Bloomberg Service Now Fully Restored

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Good news for Citadel's latest employee: Bloomberg service is now fully restored.

"Service has been fully restored. We experienced a combination of hardware and software failures in the network, which caused an excessive volume of network traffic. This led to customer disconnections as a result of the machines being overwhelmed. We discovered the root cause quickly, isolated the faulty hardware, and restarted the software. We are reviewing our multiple redundant systems, which failed to prevent this disruption."

Which is great news for hedge fund trader and erstwhile Brookings blogger, Ben Bernanke, who can now put his customized keyboard to full use...

 

... As he tries to recreate his old Federal Reserve desktop.

Bloomberg: "You're fired, you're fired, you're fired!  And you Shlomo, I don't care how kosher you are, you will be fired too if you make another mistake."

I wish Bloomberg never existed. It is another no-good, lying place without any good looking bimbos.

At least, CNN can keep their rating for a while. Their bimbos could always take off their panties and brasiers off.

It's obvious who is behind this nefarious deed:

Obviously Russians or North Koreans.  Taking away some more basic civil liberties, that will solve it.

Whew!  Now I can once again access objective analysis on the value of gold, delivered just in time for for the paper market open.

 

Last night, I dreamed the Chinese started using their corner on the gold market to start raising the price and there was a Bloomberg article that said it was "ridiculous and unfair for the tiny 1% of the gold market that is physical trading to control the other 99% of the market where the professionals were trying to operate".

The great thing about the failure of multiple redundant backups is you know the failure was caused by a deliberate act.

Bloomberg Blackout= Reset Servers and new HFT platforms. Need to front run all short orders before casino opens.

What a fraudulent market it has become.

No experienced Systems or Network Engineer will believe that story.  But we shoudlnt let the truth get in the way of a good story.

Clearly some massive sell orders have overwhelmed the system. Someone is anxious to get out before SHTF in casino land.
