Early Pump Fades As Stocks Resume Slide
Overnight weakness on the back of disappointment in the BoJ and PBOC was ignored entirely in the few minutes into and past the US open this morning. Perhaps it was the IMF's outlook? Perhaps it was just algos desperate to get back to VWAP to enable institutional sellers out? Whatever it was, the insta-vert-ramp in stocks at the open - entirely disconnecting from bonds, FX carry, and credit - has now reversed. Biotech's early 0.6% gain, gone. S&P's early 5 point rally, gone... and JPY crosses are no help at all as USDJPY tests 102 lows...
WTF moment of the day at the open...
And Biotechs gave it all back...

good.
If I were a fiduciarily responsible pension fund I'd be selling to the PPT at every opportunity.
who do ya think is buyin' this crap........distribute to the PPT
Pump harder!
Maybe they should try jerking instead of pumping?
Just a thought.
snort some nazcrack and call me in the morning
I get it ...ripping the faces off the BTFD muppets
Perhaps with all the anti HFT crap going on right now the momentum algos have been turned off for the moment. As if trying to prove that they aren't the cause for the market shenanigans.
It is amazing to see the momo stocks not get their daily 5% pop to the upside for no particular reason. I'd say sanity is returning but I know better.
The HFT manipulators will say they're sorry and it won't happen again, and then SODA will pop 38% the next day.
I wonder what tickers are close to whatever Alibaba will trade with? Should be good for an easy profit when we get near the day that stock finally trades.
circuitry is confused, as overwelmed with sales and not programed to short and long in same pulse.
If we got all the facebook and twitter crowd to start a massive "like" campaign supporting "BOYCOT THE STOCK MARKET FOR A WEEK" or "WITHDRAW MONEY FROM TBTF BANKS WEEK" or "NO FRUGAL SHOPPING FOR 5 DAYS UNTIL CREDIT CARD INTEREST RATES ARE CAPPED AT X % WEEK" or "GO 100% INTO CASH ON YOUR 401K TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS WEEK", then we might get something...
done all that and moar:)
That would be like asking people to skip McDonald's for a week, or Walmart.
Or, if you're in a higher real income bracket, Outback Steakhouse and Macy's.
AUD and JPY getting pumped all day from USD weakness. Is Mr Yellen on holiday?
"No one saw this coming...."
Ahhhhh....I've been waiting for these days for so long. The algos are desperately trying to start ignition and give us liftoff...only to be met with real, honest to goodness sellers
Shit, I'm so scared and confused. Please Jim Cramer to tell me what to do.
Buy Bear Stearns. Boo yah!
Feds implementing all tools to keep this thing from going in the ditch: QE POMO, PPT, Circuit Breakers, HFT "crackdown", Kill bankers, start wars, police state, IMF, NSA, HAARP, accounting rule chages, "Stress Tests", Fake News/MSM, The Voice, Ft.Hood, Taco Bell breakfast, free internet porn, Chris Christie, legalized pot, fluoride, DQ Blizzard in a cone, Miley Cyrus, Flight MH370 circus, ...
So true...
what happened to Miley Cyrus? did i miss something?
lift off, mission control engines cut, mayday mayday mayday we are going to crash and burn.
PPT seems to be working ok, not sure what you're all talking about...
dollar demise with a fight. what to do when the rest of the world says enuf. ha, best to get those dollas in something phyzz and soooooooooooooooon....
It's dog doggy dog life brother, a doggy dog life....Now, let them eat each other.
Memo to self: buy more popcorn...Even better show coming tomorrow. There's been a talk about a couple of reports coming up.

Whatever the CNBC "Fast Money" jokers say , do the EXACT opposite
Ejaculatio Praecox much?
2nd time lucky? This latest pump seems to be working
You can pump a fairly large tire with a good bicycle pump but the tires are getting larger with higher pressure in them. Soon they'll be facing the equivalent of a four foot diameter 100 pound pressure aircraft tire that will launch their pump through the wall when they try to hook it up.
Still no rise on the vxx?
