Macro Weakness Sends Stocks Reeling, All Indices Red Post-MH17
Well that escalated quickly. Friday's micro (earnings-based) weakness has extended to today's macro weakness and removed any "ignore the geopolitics, just buy the dips"-exuberance. All US equity indices are once again below the levels pre-MH17 headlines with the Dow and Russell 2000 worst performers. It appears investors need some reassurance that Yellen's "price-equity" ratio is still 'fair'.

WW lll will not be a protracted event - hedge accordingly.
We need a speech from Obongo to lift the market1
I swear the market waits for ZH to proclaim it saw a bear. Then it double gains all the way to new record highs.
Looks like the DJIA hit its 50 DMA this morning and is bouncing a bit off it now.

The ZH bottom-calling streak continues. Almost to the minute this time.
Zerohedge articles are designed to make you lose fiat.
BTFD? im sure something will happen to justify a nice ramp up on tuesday and friday.
YEAH!!!
BUY MOAR!!
MAYBE THEY'LL BRING DOWN 2 PLANES NOW AT ONCE!!!
IMAGINE THE RALLY!!
Yellen Capital better get their shit together or I'm going to find another advisor. I understand investment requires a long-term focus, I'm buying the company's potential to build and grow, blah, blah, blah, but there comes a point when you have to say 'enough is enough, I've been holding this position for 3 days, I've given this company plenty of time to show what it can do, and still NOTHING. I guess these guys just don't have what it takes, time to move on'.
You know what your problem is? Your investment horizon is completely out of whack. Three days? I shift my money after three minutes without meaningful result. Any modern company worth its salt should be able to turn a profit for its investors within 180 seconds. You're never gonna make it with that hopelessly outdated long-term approach.
Well, we all have our styles. It sounds like you're more of a momentum trader, following the market trend, whereas I consider myself more of a value investor - looking for those undervalued companies, buying when there's 'blood in the streets' and then giving the company time to prove itself and holding on for the long term gains, even if it means I have to hold that position for 7 or 8 days. I think each strategy can be successful, you just have to have the discipline to stick with it.
You can't see it, but on my side of the screen, I'm have a good chuckle.
The stock market is going to give every bit of QE gains back, just like Japan did, every time.
True, but when has been the Q from the beginning. Think I will need to a much bigger screen to watch the huge plunge.
Old yeller is letting a few shorts get their hopes up and hop on board so she can jam this thing higher at their expense.
wolves of wall street, hedge fund hyena, randroids, zionists, and cockroaches GET UNDERGROUND NOW.
The "market" can't look too uniform/efficient, oh wait.
buy the fucking dip
If old Yeller comes out this week singing "sunshine on my shoulders" and telling us how great everything is you better run for the hills. The false flag is likely on...
Stack it and rack it.
Apple is hanging in there.
That is due to the email sent out that said that if you sell apple stock, all the nude pics on your phone (that you thought were secure) will be uploaded to the web.
pods
Following the Federal Reserve's engineered Japanese economy. Where bailout everything and a dead zombie economy.
The US has to add in the costs of EBT cards, welfare, housing, health and education cost for all the millions of illegals pouring into the US now. Something Japan didn't have.
Yellen's P/E is still fair lol.
Watch for the trap, the Feds know better than that
Oh whatever. BTFD Tuesday™ is less than 24 hours away.
Oh whatever. BTFD Tuesday™ is less than 24 hours away.
And one day it won't be, unless you believe the FED can do this for 100 years. Inflation will be their ultimate undoing. You can't overcome inflation by printing FED notes
They are going to overcome inflation by confiscating bank accounts.
Wasn't the article linked (Bloomberg?) this morning something about the average BTFD period being 1.4 days, or something along those lines? So pretty soon a 30 minute pullback is the dip...at some point you would think that this system breaks and the dip is never bought (gasp, the horror).
STFD = sell the fucking dip
Current market = loose 150+ on the DOW, rebound by 2:30pm to postive territory.
That would be the only fair thing to do.
How about "cash for stocks"?
I see that the dip is now being fucking bought, though.
I have a feeling the meaning of "bought" is very subjective at this point.
ZH posts the low... again.
ZH post time 10:12
Low of the day 10:20
missed it by <...> much.
what the fuck is it with the last hour of trading in London that causes the markets to rocket to the upside EVERY fucking day???????????????????
Well we can rule out price fixing and manipulation because no one would do something like that.
Tea tax is repealed promptly at that time daily.
No big deal. It's not like the entire economy, every debt and every funded and unfunded pension liability is hanging on a thread and is only supported by an inflated bubble in the stock markets. Otherwise, this would be a big deal.
Gonna be a hard rain when that bitch fails.
Buy the dip. We'll be at new record highs by EoD Tuesday.
And the President, having fulfilled the job for which his handlers hired him, now spends his days on the golf course, and his evenings hobnobbing it with the beautiful people at expensive social gatherings.
Bravo! We'll done sir!
I walked in from the store after 10 ish and we were down .50 percent on the NASDAQ futures, I look at 1130 and we've just gone positive. Figured it would be green before noon.
Inversions, NPR did a great audio show today.

Since Global Corporations have got everything they wanted
1) Free Trade with few Tariffs on imports to US
2) 12%-14% Corporate Tax Rate
3) Rights to Lobby & Contribute as much money as they want to US Congressional Campaigns
4) Foreign Lobbyists
5) Banker Control of Treasury, Executive Branch & Federal Reserve
6) Any Financial Scheme they want including Tax Havens, Tax Deferred Wages, Shell Companies,
7) No Real Blow back from Jobless or Lay Offs
8) Privatization of many government or military functions, Utilities, War, Soldiers, Armies (PMCs)
9) No Price controls even on Drug Prices

Think about it, if Drug Companies go overseas thus lowering US Federal Tax Revenue... it should follow that US Banks for Lower Ratings for Federal Government AND Lower Value of US Dollar based on eroding tax revenue.
Like Killing the Golden Goose in Slow Motion.
Like they Killed our Manufacturing and Turned us into Europe, except Europe probably has more Tariffs and Price Controls (like on Drugs). Giant Sucking Sounds from Whining/Wimpy Transnational Corporations.
