S&P Tumbles, Gives Up All Post-Yellen Gains

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Once European markets closed, US equity markets gave up any correlation with JPY crosses and began to fade. After bouncing off early Nasdaq-Biotech-driven lows, a ramp of AUDJPY saved the European close but that was it. There does not appear to be any news catalyst to drive this dump as Quad-witching pumps are unwound. The S&P 500 and Russell 2000 jooin the Trannies and Nasdaq in the red from the FOMC statement.

 

Stocks now red post -FOMC...

 

 

As The European close appears to have been the tipping point...

 

VIX is rolling back higher (inverted below) and catching up with stocks drop...

 

As the yield curve continues to collapse...

Still waiting for it to 'plunge', so it can get 'slammed', and then 'monkey-hammered', so that we can BTFD on a 'spike'.

@deagle44

It may as well be up 15,000%.  The average person is in far worse shape than 2009, but at least the 0.01% are hamming it up nicely in their collective Maseratis.

ZH has been a contrary indicator since this website came online.

I fail to understand how some people do not realize this.

When ZH gets bullish, that is when the big crash comes.

If you are waiting for ZH to become bullish, don't hold your breath.  And as far as the big crash, we've already crashed and stayed there (in gold terms).  If you were looking for reality to be revealed in government-issued, government-manipulated fiat currency, well, there's one of you born every minute.

to be fair Europe had been selling off all day and were only draged positive by the massive US open and the VISA save the day skyrocket,

at the close European futures resumed selling, I think in reality the US futures followed on this occassion, take that VISA spike out and the US Indexes were already selling off...do we have a Yellen revisited Friday close?

Very unlikely as i cannot remember the last time a Friday was red...then again if this gains the momentum of Wednesday...and all European futures are still falling the DAX has already lost 50 from the close, FTSEMIB 160 and the CAC 35

that's called "honesty" not fairness. Only an idiot can't see how bad not only the economic impact of a Russian UNPROVOKED AGGRESSION on the People of Crimea is on Europe is...but how "doubling down" on a Sanctions Regime is the worst possible outcome.

You'll be looking at 40% unemployment as "The German economic growth engine" simply fails.

It's ok, all's well.  Even though the deficit, the reduction of which was the justification for the FED taper, has been under-reported and is catastrophically higher than anticipated, and even though the workforce numbers are approaching what they were back in the days of stay-at-home moms, and even though gas and food prices are through the fucking roof, in spite of no inflation, Auntie Janet has it all under control, and it will be something like um, you know, 6 months maybe, after QE ends before they start raising rates.

Looks like thePPT is busy with the dollar index,not stawks.

Don't count on them.Its apparent they can only levitate one or the other,not

both at the same time.

I hope you're ready for the Bank Nationalizations "Winston." They will limit your cash withdrawals to probably no more than 500 euro's...a week.

Obviously this might "force the City's hand" limiting withdrawals to 1000 pounds along the same time frame.

Its a geo political move as much an econimic one when put in to the context of everything now

Don't know.    China as been collasping for 5+ years now, yet...  still going strong.  

As somebody on here posted yesterday (I think).   The yuan is the "reserve currency" for 25% of the world's population.  

That's gotta be worth something.
