Headline From The (Immediate) Future: 10 Share Block Moves Market By 50% (And Obama Praises Own Economic Policies) As 10 Year Yields -3%
Today's ES price volume presented without commentary. Well one: the 10 Year closed below 3%. Stocks closed at highs. The takeover of the market by the administration as we head into the midterms is now complete.

That's not 600k below the 5-day average volume is it? Tell me that average volume is at least a 30 day measure.
sorry mate - its a 20-day average...lol!!! (1.535mm contracts today vs 2.16mm average of last 20-days) and with 10Y at 2.9888%, I see ES maybe 7pts rich...but it's all good - FDX said stuff is better hopefully in the future (I guess they are expecting lower fuel costs to keep helping em out) ;-)
i am long, selling out everything tomorrow morning. this is weirding me out. completely freaking me out. one wrong word from the wrong person, and this goes into the ground.
May I?
SEEELLLLLLL!!!!!!
Now seriously - is anyone still suprised about this? Stop complaining and treat it as what it is - a nice shorting opportunity.
actually i'm making a nice buck on the AUD/JPY trade hedged with the AUD/USD...
I'll wait until August, thank you.
Agreed. I've been holding some long positions initiated at SPOO 1016 as a hedge to my net short exposure (which includes a load of AMZN, as well as some painfully underwater SKF), and am going to see what the morning action brings. Hoping for a pop, and will close my longs.
there may be more steam in this bubble, but the ether is getting mighty thin. Is an extra 5% worth exposure to 20+% downside?
rational entity: no
equity trader / politician: yes
OMFG LOL WTF?!
Anyone else have three different Cramer's staring at you via add space?
Yes. My usage of ZH has gone down 25% today thanks to seeing Cramer's mug all over it.
ZH has NO control over what ads appear on this site. That is google adsense.
Now, because one enjoys irony, one sugests that you should increase your use of ZH 250%, because nothing is more ironic than cramer, funding Tyler(s) work.
lol!
priceless, that.
I click on every add I see because I want him to be all he can be.
Why whats wrong with Cramer???? He seems like a nice guy..... :-) ahhaha that was a joke
As much as I hate Jim Cramer and think he is a complete douchebag, as highlighted by his "prison pussy" goatee, I think it is hilarious that Tyler can make money by selling ad space to the guy that he routinely ridicules on this site. I don't like looking at Cramer's picture, but I will only be pissed at Tyler if he starts hesitating to blow Cramer out of the water on his ridiculous recos.

If you want to see less Cramer ads, remove your cookies from your theStreet.com and cnbc.com visits.
Feel free to do a glossary search for Jim Cramer for our thoughts on that particular TV actor, and be amused when adsense context shows his ads. The same way it will show ally bank on all the posts where we share our true feelings for GMAC or whatever that bankrupt bank is called now.
Or you could really use this moment as a great "fuck you Cramer" moment. If everyone clicks on the ads, guess who gets money from whom ;)
Why is everyone taking shit about our leader and main Supporter and sponser Sir James Cramer? He may be listening.
I guess that explains why Jenna Jameson keeps popping up when I connect from my 'home' computer.
because your home computer was built by the SEC's IT administrators?
I wanna know how you got your adsense to pop up in a new window???
"TV actor."
BTW, the most expensive ad for cramer is the upper right ad's, usually.... Just saying, you don't want the man t lose money or anything, do you??
Click on the AD.
All the revenues (few cents worth) go towards ZeroHedge anyway. What's the downside?
Its the recover summer no?
Bernanke guaranteed QE2 last week guy's....hence this "market"
Why hasn't gold reacted as if QE2 is on it's way then. Even Fed said this today:
07-26 20:46: Fed's Plosser says sees no reason for Fed to further stimulate economy now
common friend, people were making the same comments you just did, $600 ago for AU........give it a minute.......I'm *NOT* buying that SPX has *ANY* strength though, at least not until a formal QE2 announcement, not that the then resultant surge would be "strength." Until that point, I'm actually shorting this, and any subesquent "strength."
gold has not reacted as the expiry is on Wednesday, and JPM -- in the complete absence of any regulator casting even a glance in the Comex market's direction -- is keeping an iron fist on activity there.
the max pain level at expiry is 1183. expect that price or slightly lower until Wednesday at 1:30
silver on the other hand.....despite the massive manipualtion, it now appears that JPM may be in serious trouble there as there is now simply not the amount of silver there at the Comex it seems to meet the delivery demands....
this could blow sky high at any moment....
anyone want to follow the action here should follow harvey organ's blog. he tracks the delivery & inventory numbers daily.
silver, it seems, will implode first.....and pretty damn dramatically ....
I just came in from running and I'm unwashed as well, working to reduce my mass, but dinner smells pretty good about now.
Serious now: does COMEX publish numbers on a) cash settlements, b) metal settlements when warranted, and (!) requested metal settlements that were instead done in cash?
Thanks,

My view of history is that JPM never gets in serious trouble--at least until the barbarians are truly at the gates. JPM and Federal government are blood brothers (pick your preferred analogy).
actually, his testimony and prepared remarks to the senate, i thought indicated that he did not want to do it. Of course the market reacts negatively and next day ben says what the market wants to hear to house. given the social mood against, apart from the banking community of course, i believe that things will have to get very dark before ben revs up his helicopter.

wave iii of (iii) of c of (2) of 3-circle. (v) of (2) complete at about 1140 or so. VIX should be <21 by then, and CPC < 0.7
that's when you short large.
Lots of fresh meat grabbed off the lows and dryhumped today.
LOL...
hey puss-puss, who's the one in the pink?
Robot Trader - who´s the one in pink ? Nice :=)
The blond has a little meat to her - I especially like those fingers pressing into her flesh.
Robo, I shudder to think what pictures you'll be posting when this thing goes...well, I have to say it...UGLY.

will someone please explain to me how one could theoretically manipulate the market using s&p futures? i understand how one could do so using say SPY as the fund actually holds the stocks of the s&p but i'm an amateur when it comes to futures...
Sure, that's easy:

But where to get the money?
Just issue 100s of Billions more in Debt than you need to pay down the Deficit. Use the surplus money:
http://www.gold-eagle.com/editorials_08/willie072210.html
to jack the stock markets by buying futures after hours:
http://www.zerohedge.com/article/three-month-flat-market-yesif-you-exclu...
And pray no one is paying close attention to where the money is coming from. But as we all know it turns out you can't fool all the people all the time:

ackem. might take me a couple of days to get through all of this but i appreciate your time.
TZA was unusally popular today as opposed to its inverse.
tyler, all... this article came across the wire, its a justification for the opposite position that this post implies... "We call it a barbell market in a workout phase-hedge against deflationary risk with Treasuries yet long equities to maintain exposure to economic and earnings growth that persists," John Stoltzfus, strategist at Ticonderoga Securities in New York, advised clients Friday. "At the end of the day, it's a workout market, and the bifurcation makes sense based on where we have been and what has been done to take us out of the crisis."

i call it the "ticking time bomb" market myself, but i am getting pie all over my face and am "bullets out" short until my next paycheck, lol!!!... i hate meltup days... my other hedge is a newly purchased springfield xd .40 and a $500 investment in blueberry bushes....
In other words John Stoltzfus is perfectly hedged and will make and lose exactly zero dollars at the end of the day. We hope, for his LPs' sake, he at least throws a damn good Christmas parties (and has a second lien on Goldman's elves) for that 2% on AUM he is collecting (the 20% will be a wash).
This mkt is for the nimblest of the nimble.. will chop you up like the slapper.

Hail the Telepromter and bring the Windex, whatever that means.
I predict the consumer confidence numbers will print 1 point above expectations and the MSM will spend the entire day on coverage of how consumer confidence is "perking up".
Or if it prints lower, it will get no coverage at all.
Or they could quote it higher and revise it next month.
That's how they do it traderjoe.
Bear Wedge.
Although I get the sense that's not a surprise to anyone here...
Robo,
Keep an eye on this puppy, breaking out on nice volume today:
And CREE is getting ready to make another move up:
One hot summer meltup coming right up!
i hope the RIGHT SHOULDER peaks by the end of this month
@Robo&Leo : You guys have really a dirty trader mind...:=)))
EURO buying support mentioned since June continues and further upside is expected.
