The "Fear And Greed" Index Is Almost At 0
If the Fed was hoping to get the retail investor back and buying in the market to allow the hedge funds, institutions and private clients who are all selling at unprecedented levels, to offload to mom and pop...
... it may have to come up with a different strategy than today's flash crash rerun.
Then again, it's not like the "market" has any retail investors left: as we disclosed recently, the only buying - aside from China's National Team, and occasional central bank interventions - are corporate buybacks.

Means a big old fashioned rally coming...was getting excited..rats.
It already rallied about 1000 points from this morning's lows. Did you see that shit?!
Has the Dow ever opened up a thousands points in 15 minutes?
It's actually quite impressive. Plunge protection team did a great job today. R.I.P. markets, we are officially in a centrally planned bull market. Corrections are bad for morale. It's pointless to resist.
But they may have to do it again tomorrow, and the next day, and the next day, .....
They decimated the morale of shorts. I am terrified to be short now. This was impressive manipulation.
The message is clear: "Do not fuck with us."
True Dat! Plus we've got the "Mama-san" and "Papa-san" investors to slide the shaft into now, pfffft, who needs US retail.
Fear and Greed? isn't that a Wall St. trading firm????
Are they represented by Dewey Cheatem and Howe?
meh. I'm about even for the year. about 1/2 cash, 25% stocks, 25% bonds.
Suck it FED.
Kinda hard to have a crash without retail. Compare US and China Bubbles.
Nothing to be afraid of guys. Cramer says this is a great opportunity to take out a home equity loan to buy stocks. You don't want to miss Dow 20k. Don't be a schmuck. Forward!
M.A. Armstrong is calling a top in the Dow between 23000 and 40000 for 2017 <------- phase transition. So buy with both hands and your cock.

Yep, he was right, but none are so blind as those who will not see and none are so deaf as those who will not hear......

Liesman just said that the Fed will rate until next spring to raise rates. heh heh.
The Fed will never raise rates.
not in YOUR lifetime
Guess it's time to circumcise the goats.
Central Banks and buybacks... so taxpayers buying leveraged paper at the top.
Nap time...take advantage of it until the real shit shows up later..like maybe a presidential 'all is well' kind of thing..
How's this for a Fed strategy. The US mockets have shrugged off global weaknesses because resiliency and fundamentals. To address the growing disparity of those who've enjoyed the wealth effect of QE and those who haven't....drum roll.
Introducing QE4! A helicopter drop of stawks for the muppets. All the sheeple, like it or not, are now retail investors. This will give them confidence about their retirement so they can take risks to get things moving. Congratulations all you new investors, you're getting a slice of the 'Murikan Dream with some nice sub-prime student and auto loan certificates. Buy moar!
BLACK Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday!
This whole day has been unfuckingbelieveable but honestly I'm game to keep this thing going as long as possible.
Ill take the pain of knowing I live in a fake economy so long as I have food on the table and a roof over my head. The alternative is mushroom clouds all around...I never liked mushrooms.
have a crimini day!
You sir, are a big part of the problem.
Mushroom clouds my ass.
I want to see a market run by people with integrity. With real price discovery. With honest people doing straightforward business making real products.
Buck up. Sometimes fixing broken stuff means you work through lunch and skin your knuckles occasionally.

Isn't the knock on the market, even during the best of times, by people of modest means and a modicum of common sense and healthy scepticism, that the market is just to "risky" to rely on... How has todays performance changed that perception in anyway? The game is up and most know the markets are frauds and something wicked this way comes, unfortunately.
Disgusting, "YTD cum flows by client" this isn't a porno site, Tylers!
i don't participate. my morale is unchanged
What I learned from today.... SHORT IN PRE-MARKET TRADING and COVER LIKE A MOFO within the 1st hour.
Condolences to all of you caught upsidedown now.
the only thing real about the market is the fleecing of those who play
You dont need to get mom and pop to buy anything you can make them pay anyway by diluting their savings and wages with a little QE and then buy the stock with that.
Yes, apart from the people who have been on the tech band wagon, I suspect the retail participation may be well below historic average. Probably it is just the intragroup fight within the 1%. Strange way for markets to close... left in a limbo. Probably shaking off those from the market who do not belong there.
Am I the only one thinking that the phrasing "YTD CUM FLOWS" in the first chart above is a bad choice by BoA, or am I just running low on porn?
