to just sit there poker faced and not laugh).

Yesterdays selloff erased with 100,000 ES contracts, like magic. This is one rigged market. NY Fed pushes the SP futures Goldman and JP Morgan  piggy back. Gee they sure are smart.

Bank of Ireland, Allied Irish Said to Pass EU's Stress Tests

The punchline is that Allied Irish Bank[s] (at least) will probably get an extra government bailout anyway. Our dead-keen new financial regulator has decreed core capital of 8% by the end of the year. More details here. Note AIB's helping hand.
