How To Reach Nasdaq 5000 In The New Paranormal
In November we exposed the market's ability to levitate magically when exchanges - most notably CBOE - break. Today we get another glimpse of the new paranormal. While the official CBOE site is not exposing it, numerous traders noted that CBOE options data was not being disseminated from around the open to shortly after 1030ET this morning. That 'coincidentally' occurred as NASDAQ ramped almopst unabated to 5000 (as VIX was clubbed from 13.9 to 13.1)...
Reports from traders about lack of options data being disseminated to their trading platforms coincided perfectly with the ramp in Nasdaq and plunge in VIX...
CBOE seems unwilling to admit that the issues started earlier...
Welcome to the new paranormal.

Please, you stupid fucks, remember "all animals are created equal, it's just that some animals are more equal than others"...
there's your "explanation"...
This little piggie went to market.....
Don't you do it Tylers...don't you fucking dare post a chart of the Russell and fucking reverse this....just let it ride, we all see it.
Signal a bottom and it's nailgun time fo you
Damn,...Schiffs Dow:gold ratio Theory of 1:1 is severly predicting........
WE BE IN WONDERLAND.
yes, especially considering the global liabilities...

Is the NASDAQ reaching 5,000 - the 3rd and final frontier before things turn to shitz in the markets? The other being S&P and DOW reaching highest highs...
?
More and more ridiculous each day.

Indeed. I have enjoyed some of your insights David, now would you mind holding this bag for me....
Watch. I predict the pension funds will primarily be holding this shit when it breaks.
Hardly any human is left to play. Just look at the volumes today, pathetic.
Please, the markets have been broken and magically levitating since 2008.
"I've abandoned free market principles to save the free market system"
G.W. Bush.
Me too, comrade doctor.
(I'm practicing. 'Comrade' doesn't flow off the tongue easily at first, but with some practice, it almost feels comfortable now).
Abe had to get his order in at a good price, therefore the market had to break.
I've been wondering; when the companies have bought back all their stock and the CBs have purchased every last bond will the 'market' value of said instruments be zero or infinity?
I'm thinking the latter.
I think that when you subidize something. you get more of it. The Fed can't buy it all, even with a printing press. More will just show up. I would consider starting a shell company just to take out debt and pay myself a fat salary.
Seems to be the way to go these days. A gourmet grilled cheese sandwich sounds so tempting right about now.
No, there will always be at least one share of stock for sail. Problem is that 1 Trillion dollars will be chasing it. There might be just a little bit of a supply demand imbalance.
What this, and other market breaks, tells me is that the Fed/Treasury/Banker complex is actually unable to fight the market. They are being overwhelmed or unwilling to commit the amount of money it would take to directly stand in front of the exit door. They need to shut the door and wait for all the beating and screaming to stop before they can open it again. I don't think that works well when the door is on a pressure cooker.
The classic Pump and Dump. You retirees don't forget to dump!
Stocks hit all time highs..and gold goes down....Greece is on bailout three..and gold goes down...strange to say the least
Don't forget WW3 is in progress. I think we can say that now after looking back at the 14 years. This is definately WW3.
Low-flying bird interposed on their laser? LOL
i'm sure this time it's different ...
Putin is retreating.
Russia could be on the verge of a Civil War here.
Crazy to be in commodities with interest rates this low and falling evsrywhere save Russia, Turkey and Brazil.
Still think rates on treasuries are going to plunge here...there's always a Big Short in that asset class.
LOL. Who are you? John Kerry? Learn to speak Russian and get your information from Russia. The US news is retarded.
Retreating from what...?
War porn: I did some rough calculations on that. Russian T-90 tanks can be in Kiev in 6 hours. The T95's in 4 hours.
Shouldn't be too much of a problem given the relative strengths of Russia's air force of around 3,400 aircraft to Ukraine's air force of around 220 aircraft...
anyone else notice how they trapped those stupid bastards who bought 5000? Seriously , who the fuck buys new ATH's?
While I embrace your sentiment, volume is STILL so pathetically low that another machine rebound isn't unthinkable, like last week's afternoon magic balloons against shorter technicals . The 12:30 candles had suspiciously high volume and big ol' wicks, so it's either the standard VWAP special to rise and re-dump after 1:30, or a more sinister scaling in for a later double-touch.
some folks had been trapped
Like my niece in her newspaper fort, just pretending to be trapped so that Uncle VIX will come to the rescue, relaxin', eatin' Oreo cookies . . .
Hmm. In my neighborhood when things break, like water mains, the results aren't nearly so good.
I think this might be what is called DOUBLE TOP.
If a $25. loaf of bread indicates something about the inflation of food prices, then a 18,000 point DJIA must be saying something about the inflation of investment capital.
