VIX Slammed As Dow Recovers Post-FOMC Losses; Everything Bought
We wondered earlier whether Kevin Henry would achieve his goal.. and he did. VIX is now sub-14 once again and thanks to a lift-off in EURJPY, stocks are surging. The Dow Industrials (and almost the Transports) have recovered all their post-FOMC losses in this reaction to the apparently more dovish minutes. Gold is maintaining gains. Bond markets ripped lower in yield and the USD is tumbling. The ammo, of course, for all this, is "most shorted" stocks which are spiking post-FOMC.
Will K-Hen send VIX under 14 today? Find out shortly

well that was easy!
USDJPY seems to be diverging a little bit.
Do you think "they" sold off the market over the last few days, so "they" could capitalize on the rally today?
The ammo, of course, for all this, is "most shorted" stocks which are spiking post-FOMC.
So, who's going short anyway? Some seriously hardcore masochists out there.
Just BTFD you fucking idiots!
Since the “money” is phony you can just use cow chips for houses and hotels on the Monopoly board..
there goes my short VIX put trade
This shit is just outright disgusting! What a circus this group has become!
Smell that wealth effect!
(It smells oddly like a nursing home.)
Talking about wealth effect.
Just aquired my seventh billionaire client last week, owns a major football team, and
doesn't use the' interwebs' to communicate.Has extensive land holdings in the Ukraine
and is a proud collector of PMs.Not interested in paper wealth.
I need to call up my billionaire clients and ask them how they feel about all this.
OK, all done.
Location,location, to paraphrase Willie Sutton.
Oh yeah! With my Zimbabwe dollars I'm a trillionaire a hundred times over bitchez!
Oh scripted market, I do tire of you're cliches. I'm almost more insulted that they try and make it appear legitmate, why not just let it go straight up? They've gone full retard everything else.
What do you do?
Part of my biz is mansion management.I can't call them houses really.
Circutalism.
just remember 1 thing: the stock "market" is all "they" have left. when it dives (it will), all their disgusting rapings will be revealed.
....revealed by who and to whom?
We will be the only ones who see it, just as we are the only ones who see it now. The worker bees anger will be misdirected at some idiot fall guy or institution (HFT) and the show will continue on. See the problem isn't the elite or the powers that be, the problem is the status quo and their NEED to be ignorant.
Ignorance has become a drug for the masses and when SHTF they will act with all the logic and reasoning ability of an addict suffering from withdrawals. Make the reality go away! I'll do anything you want! Fun times ahead...
Time to carefully watch how long this "pop" will last. How many hours before we get back to our 9:30 am level.
Is this the dead cat bounce?
yes, after a 2% drop from all time highs that dead cat is bouncing very nicely thank you. lmao
We need another showing of the BTFD cartoon. It's apparently not sinking in with everyone yet.
as requested bitchez!

"Tapering" you say? I call bullshit. Show me the balance sheet motherfuckers.

I can give you a preivew right now:
"insolvent with alot of numbers that have a "-" in front of them."
It's really awesome when you see -800% for the quarter revenue and it's trading positive. I don't know where these motherfuckers learned math, but I think they have stolen their trading model from this video.

Nothing like a good short squeeze to propel stocks higher. that is if there are any shorts left.
All because of some re-hashed statements from the "minutes" of a meeting held a fucking month ago? I can't take this idiocy anymore.
Have'nt you heard? The markets are rigged, thay always rally on FED Daze.
The $VIX algo slam is all that matters....apparently, now that the WTF Meter has gone up in smoke.
We don't care about our phony un-employment numbers, we will keep ZIRPING the Market as long as we want. ZIRP until it hurts then ZIRP some more.
Basically this seems to support the thesis of your Marc Fabers and Peter Schiffs--the fed will never end QE, and the markets move, right now--today specifically-- whether explicit or not, is predicated on such an understanding.
I've always believed that we are destroying the currency, but not until today did it seem so awesomely blatant. Do not expect any FED meeting or minutes to ever be anything resembling hawkish. When the systemc comes apart, they will just blame that old canard, "fiscal policy problems." yikes. buy gold!
so much for the "Fed isn't responsible for all the market's gains" meme. is there even anyone out there tool enough to make that claim at this point?
is there even anyone out there tool enough to make that claim at this point?
Shitloads, bro. Anyone charging an investment management fee for starters......
@5channel First Deputy Prime Minister of #Ukraine #Yarema : #Donetsk pro-#Russian invaders must give captured weapons by tomorrow 12 PM
Yeah touch ONE Ruskie and Putin will invade your ass in a New York minute.
Tell that bitch to be cool! Say, bitch, be cool!
Bitch! Be Cool!!!
Yea. Everything fixed now.
Anything to get the Mo Mo Stocks up again. to try and save the Hedge Funds. Now at least they have a higher price to sell into.
BtFD, for the win!
Back to new highs most likely.
Nasdaq is looking a bit top heavy-
Silver has not recovered for the day. PMs will slip some more. One or two more months into a new capitulation low as algos panic buy stawks. Then, and perhaps only then, a sharp rise back up. The COMEX must die...
I agree with the last sentence.
Please, nothing "dies" unless everyone with a paper claim demands physical.
Only if this happens, will any of the bullshit in the PM "market" change.
I agree with that except it wouldn't take anything near "everyone," just delivery demands to substantially exceed what they can deliver. Of course then they can force cash settlement but if they do that a few times, then they are dead as a credible market.
so that's a virtual boner for gold then! Nice chart.
Facebook up almost 6% today. Awww yeah bitches. I'll retire when I'm 70 instead of never!
So companies that have overpriced stock and should go down are the best longs to make money? We are so fucked!
Re: should go down
You are looking at "prices" in a moralistic way.
When dealing with reality morals are a handcap. In REAL reality, the price of something is based on the first law of bullshit:
X + bullshit = $ ^ bullshit (money to the power of bullshit)
The more bullshit the more money (price).
Now, which stocks ya gonna buy?
Today's USDX line in the sand appears to be 79.50.
SELL THAT SHIT SOO FAST, THAT IS A TRAP IF I EVER DID SEE ONE.
What a crock of shite this market is...and all European Indexes ripped up with it
Just obolish the VXX! who needs it anyway? Market will never correct again.............
Nikkei futures dragged up 250 points on this shit... Hong kong futures dragged up 200, basically you cannot short Europe , or Asia as the whole lot have to follow whatever these clowns do day after day, week after week
The FED has basically taken over. They own it all now.
Taper?? Get f*cking real - how will we ever know?
We cannot even audit the FED. If you ask to see the books (Ron Paul) you are labeled to anarchist and made fun of.
There will never be a taper - NEVER - but we will be told that there is.
I am sure the FED is looking out for all of us serf`s.
How much was given to foreign banks after the meltdown in 2009?
The answer is shocking.
BTFD pays out well again
