Dow Drops 1500 Points In 3 Weeks, Nasdaq Enters 'Correction' As VIX Breaks 30
From 17,350 intraday highs "proving the recovery is here," we are 1500 points down just 3 weeks later. The Nasdaq just fell 10.5% from its highs, officially in correction. VIX broke above 30. Perhaps, just perhaps, the gap to fundamentals is finally about to be filled...
Dow ugly...

Nasdaq in correction...
VIX breaks above 30..

I love it as there is $$$ to be made...
what difference does it make?
Dugly..
May I have some more?
Watch out, Kevin is back from lunch. Paper gold going back down, time to rally...
Is shit finally getting real? Or temporary compression of fantasy/reality?
Who could have seen this coming?
ZH'ers feeling good. Finally, after years of talk it's show time.
used to use an API 2500 to compress...now I just use the plug
I bet it ends up unchanged for the day, just for shits and giggles.
You can already see the Fed has hit the panic button and is banging up this market hard.
You can even see the Fed's hand with the volume spikes at 2:01, 2:07 and 2:15. Bang that shit up, Kevin!
Now 2:22, 2:28, 2:35, 2:44. Keep hittin' it Kevin!
Like a screen door in a hurricane.
It is October!

yes, fuck the VIX, FAZ me, FAZ me all night long...
As much as I want to embrace this sell off, my mind keeps saying watch for the ramp.
You watch for the ramp; I'll watch our 6; and I get the PKM, okay ?
Gotcha. I guess some people do not like me mentioning ramp. Guess it rains on their parade. But it is the truth. Assholes been doing this for years. Hell when a hedge fund is named 3:30 ramp capital, the game played is known to everyone as BTFD.
FAZ me, make me feel better; FAZ me, put on your black leather . . .
With this much red pouring out I think the markets should be quarantined for 21 days or so.

Cool Hand Conax

Sure hope someone is charging the paddles for all the muppets getting run over today.
Lotsa fat fingers out there today.

FROM BTFD TO GTFO
Enjoy
We are closer to the beginning of this than the end of it.
Listen Badger.
All part of the show. "Look everyone, it really is a "REAL" market. Now everyone jump in and trade it".
Yea Ok. Yawn.
TVIX!

Still "overbought", credit tells me so.
Whoa; the S&P is falling vertically making new lows for the day; ugly shit there.
I'm loving it as I'm long vxx... Been as interesting few days to say the least...
I's an ill wind indeed, that blows no man some good. Get it while the gettins good.
Long SPXS. Got in at 27, a little early, rode it down to mid 24, but I'm sitting pretty now. Still scared of a nice Friday ramp though
And just think, EKM needs to see that in 3 straight days to be convinced !!
So other than this, and Ebola, and the war we're losing against ISIS in the middle east, how did you like the play, Mrs. Lincoln?
Cut that out ! it only hurts when I laugh.

Any chance my dream comes true that BOA, Wells and Citi all go bankrupt ??
No chance. They print their own money as well as launder heroin and cocaine proceeds.

Quick, its been a while, does anyone know how to play these TVIX VIXY ETNs?
I am Jacks smirking revenge
So I guess now we know. Queue the falsified bls statistics!
HELP, YELLEN
And still it is easy to sell. Where are the predicted clogged exits?
They're just milling around the exits; the building isn't on fire yet... just smokin'.
Hang on and watch.
Remember the old adage for every seller there is a buyer.
A whole bunch of folks are holding shorts they have to cover.
The 3:00 margin calls will be epic!
OH! THE HUMANITY!
I LOVE HOW THE MSM PRETENDS ITS DUE TO ISIS ( WHICH HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MONTHS) SLOWDOWN IN EUROPE ( HAS BEEN IN DEPRESSION FOR YEARS) SLOWDOWN IN ASIA ( SEE EUROPE) YET THE ONE FUCKING REASON THESE FUCKS FORGET TO MENTION AS TO WHY THE ''MARKETS'' R TANKING IS BECAUSE THE FUCKING FED, WHICH HAS CONTROLLED THE ''MARKETS'' 100 PERCENT SINCE THE CRISIS IN 08-09 IS FINALLY TAKING AWAY QE, FOR NOW AT LEAST.
SUCK IT U FUCKING BANKERS, DIE DIE DIE
yeah that little earring wearing fuck Zack Karabell was just on CNBS "So, like, everyone knew about all this stuff weeks ago, so, I don't really...like, get it, so, umm... it's like some weird market stuff "
maybe the most bullish asshole ever to appear on CNBs?
Drinking Guinness ordered a curry watching CNBC what a Wednesday!

I love the smell of Marketwatch crashing in the afternoon
Hey, I love the smell of margin calls in the morning.
Do margin calls smell like sweat, fear, shame and piss? That's about what it smells like to me.
Wait shame? What am I thinking? These people have no shame. It must be COOOCAAAAINE!

With each new case of ebola in the US, you can expect the plunge to continue.
www.traderzoo.mobi
in 2008 i was shocked to see how soon they intervened. in my view the markets were not in trouble, but of course a few banks and AIG were about ready to snap (or so the story goes?) the new normal is to implement emergency measures sooner rather than later. so right now they're probably trying to figure out something that will allow them to do that. bad news always comes out of friday after the close, but the fix is put in before the markets open on monday. so we drop to 15K maybe, after the close some rumors about bank solvency and stress tests, the fix is in by monday morning, the various parties given new monopoly money, and the market gets back to 16 by the middle of the week, rinse and repeat.
qe 4 next week, williams has already primed that pump.
nope. won't happen
and even if they could ... they wouldn't. Too close to election and any move would be seen as political.

It only becomes serious when bankers and traders start jumping.
Jump muthafuckas jump.

Do it!
Heard a great joke this week and it kinda reminded me of the "market" , the fed and wall steet.
Cabbie picks up a nun who's heading uptown to see a sick friend. She can't help notice the cab driver constantly staring at her in the mirror. She asks the man, "my child is there something the matter?"
As the cabbie stops at a light he says to the nun, "i want to tell you but i'm afraid i'll offend you."
The nun replies, "my child I have seen and heard many things in my life. I do not think you could say anything that would bother my sensibilities."
The cabbie says, "well it's always been my fantasy to kiss a nun."
She said, "thats not that bad but i require two things. You have to be unmarried and catholic."
Cabbie says, "not only am i unmarried but i'm also catholic."
The nun says, "fine. pull in this alley and I'll give you a kiss."
The nun gives the guy a kiss that would make a prostitute blush and had him almost dazed. Suddenly the drivers joy turns to sadness and he begins to cry.
"I there something wrong child?", says the nun.
The cabbie says, "sister i have a confession to make. I'm not single, I'm married. Not only that i'm not catholic, I'm jewish."
The nun smiles and says, "that's ok my child. I'm not a real nun and my name is Kevin. I'm on my way to a costume party."
Two groups pretending to be something that turn out to be the opposite of what you thought thet were.
His name was Janet Yellin/BenBernanke/Kevin Henry.

Sell SPY puts/ Buy VXX puts. Go on a nice vacation in a few months.
The strange irony is that if the market totaly disintegrates, wont this website go extinct?
No...because the lies and manipulation will continue. But it might go away when the Feds start censoring anyone who doesn't follow their phony narrative.
CNBC trying to claim jim cramer called the sell off. hahahahahaha PLEASE! No he didn't. He did nothing of the sort!
Hey, guys. Not to worry.
It's a 'controlled burn'. Stay put.
Don't try to time the market.
Uncle Lloyd is going to bring this baby down on a pillow.

Just hopped in the car to get gas. bloomberg radio was on. two f-ing bimbo nitwits were discussing how the recent plunge in stocks was because of ebola. no lie. bloomberg is now on par with cnbc. 1500 points over the last two weeks DUE TO EBOLA, which was just finally confirmed in TWO americans. Nope, nope. nothing to do with fundamentals being absolute shit, or europe in a recession, or china imploding. nope. ebola.
ya know it's funny...i've been reading this site for several years now and really haven't bothered to post until now...thought I'd share my findings.....I've never seen a more negative, non-wishful thinking group of traders/investors who have been completely wrong on the direction and duration of large macro events....it's truly amazing how wrong so many have been on zh.....if I had put 100k into fading the sentiment of this site, I'm sure I'd have a substantial multiple of that 100k...it's almost like as much as everyone who posts on zh kicks Gartman around (who deserves it admitedly since he speaks in such "certainties") is almost as bad or perhaps worse as their own calls for crash this, dump time that etc...have habitually been wrong!......
If you jump out a 100 story building, just because you have only fallen 75 floors and haven't splattered on the pavement doesn't mean everything is fine. So keep believing, but don't act surprised when you hit the cement.
