And Now Market Tumbles, As News Of Ukraine Deaths Spook Algos
Despite the best efforts of the straight-line panic buying algos on a Tuesday, it seems flashing red headlines of dreadful escalations in Ukraine (more deaths), from Bloomberg:
- 11 REPORTED DEAD DURING UKRAINIAN OPERATION IN KRAMATORSK: RT
- UKRAINE GOVT: RUSSIAN 45TH AIRBORNE IN SLOVYANSK, KRAMATORSK
...and USDJPY tagging 102 again (of course) were enough to spark the manic idiocy of markets from buy-buy-buy to sell-it-all-Mortimer... So much for yesterday's "see it's all good now" ripfest... The Russell 2000 is back at yesterday's lows and NASDAQ is back under 4000.
Wondering why?
"Fun-durr-mentals"
However, there is still hope:
- RUSSIAN PM MEDVEDEV SAYS HE HOPES UKRAINE AUTHORITIES HAVE "ENOUGH BRAINS" TO PREVENT ESCALATION OF CONFLICT
If by Ukraine authorities he means the CIA, he is out of luck.

i nooooo!!! less debt slaves, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Kevin Henry: How do I sell somepin'? My keyboard has only one button “BUY”…
Looney
Hit the ESC button 3 times...
What a Fucking JOKE this all is. Excuse my French....
I didn't know that "JOKE" was French.
joke=blague
Bad news is back to being bad news...huh who would have guessed it?
"Ukraine Authorities"
There's an oxymoron if I ever saw one! lol
The hapless muppets in Kiev have no authority.
The whole show is being run from the Pentagon.
That's why the warmongering puppetmaster-in-chief, John Brennan, paid a visit to Kiev recently: -to pull some strings.
Ctrl Alt BUY sometimes works
Ukraine TV is reporting that Ukrainian forces have engaged the Russian 45th Airborne in Sloviansk.
Hold onto dem hats biatchez!
Do you have a link? I'm skeptical after the 2013 pics of Russian troops the junta put out as last week.
Aren't we supposed to buy at the first shots fired....oh well
....Putin/Russia will soon unleash its biggest secret weapon...."Eric Snowden and more secret NSA intel."
So with friday being a holiday, it's not 'actually' Tuesday. Algos may think it's Wednesday?
I'm so confused.
I'm half way expecting a release of a Brennan phone call with Brennan saying some very candid/stupid things.
Brennan has an assistant who knows how to operate a secure phone.
Sucks we can't thin out the douch-bags instead.....douch-bag
BTFD
(buy the fucking death)
Death, of course, being our number one growth industry.
The market potential is amazing....
This is by far the wierdest roller coaster ride I've ever seen.
this must be your first "market" crash. the next few days/weeks will be exciting.
no skin in the game except i live near a rather large city and have dollars. radiation does scare me...
I actually welcome whatever comes...life hasn't been too exciting lately
Yeah, who could possibly see this coming?
Sheesh.
They knew that deaths were coming. Hence the preemptive attack on gold earlier today.
I thinking exactly the same earlier.
There are no co-incidences, just conspiracies nowadays.
That little hump right there in the chart shows you exactly why I still sniff glue.
turnaround tuesday: check.
momo ignition algo rigged rally: check.
easy money FED policy: check.
markets go down? WTF!
i smell a ruskie/iranian/syrian cyber sneak attack...
Glad to see others are thinking same as me. Unfortunately we have been proved correct.
Blood moon market
Coincidence that this incident is kicking off the day after the first Blood Moon?
Reminds of 2009 when the DOW would open up 500 and close down 700 on the same day. Then it would repeat variations of that every day for a week.
Gold slammed lower before civil war started and is now climbing as civil war commences... sounds about like what they would do.
Since 2009, HFT technology has advanced rapidly. So the Fed is able to levitate markets far more effectively than in 2009. And slam gold down when needed in a microsecond. No buoyant stock market in the US means not enough money to sustain the empire of 900 US military bases in 130 countries:

The DOW losing 777 in a day is the purest form of irony I have ever seen
14:10 GMT:
A fighter jet has been spotted near the eastern Ukrainian city of Kramatorsk:
http://rt.com/news/eastern-ukraine-army-operation-680/
Su-25 Frogfoot, the poor man's A-10.
A-10 - best close air support aircraft ever.... the grunts friend...
@Cannon Fodder
Warthog!
Except for instances of friendly fire.
No more A-10s. Therefore, a good ground attack plane.
The A-10 was a comparatively simple aircraft. When they started designing it, they said, "Hmmm, we have this big-ass gun, and we want an aircraft that can take a beating and still get the pilot back home alive. Get to it!"

Dont watch RT, watch this:
http://live.russia.tv
I know for a fact Denial, USA is wonderful this time of year!!!
That is where the Fed is located, after all.....
I think the city limits of Denial encompass most of the country.
In the real world Gold should be rising faster than McCains erection on news of war starting
Instead, Gold is behaving like a jet that has McCain at the controls.
Can someone please release the real dogs of war now?
This foreplay is no longer stimulating.
Be careful what you wish for.TPTB look determined on WWIII this year, we just
don't know which of the many sparks will start it.
yeah I agree. this so not something you want to see "ramped up." does "no comment" mean we're just doing nothing...or does "no comment" mean we're going to war with Russia? I found the general consensus that "Putin needs to find an off ramp" dispositive.
Who needs a red line when you're just gonna start plinking Russians?
If we're not careful, it'll be a civil war. IMO, kicking a hot war off between the US and Russia would be cause for a civil war. A war with Russia would be based on lies, and it's better to take back our military instillations with our own blood than to let the Russians nuke the shit out of them. I'm not a fan of fallout.
Give that man another peace prize.
the algos aren't spooked, they just moved into the energy markets...they are alive and well rigging in CL, RB & HO
Time for another colorful metaphor from Obama.
Imagine things will get kind of rough when the Globalists come to steal everyone's money so they can fight their wars.
Good time to buy gold.
Good point. TPTB steal the money blame it on those guys over there, while doing the same to those guys over there. The sheep buy it and start killing each other over stupid shit as the TPTB sit back, place bets and watch the show. Works like a charm for them.
Note to TBTB: Fallout is a bitch, BITCHEZ!
Nothing spooked the algos. This is all opex witchcraft; the bucket shops are creating volatility to goose profits. Problem is, you can only "play" with dynamite for so long.
How long until Obama sends in the US 82nd Airborne?
No good volatility will go ungamed. Watch the ramp ups and downs today by the bots
Goldman Sachs was definately wrong about Ukraine being "transient".
Wait, isn't it Tuesday? My "Buy" calendar must be faulty.
But seriously, when pricing, surveillance, media and war are all handled by computer ... pretty much anyone can with access to the computers can tell them what to do. There dos not have to be a human being (homo sapien) between the direction and the outcome. The middle-personal is no longer needed and therefore the process is much more reliably carried out. Humans have a conscience and go against the wishes of the master. Machines do not and cannot.
Want to crash the markets? Press a button.
Want to smear your competition? Press a button.
Want to murder someone with a drone? Press a button.
The teeny-tiny volume of actual traders (people) in these markets must be SO thin, so volatile and so nervous that there is certain to be more volatility, crashes, spikes, flash crashes and stuff coming...
"Potemkin markets" was right..."The Truman Market"
The copmputers can squash all real trading volume if they want. Price is controlled by the Specialist and Market Maker computer programs. Whatever is done, is done for a purpose (not ours). There is no free market and no free market dynamics.
i bet maidan nazis are running them tanks on russian oil
Mr Putin just cut the oil and gas already
Frau hitler will piss her dirty panties
zee german business owners will crucify that nazi bitch
THE HEAT IS ON! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-mU-YSk32I
Pump it and dump it, that's the name of the game step rite up and place ya bets!
This is the BALLGAME for the market. I for the life of me could not understand how the markets could trade in terror of a Syria bombardment which is a fly compared to this Pegasus in Ukraine for the past few weeks. How they are not seeing the long term implications of this along with Russia and China commiting to end the USD Reserve Status along with a hot war along with unprecedented funny money printing lies and cheats by the Fed at every turn to not see 2014 was the year the fraud market came to end.
Do not get me wrong they are probably gonna try to fake it for another few weeks or maybe even 2 months but everything changed when the U.S. stuck it's nose in the Ukraine. OH and oil is above 103 right?
11 idiots, braindead sheeple who gave their lives for the geopolitical games of there masters.
There family can be "proud" that there sons gave there live for their country and for their "freedom"
Idiots !
sheeple will fight over anything.
Did you see the video footage over the weekend?
Some sheeple were willing to put their lives on the line over somebody else's grazing rights.
Its honorable for them to get shot to death in name of so called "freedom" alias get the shit taxed out of you and get pinned down to the ground and sucked empty, and there so called "country" which they dont own anyway.
Idiots !
Much safer better to do nothing but tap on your keyboard.
Your are bloody well right, good comment !
One of my Friend told me hes not worried cause he's in this for long term and it doesn't effects him at all.
No he's sane I think.
STOP!
Ramper time
Markets are off the lows now. You won't get a better opportunity this month to BTFD than now. Better take advantage and buy into the rally we will see for the rest of April. TSLA looks like a great dip to buy, great company but down from 265 to 190 over the past month, but God does that chart look ugly!
Yet another PERFECT ZH contrary indicator article.
I really should get back into day trading and use this site at my pivot point.
