Market Surges To New Highs On 4 Day Old News
US equity markets are surging back to pre-geopoltical risk highs on the back of a headline proclaiming Russia's military drill over...
- RUSSIAN MILITARY EXERCISES THAT WORRIED U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE HAVE BEEN FINISHED - RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTRY
- AIRCRAFT WHICH TOOK PART IN ASHULUK DRILLS RETURN TO PERMANENT BASES - RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTRY
The sheer idiocy of this move is that it was announced back on Monday that the drill would end Friday, just as was reported here and everywhere.
"more than 100 planes and helicopters would take part in the maneuvers from Monday until Friday in its central and western districts."
This is in no way a de-escalation - in fact, had Russia continued the exercise that would have been a clear provocation. But as usual Johnny 5 ignites momentum first, finds out he never actually read between the original lines, and asks questions never.
Treasury yields remain notably more concerned...

#not rigged
Once again there were significantly LARGE trade-size events in the BEAR ETFs a few minutes prior to the market move. That makes 3 times this week.
Where is the SEC?
12:42:30 -- Large Trade Size in SDS
13:14:00 -- Major sell-off begins
Probably a basket rebalancing, not every large print 'means something' FYI.
@ZP -- Perhaps, but in all 3 instances, the large print goes off a few minutes prior to the event. And if there were no correlation, then how com we don't get any large prints AFTER the event?
I ran out of tin-foil, so I may need to go to the grocery store before the day is over.
Nothing can keep down the money masters
It just occurred to me that everyone has been complaining about the low volatility in the market.
Maybe someone is doing something about that problem? </sarc>
Not everything is a ZOG plot. There were lots of people short (myself included) who were going into this with downside protection on.
Bob Pissonmee said it is all about the geopolitcal news line. You are right, there are many shorts.
That's how they melt "up" the markets, burning shorts. The only reason they let it go down is because
they could not find anymore suckers to buy in. The ZOG controls all, in either direction and when.
My favorite line, "Nobody can time the market". Do we need any more proof of who controls what.
We are seeing strong correlation across risk assets and further compression of yields. It is therefore gh0atrider's recommendation that you buy Bitcoin.
Beep-boop-beep.
Can't prosecute a robot algo run by the big banksters.
Besides, the SEC works for Wall Street.
You get best intelligent comment for me. You know who and how.
Never forget, Goldman has that special software that changes algo output and in the wrong hands can manipulate markets.
They are having lunch with Obama
BTFATH
The market rallies on 4-Day old news about Russia, but does nothing when they hear that there's a new strain of Ebola that will have a negative impact on the economy.
Go figure
I keep hearing this word "Market" being thrown around, what is this word you speak of?
I understand the confusion. "Market" is an old deprecated term one rarely sees these days.
Middle English, probably from Continental Germanic; akin to Old Saxon markat marketplace, Old High German marc?t, both ultimately from Latin mercatus trade, marketplace, from mercari to trade, from merc-, merx merchandise
First Known Use: 12th century I do need to update my vocabularyEbola won't hurt the robot algos.
Skynet doesn't catch biological viruses.
Mabye because the Ebola scare is just that, a scare? Because, in reality, it won't affect the US and most of the rest of the world. You know, like mad cow was going to kill us all, SARS, avian flu, etc....
Why did you buy in to the media hype machine?
And the rebel leadership handoff was announced yesterday am. Efficient market and all.
I like how cnbc brings this corpse Art Cashman out to tell us the market went up because the market went up after the market went up.
The guy is just a blabbering invalid. The sh!t that comes out of his mouth is just plain embarassing. "its all about ukraine" ... funny, i didn't hear such emphasis on ukraine earlier in the week.....
Remind me again; what is CNBC?
Zerohedge is becoming main stream now
The very title of the post implies that "market" moves only on news.
but their point about "johnny 5" is that the computers were the only ones moving, being triggered by stale news.
I'm glad you see that as well, I've said that every time I see Art, gee, he's now here to tell us what happened and then to tell us the market might go up or down now.
"New Highs", wait, did we go past 17,000 again...?
I think they were referring to those young kids behind the school yard in Colorado.
guess that wiped out a few shorts Dow futures only up 268 points from the overnight low S&P just up 33, and of course that move just yanked the DAX futures that had broken KEY levels of 9000 AH striaght back up to 9067, rigged you can't win
Why what are you trying to win?
Selling opportunity
almost 40 handles since 5 am, batshit crazy
Maybe we took out ISIS trading cave?
They were all shorts
All these false flags can make one uneasy
Can't we just skip the dips and just BTFATH every day?
So what should have been a Black Friday becomes Green Friday , unreal
hmm i vaguely remember someone on here this am calling for a black friday. i'm guessing he is banging his head against something right now.
NO DISASSEMBLE JOHNNY 5!
Whatever you do don't interrupt Kelly and Michael with important breaking news:

All is well no need to worry...........Obumfuck has our backs! BULLISH! BTFD AND BTFATH that is all have a nice weekend!
Breaking NEWS!! Julius Caesar ASSASSINATED!!! BUY! BUY! The US Stock Market...backed by the full faith and credit by the US Governme....HEY! Wait a minute!
I am so sick and fucking tired of this nonsense day in and out... the complacency and upward bias..the bullshit..the lies...the propaganda... literally gives me TERRIBLE thoughts.
Dude, you need to embrace the bullshit. And, you must become one with your inner asshole.
If you "embrassed the bullshit" last 10 days or so.............you got creamed.
I just cut a smelly fart. Does that count?
Go with the flow
USA Friday's have been quite profitable for those of us that have faith in the fraud continuing
Monday Thursday Tuesday Friday Saturday.....does any day matter? UP!
This is pretty much what I would say the night before launching tanks over the border...
Looks like this morning was the capitulation, all ahead flank to 2000 on the S&P. Seeing action like this makes me expect some disastrous news this weekend. After the bell of course. And another big rally on Monday for no reason other than that 'the bad news is out and now priced in'.
seems like we need sovjet missiles in cuba again
why spend money building missiles in cuba when they can just fly bombers and fighters into our airspace? Puddin's no dummy. Save the money, AND kick the hornets nest.
New highs? How are you figuring that? Anytime any index is green it's a 'new high'?
Would the PPT please report to the @200 day avg. ASAP.
Maybe this got leaked early.
18:30 CNY Chinese CPI (YoY) 2.3% 2.3%
18:30 CNY Chinese CPI (MoM) 0.1% -0.1%
18:30 CNY Chinese PPI (YoY) -0.9% -1.1%
No big surprise. The ministry of propaganda issues statements and the ministry of finance drives the markets up. Fascism at its finest
When Russia Tweets, Markets move !
hmmmm, now if only they knew, eh... Good job they're honest enough to not exploit news releases, markets and er, money.
I been telling youz guyz for weeks, Yellen must be watching the same kind of charts I am, Dow is now on the 200ma and the intermediate-term trend and volatility indicators are now on neutral, Fed had to bump the Dow today to keep it from going negative.

What many are overlooking is that Pootin and Obumma have a golf holiday coming up next week and they needed to clean their plates!
u would think there are no fucking jackass dumb enough to want to fucking put money into rigged piece of shit market going into a weekend with so many fucking conflicts going on around the world, yet sure enough, here we are on a fucking friday and this shit all the sudden surges to the highs of the days and wipes out all of the losses from the previous 2 days.
i dont think the ''market'' should be down due to iraq, it should be fucking down significantly because we are in a fucking recession soon to become depression
Whats the over / under yellen the white haired gremlin has a stroke this weekend?
Since when does non-continuance constitute a "de-escalation"? This is just further evidence that central bankers have created a culture on Wall St of dismissing risk!
Apparently Friday IS the new Tuesday. Wish I got insider trader memo.
really how can Brent close down $2 from the HOD with all this shit going on, everything is fucking rigged, Gold also down, Silver also down just total manipulation across fucking everything
Will somebody please pull up a chart for the S&P and DOW! The market has been way oversold on the hourly charts all week. Just a lot of technical short-covering to old news....
Hmmm...Putin has been quiet today...could he be waiting till after the close before any comments?
no respite all day and still rising, what a Pig of a day
Lewis Carroll on snowman blotter.
i traded the zero hedge effect today. first article that went out - i bought SDS puts. Just sold them for a hefty profit.
forget about t&a, all you need to do is buy when zero hedge puts out it's market commentary and sell end-of-day.
as good, if not better than the reliable USD/JPY carry trade.
Thanks Zero!
no profit taking going into the close whatsoever? really going out at the high of the days on a Friday with the possibility of anything going tits up this Weekend How rigged is that, squeeze to the closing print
...and like magic the Nikkei regains 15000 at the close, no script here today.
They done gone 'n skeered 'em selves.
