A Stunned Wall Street Reacts To Today's Epic Move

Tyler Durden's picture




 

The first report summarizing today's stunning market action comes from FBN's Jeremy Klein, who is out with this blurb:

In the first 15 minutes of trading the S&P 500 E-Minis traded below the S&P 500 cash index despite a fair basis, according to Bloomberg, of -6.72.  This is unheard of and something I have never witnessed in my near fourteen year career on the StreetI can only conclude that many large institutions threw in the towel on the Open in wake of the dislocations in not only stocks but also treasuries. 

As a result of the whiplash, Klein, who just over a month ago first, and so far only, called for a bearish correction, has turned bullish again because he now expects "a likely positive Fed meeting on October 29 to help fuel a Santa Claus rally." So, QE4 then?

I am sure the Federal Reserve Bank of NY employees are all GREEN LIGHT on their Bloomberg terminal buying stocks hands over fist right now...and even that, not much of a big rebound so far.

I think Klein is right.    They're probably going to come in and bail it out again near the end of October.   I mean look at all the panic from just a few percent loss.   I don't think the big one is coming until the end, maybe late next year.

For the benefit of those who are not arbs or have never traded futures, this is FREE MONEY!

To cash in on it, you would need a hedge account, and trade both cash and futures, more or less at the same time, BUT as Tyler points out, this should not happen.

Any wind blows someone's ship in the desired direction. I just cashed in my GBP shorts, I ended up with a pair, as I added on one; they were Dec.'14 contracts; +11,250$. I short GBP again probably in the June '15 contract when it has a rally. it's in a beautiful 45 degree down channel; this is a currency which represents a country without an economy; supported by the "financial industry?". Anyone like the under on this currency ? Bwa=ha-ha. I sure do. Ordinary people like you El Vaquero are profiting too; it's just a question of being short soon enough so it's not dangerous. Like right now; you can't enter the market on either side.

I'm not in this market because of the simple fact that I'm not an insider.  I would have profited had I jumped in several months ago as I would have gone long USTs.  IMO, it would be best for those who have done what I would have done to hold on for a while longer, but I have to admit, I'd be very tempted to take profits before the next FOMC minutes are released, and I wouldn't call anybody foolish or cowardly for doing the same.

T he idea that it's necessary or important to be an insider is not true. There's no such thing as a bad profit, and I like the way you think about taking profits on your, shall we say, practice, bond buy. There are a lot of markets; not just Stocks and Bonds. Sometimes just looking at the price charts is a religious experience; you can see that the herd has all done the same thing already; and you just do the opposite. What I'm trying to say is; instead of trying to predict the future, just react to the present.

Ah; but we did. and "WE" knew we should short the S&P;  and WE did. Right now, we just have to wait and see. If the thing gets nice and high again, you can short it again. Meanwhile, if you had a futures account, you could short Feeder Cattle, basis Apr.'15 and not have anything to worry about. The stock market is very, very, difficult compared to certain futures markets; which offer obvious opportunities every once in a while. Seriously; Zero Hedge ran a long series of articles about very significant market topping indicators; there was plenty of advance notice.

Well, I remember black Monday, 1987 very clearly; the Dow went down 500pts. or something; every once in a while, something interesting happens in the Stawk Market to break up the boredom. At that time, I had no quote system and had to trade by telephone with Chicago, and I had to ask 3 questions of my broker, (also a friend), before I knew what to do; in the next four days, I made enough to take off for the Winter in Mexico.  It is one for the books, but they happen over and over again. the big clue is when everyone says, oh, the market is going up forever, because-----?, the Fed's printing; whatever; all the explanations are false. they always have been.

At my son's cub scout meeting they announced we were going to have a real Indian for the advancement ceremony.  I immediately got the hilarious image of a guy from India with the really bad accent.  Obviously that wasn't what they meant.

Kinda like my wife whining that our deck (that she had to have) is so big that it's too much work to paint.Gotta chuckle at how hard some people have it.

I stuck to my guns and made her paint it herself. Maybe next time she'll heed my advice about building McMansion sized crap.

It's scary to realize that there's professionals on the Street with no experience prior to Y2k, yet are allowed to spout conventional wisdom as if they know something.

Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" is certainly applicable here.

Why would you use the term "market?" All that does is to provide cover for the likes of Jamie, Lloyd and the Teppers of the world.

14 years experience and he is the big swinging dick? At most real jobs, 14 years you are still blowing the knowledgable people on command. And most of you still respect the profession of paper hussler. Amazing!

Ah yes, good old USSA-IRS form 8300. Don't forget to let your American government know how much gold you bought, they'll need it soon.

Boating accident is known fraud and you filthy cheating Americans will be jailed as tax cheats.

Don't do it!
