Humpday Humor? Blame The Moon
As market prognosticators search for something to pin the recent weakness on (Ebola panic, macro data weakness, global growth scare, M&A boom over, fund liquidations, oil crash.. and so on), there is one much larger driver of hysteria that is missing from this list... The Moon and the madness of crowds.
While perhaps a little 'out there' the coincidence of full moon's major gravitational impacts and turning points in stock market volatility is remarkable...
Of course, the surge in volatility also coincides with the end of QE (in seasonally-painful October no less) as the gap between reality and market perception finally becomes clear...

At least the Royals are going to the World Series.
How are NFLX-related margin calls going to hit markets? Anyone think it could go below $300 tomorrow?
Don't blame it - NUKE it!

How's about forgetting the placing of blame except for the guy who is supposedly in charge? That's who's supposed to take it up the angina. So, let's put the finger where it belongs.
Time to cut the red/blue, etc.
The shit show has to be called out for what it is, led by......
If Chaney were still about, he'd of had the whole country in a 21 day quarantine, for starters.
Lon? ;-)
So let's see if I get this right...
VIX and Full Moons are highly positively correlated as are Werewolve sightings and Full Moons. And since all werewolves must be absent from work during full moons...
This can only mean that the PPT at the Fed is composed entirely of werewolves!!! ...
Come to think of it.... I saw an awful lot of hair in Janet Yellens Shower Drain the other night.
I don't even want to know...
Uh oh. Turns out there MAY BE STILL WMD in Iraq with IS Soldiers that may know where to look for them....
NYT Story:
From 2004 to 2011, American and American-trained Iraqi troops repeatedly encountered, and on at least six occasions were wounded by, chemical weapons remaining from years earlier in Saddam Hussein’s rule.
In all, American troops secretly reported finding roughly 5,000 chemical warheads, shells or aviation bombs, according to interviews with dozens of participants, Iraqi and American officials, and heavily redacted intelligence documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

Of course they won't let the more than 17 Exposed service men get Treatment.
- DHS & FEMA get $60 Billion a year
- NIH gets $10 Billion a year
- We Spend $1 Trillion a year on MEDICARE/MEDICAID
- Catalog of Domestic Assistance funds Billion in Research
Where is this money going?
AND what about the rest of the Budget Spending on Spying, MIC? How much of it is hidden from us? Who gets this money?
AND why do Wall Street Banks get to Create unlimited amounts of Money... while we get .5% Interest on Savings Accounts and 1% on CDs
You want Revolution. Start investigations and demand Transparency. Is the FED Creating Secret Money too? How can there be $1.8 Quadrillion in Derivatives if it is not a fixed game hidden from the US Public who coincidentally are getting poorer and making less money each year.
Transparency would go a long way to solving all the problems we are vexed with today.
So it will never happen...
Yeah, there would be almost no nasty politics and dirty tricks.
Uh no sorry. Dem with the gold & money makes the rules.
The fraud will continue.
Yeah, I saw that NYT's story.
The funny thing about it is, one of those guys that wrote it (Eric Schmitt) was there being briefed on what was being found in real time, never got in the paper though ;-)
they have nice golf courses for the Docs.
Would you miss it?
I know the bears think this is the crash coming, but again, remember what they ahve been doing all yeaer. DIP get you short, catch you by the SHORT AND CURLIES, and then we rally up again.
HERE is a good cheat sheet ==> Looks like the FEAR INDEX all time lows! WOW! SEE HERE==> http://bit.ly/1fMcakI
is all time low, and that means retail traders getting tricked in short, and will get their ass handed to them in NOV - DEC. Very eye opening!
Bascially everytime we get to the bottom of this chart people scream crash, but it usually sets off a month full of rallying. So better be careful bears. :-)
You have to be loony to blame the moon. (loony from lunar referring to the moon)
To the moon Alice!!

More Texas Ebola: Amarillo hospital on 'lockdown', patient displaying possible symptoms of virus

Call off the dogs... unless this turns out to be a real infection... then there will be no stopping this bug...

BSA is reporting that the patient didn't come into contact with anyone that had been to an Africa country with Ebola. The lockdown is lifted
6:47 PM - 15 Oct 2014Greek Labour Minister Yiannis Vroutsis announced yesterday that the country will be testing a “minimum guaranteed income” (MGI) measure for Greek citizens living in poverty. The country’s current social welfare system is inefficient and incomplete, said Vroutsis, but the MGI “is the pillar of the social solidarity of tomorrow.”
The pilot program will be implemented in 13 municipalities for six months. Participating individuals will receive 200 euros per month, plus an additional 100 euros per adult in the household and 50 euros per child.
Some version of a minimum guaranteed income plan—also called a basic income guarantee (BIG) or negative income tax—has been gaining tepid but bipartisan support in America. The proposal has managed to capture the imaginations of conservatives, progressives, and libertarians alike, although each tend to lend support for different reasons and envision a different finished product. The appeal from a conservative or libertarian perspective is that a basic income guarantee program could replace our current bloated, labyrynthian, work-disincentivizing welfare scheme (including everything from food stamps to unemployment benefits to Social Security) with one program that costs less, runs more smoothly, and empowers individuals to use benefits how they, not federal officials, see fit.
