Meanwhile, Over At The Real New York Stock Exchange
Ignore the constant commotion at the TV studio in downtown Manhattan which once was the New York Stock Exchange (currently owned by the ICE) and is now mostly packed with actors, cheerleaders, set designers and producers, and focus on the real exchange located some 40 miles away in Mahwah, NJ (which for a few months over the winter even had a laser attached to its main microwave tower), where moments ago the scene was the following...
Main entrance:
The Microwave towers:
And, apparently, quite a few electricians working for Pantaleo Electric...
And even the occasional gardner:

Interesting... sabotage?
One story building....can't be suicided from roof top.
Hence the need for all the "power cables"
The truck and the workers are just a CIA observation team. It's a normal precaution. Not like this doesn't go on every day of the week. Everybody calm down.
The CIA team is probably just there to witness the event.
Say... was that UAL, ZH, and the NYSE that were hacked by the Chinese today?
I do love a quarter dark w/2 sides and cornbread.
Rigging up the thermite? "Pull it."
Panteleo? I know those guys, they're fuckin' crooks too!
It is NJ. What is amazing is there are beautiful spots in NJ but many of the people and all of politicians, etc are scum. The place is unliveable because of the corrupt and evil people.
They call it "The Garden State".......should be called "The Obnoxious State"
Best comment.
ISIS or the Chinese are obviously running late.
I hate waiting for shit to happen... it's like that WTC7 fiasco all over again.
better get Chertoff on the scene, he'll fix it for a hefty vig...
anyone seen the Dancin' Israelis lately?
The local news, which rarely mentions anything beyond where the market closed is all over this today. Something must be up, because TPTB are trying to control the narrative with the sheeple. Their version says they were computer "glitches" and not related.

Worst ever contractor. Their phone system is designed to stone wall. There is no way to reach them. They will never return phone calls. We gave them a $200,000 contract and thinking of voiding it as we are frustrated with them not showing up to install. WILL NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYBODY.https://plus.google.com/109107762476521070916/about
No work? They are union.....
Where are the dancing Israelis?
The weather is stormy with good chance of thunder and heavy showers....

Works for carbon based and silicon based traders alike.
That old fucker on CNBC needs to be sent to the glue factory! He is nuts
Has to be, its the only reason stocks could possibly go down.
Sabotage is a given with Jersey electricians.
Jersey union electricians. BTDT.
The gardner, Sum Ting Wong, did it!
"gardener" is the proper spelling of the occupation of one who attends gardens.
"Gardner" is an english family name derrived many centuries ago for one who's occupation was that of a palace guard.
Ava Gardner was a hottie!
Chauncey Gardiner 2016!
"Chauncey Gardiner 2016!"
There will be growth in the spring.
Saw "The Barefoot Contessa" last week for the first time.
You tell no lies, sir, she was smokin' hot.
Pay no attention to the Hebrew behind the curtain.
Exactly, but I'm pretty sure they'll blame it on the box-cutter wielding, satanic, cave dwellers. Let's do another burial at sea in 3, 2, 1...

I wish nonmembers could see how many relative upvotes these types of comments get. It goes to show that ZHers see the problem.
60,000 reads in 3 hrs is not insignificant ---could be all ZH members --but not likely---just saynig
Meanwhile... What exactly?
PS the article is worth nothing for record where the business takes place, just curious what was being alluded to.
There are guys working on the towers behind me as I speak. I know there are some big trading firms around here. Wonder if it all is connected.
Yes, I believe so. When I tried to log on this afternoon, my computer WiFi tried to log onto the neighbor's wifi. I had to go to settings and change it. Never done that before.
Speaking of the neighbor's wi-fi.... any idea how I can suggest to him he needs to get a faster speed???
Login to his router and change the password, he's probably still using the default. With him locked out, you don't need to share his bandwidth.
Oh, that's naughty (but I upvoted you). Don't kill the goose - lock him out and he'll get suspicious. Set up dual input...
Send him a USPS letter explaining that you would have sent an email but this way was faster.
Let me guess...
You have teenagers?
No worries. Notme did it.
Jeezus, Tyler, I thought I was going to see pictures of employees streaming out of the building with their personal posessions in a box.
You're freaking me out. Seriously.
That's just a CIA observation crew. No biggie. Let's not get all jumpy that something's actually going on.
There are no employees making their way into or out of the building for that matter even though "Wall Street" has temporarily melted down.
Nobody even at the gates to allow the troubleshooting experts that don't have access cards in.
You would think that place would be crawling with techies by now... I mean it is the NYSE right?
Hmmmm.
(The Google Map view shows only around 60 cars parked at this huge facility which I am assuming is a normal day.)
Bingo.
If somebody is sweating bullets because the exchange is down, it sure isn't reflected in the activity level.
Joey "Pants" Pantaleo... good guy, makes a fortune in the IBEW but he never seems to leave his house...?
Better be careful taking pitchers like those, you might be suspected of terrism!
That's what I was thinking.
Photographer must have been wearing a fedora with a big white "PRESS" card sticking out of the band, mustard stains on his herringbone sport coat, and well worn brown wingtips.
Nope, Wayne Madsen is still stuck in traffic contemplating why cows wear bells, because the NYSE also has bells.
(Cows: Their horns don't work, Wayner.
NYSE: we'll see if they get on their foghorns tomorrow to 'splain.
Zeroes: Just saved you the time it takes to read thruogh five smallfont pages of conspiracy theory.)
No one can buy stocks but they can buy silver bullion.
:)
I just bought more shares of EXK. $1.83 is a fire sale price. Next up...the fire to go with it.
People would rather own a candy bar over a silver bar.

Yep, and that shows you how fucking stupid 90% of the 99.99% really are. . . .
The fact that CNBS and everybody else in .gov is putting so much effort in trying to convince us that this is just a glitch tells me that this is more than a glitch.
Yep
Right?
Is it good practice to roll out software in the middle of the week as opposed to say, on a weekend? They way they're talking everything is smooth without NYSE almost like it's not even needed.
Tyler, you did an update last night too huh? Like UAL and WSJ? Foley looked like a deer in the deadlights.
If it is, they'll never admit it. It'll be like the Flash Crash- no good explanation even years later.
Central planning is still trying to figure out who to blame this on, and how to profit from it imho.
Norks? Russia? China? Racism? Anti-gov radicals? Syria?
Get with the program chunga, this was obviously George Bush's fault.
Irresponsible contractors and cyber attacks don't kill the stock exchange, Confederate Battle Flags do...
A single rogue programmer, a fat finger, a dancer's knees, the butcher's thumb, residual seasonality, a cold winter, a hot summer, Linda Green, but prolly the damn Rooskis.
Lovin' the flag!
Get the fuck outa here whoever down voted that comment.
OK, other IT guys there... Perhaps I am too cautious but I would NEVER bring a piece of software into a PRODUCTION environment before extensive stress testing in a sandbox. WTF??? Did they hire Raj to run their fracking IT department? Not even Raj (Hello, my name is Bob and I am here to take care of your problems. What operating system are you using?) Mumbatra would pull some crap like that with a multi billion dollar customer!!! Aghhh!
LOL, a software update/roll-out would never be started during the day. When billions of dollars are trading. Whoever believes that shit is a fucking fool. Joe's Burger Shack wouldn't even attempt something that fucking stupid. Also, they have seamless failover resiliancy in place. Even if systems failed, they would immediatly be transfered to standby systems with no effect on business. Happens all the time. Way too much money at stake for it not to happen. Use common sense here.
Folks better have their Bug Out Bags ready
My thoughts exactly. They are so bad in faking sencerity.
(Now if you really put on your paranoia hat we can assume the people on the outside are just distraction to make it look like a cable problem. )
After 911 all the exchanges went into colocation and redundancy mode to ensure everyone that should the servers go down other servers at another (secret) location would activate and everything would be seemless. Technical glitch....yah right....
They doth protest too much.
When all mainstream news is in sync, we have an issue and it ain't what the news is selling you
It's just a Sanford & Sons utility truck...
Where are the MRAPs?!
No more bets!
Ladies and gents No more bets, thank you.
There is ONE review for that electrician on google reviews.
And it's a doozy.
backhoe fade?
I didn't think they blocked the way in, only the way out. Am I looking at the picture wrong?
"Me think the lady doth protest too much" Sheakspeare
Why do I get the feeling something really ugly is going on?
Do you think the filth at cnbc would ever tell you the truth?
I watched the planes hit wtc on cnbc. Mark Haynes didn't tell the truth until the second plane hit. He didn't fess up until fifteen monutes later. I saw it with my own eyes. "Who you gonna believe? cnbc or your lyin' eyes?"
FIBER CUUUTTTTTTTT
Somebody here called Wednesday over the weekend.
Won the sandwich pool I think.
It's located in New Jersey. New Jersey!!!
All that $money, and they can't even afford to hire a concrete guy to fix the broken curb...?
Like the message that the 1st photo sends - it shows a fairly good sized 'crack' in the curb.
How does China wackin' New York help China's stock exchange? Maybe FXP was doing too well here?
jus' askin'...

In the seventh picture you can barrrrrrely make out Tim Geithner's fivehead peeking around a tree!!!
No. They dress him up in a gnome suit and put him out by the shrubs...
I guess the Ace Tomato Company panel trucks would be a bit incongruous?
Across the road from The Home Depot (for nail gun emergencies).
They better get them Jersey electricians working faster because they are gonna miss the 3;30 pm ramp.
The sites is a fake. Look at the dudes truck. What did the chairman of the NYSE get out a yellow pages looking for a local electrician. "Hey Joey you guys busy today?" Need some work done at our Jersey location.
No worries. The Sopranos are all over it.
Altos are hotter.
woke up this mornin'
got myself a gun

Duuuude! Thanks for showing the terrorists what to hit next. And you even gamne them a google earth snapshot.
Oh, they already know. But it dossen't quite work that way. The physical location is of no consequence.
Think I'll watch "The International" movie again tonight.
Let me preface by saying that I'm NOT advocating anything.... There.
That building if shockingly insecure. Whoever runs it is completely incompetent. Based on prior actual attacks, its plausible to imagine a small team with a truck bomb and light arms taking this facility with ease. Does trillions in wealth really depend on this facility? Shocking.
"Does trillions in wealth really depend on this facility? Shocking."
OK, I'm confused. Trillions in wealth? I thought it was a place where people pretended that they were buying shares of some company that won't send them a stock certificate for proof. I never realized that it was actually a PM repository. Goes to show how little I actually know....
Please explain again how a 757 aircraft fit through that small hole in the wall and didn't leave any debris....
