Steve Grasso Gives Caruso-Cabrera The HFT Smackdown. Hilarity Ensues

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Do you see what happens Larry when a CNBC anchor and a trader discuss a concept that is not prominently featured every day on Page 6? The punchline from Steve Grasso: "Michelle, I love you despite not having common sense on this issue." 4 out of 5 moronic bloggers would certianly not be so generous as to add the the last qualifier. But yes, when even people MCC, whose "talents" are elsewhere, become trading pundits, you know the end of the trading world is nigh.

“By definition, 50% of the people out there are below average intelligence… so all you need is something that appeals to idiots and one smart person having an off day to get into office. Our government reflects this.”

Rule 1. Act like everybody is a idiot and has the IQ of a 13 year old retard child

Rule 2. Whenever shit hits the fan, don't be there.

Rule 3. Whenever shit points in your direction, promote a idiot and put him in charge of the shit.

This sums up about 5 MBA courses and can make you become a bigshot in any mayor company. :)

First it was Dubya and the religious right, and now it's Palin and the teabaggers.

As long as you aim to get the 25% lowest denominator with three word slogans and ban gay marriage every two years, you can get elected by "flyover country" every time!

Not that I disagree with you entirely, but you seem to be a little one sided in your derision.  I recall unrest in Detroit several months ago when it was believed that "stimulus" money was being handed out in cash, first come, first served.  When a woman was asked by a reporter why she was there, her response was: "To get me sum money."  Pressed by the reporter as to the source of the money, the responses were, "Obama money", and "from his stash." 

And you are pissed at "teabaggers"?  Try to drop the partisan crap, and call shenanigans WHEREVER it's due.

Congrats... not trying to be negative at all but, while gold had a great day (up 2.5%), my Sprott Precious Mineral Fund is up 6%. IMO, serious gold investors should have at least some (25 - 50%) mining stocks to get the leverage they provide on the long climb up the "Yellow Brick Road."

How does 1200 count as a breakout? 3000 would be interesting.

As for your house, it won't hit bottom value until mid-2012. You'll then be able to cash out a couple ounces and buy something for cash down the street, if you are into that sort of thing.

Who is this MCC?  Is she the new centerfold in Playboy's 3-D magazine?  :)

Playboy is too classy for that.  I imagine Penthouse....now that I think of it, is this the "Larry" implied by TD?

Right.  MCC as centerfold. We nipple connoisseurs need more transparency.

To save a buck the exchanges are doing their best to eliminate  human beings from getting in between the trades. The matrix is almost upon us.

Wow, I have the CD that is your avatar.  I love the Vandals, but I'd say I like their 90s stuff better.

Is that the CD with The Legend of Pat Brown on it?

"Pat Brown, tried to run the cops down, Pat Brown, ran 'em into the ground."  LOL

The problem with MCC is her style of debate - much like Gasparino's - is one of a flailing pugilist. No point is ever conceded or considered - ever - if it conflicts with her simple worldview of complex issues - yet she is so cocksure of her position that she doesn't even give the guest the courtesy of listening.

'Let me talk louder' is her response with smug interruptions and faux 'gotchas' when in fact, it is she, who looks positively ridiculous. Grasso wiped the floor with her - and was actually being nice because it was quite apparent to anyone who is involved in the market that she HAD NO IDEA what she was talking about with respect to market structure, how it works and gawd forbid some of the nuances of working in a fast market like that. Cluelessness of the first order

...but really separates her is her insistence that with enough forcefulness - enough brio, she can prove to everyone out there in TV land she is right because she said it LOUDEST and LAST.

She is truly awful and a lousy representative of someone who purports to be free markets all the time bla bla bla.

Well said, and pretty much sums up America (and perhaps the Western world) at this point. Actually knowing WTF you're talking about is vastly less important than looking good while saying it, and even makes you an object of contempt. Arrogance and ignorance are treated like the best combination since peanut butter met chocolate, or ass met hole.

Stargroves - Wow. That cuts straight to the marrow. Perfectly accurate and extremely well written.

She's as stupid and useless as a football bat.

I'll admit being partial to horse-faced chicks (call it a twisted fetish if you like), but yes, this is going too far. She should contrive to smile or laugh as much as possible, though, as she looks much more human when doing so.

Hey those Sarah Jess-equines will nag you until the end of your days...

The only thing you can do for some quiet and relief is stick a stallion sized cock down her throat... watch out for those big teeth though...

MCCs whole problem is that she thinks that just because her damn mouth is moving that she is saying something. I look forward to seeing her and all the other CNBS pump monkeys living in a large box under an overpass.

Hey, MCC, please just shut the hell up when the microphone is live.

More like, she thinks that, because she has a vagina, any inane drivel that spews out of her mouth has validity.

I thought it was supposed to be 2000 by June!  That's what the goldbugs in the ZH poll said LAST time it was at 1220.

Oh wait, it's almost June.  Better move your unrealistic target back a few months...

I'd say June 2011 should work...

Anybody notice how closely gold and the S&P have been tracking each other the past 1.5 years? Both bottomed out in the high 600's, both having - till today - breaking 1220's. Here's some scenarios I can imagine a couple-three years down the pike:

Gold 2000, S&P 2000

Gold 2000, S&P 1200

Gold 2000, S&P 600

Gold 1200, S&P 1200

Gold 1200, S&P 600

Gold 600, S&P 600

What I can't imagine - not till we get a new Volcker who'll blast the 10yr to 15% and stop this madness - is gold being any less than the S&P...

Paulson eyes housing rebound

"I think we have the basis for a strong economic recovery," the billionaire manager told investors on a conference call on Monday. "I think that we will continue to grow in excess of the estimates."

"If you don't own a home today, now is the time to buy one," Paulson said, adding that people may want to consider buying a second house or helping relatives buy one.

Poll:

1. Gumnut has a gun to his head. He agrees to speak the Party line in exchange for not being charged in the Goldman case.

2. He needs more chumps to bet against.

3. He's euphoric from his gains and is going to blow his brains out Jesse Livermore-style (figuratively or otherwise).

4. He's right and I've been sucked into an alternate reality in the last few minutes but am not aware of it yet because I haven't looked out the window and seen the purple sky, for instance.
