Mission Accomplished - Nasdaq Goes Positive For The Day
Thanks to the SEC's ignorance of seemingly illegal exchanges of information between Jim Cramer and Tim Cook - everything is awesome again...
So we went from halted 3 times limit down to green in 3 hours... normal...

So solid fundamentals!
"Dow down less than 150 points..." Nice spin CNBS!
That round trip ticket only cost like 4000 Muppets. Not bad.
pods
The ends justifies the means.
Meanwhile on CNBC

This is called a selling opportunity...take it..
Anyone notice the major “premium” of the CNBC averages above those of every other outlet. CNBC was reporting the major indexes significantly over what other outlets were. It doesn’t seem like a simple bit to ask issue. Shown here.
To the moon, I tell ya. To the fucking moon!
Meh, I feel that with what we have seen up to now they make one last attempt at higher and squeeze the shorts and make it look like everything is fine then whammo they pull the plug and it never comes back. It's never easy and the market won't just let everyone pile onto the short side here and ride it straight back down to 666
Yeah like 0.1 basis point per decade.
Anyone wonder how many billions more we now owe in taxes?
It must have 'cost' a fortune to pump the market up from -1,000.
I was thinking the same thing. There has to be a paper trail that can be followed here. You can't make that many purchases to bid up the price that fast and hard (like a porno) with out leaving a obvious trail. No way it was the Swiss Central bank by themselves. That would be the big story is who or whom is the big secret buyer with that type of purchasing power. We know it was the Plunge protection team but we have to be able to prove it.
is that the infamous hockey stick pattern everyone was talking abt?
stick save, bitchez!
Just imagine if the magin clerk sold you out at the open....Muppet indeed.
Epic fucking shitshow. Those PPT fucksticks ruined my damned popcorn, and I still have half a bottle of Glenfidditch left.
There always has been a certain asymmetry in these matters.
Un-sold, Bitchez!
My Nasdaq companies are NOT green...Oh wait, I guess they didn't send emails to Cramer this morning.
Dollar is getting smoked and gold down?
Ah but lets not forget it's options expiry time.
Let's not forget how Hank fucked the shorts on a certain options expiration the last go round of the big rinse, repeat machine, the absence of notable CB intervention in the pre-markets today reeks of intentionally sticking it to the amateur momos who dare to bet against the house.
Everyone with an ounce of common sense knows these Markets are a fraud. That is what this crash and "recovery", shows.
Who in their right mind would not want out of this garbage going foward?
One day is nothing, except today, this market popped it's cherry with the public.
Doubt there are any mom & pops "investors" left in this game.
plenty of 401k hostages
Here where I work the average Lumpen is totally CLUELESS...those that have half a clue don't even seem to care. As long as the ATMs work and Football games are played these criminals can get away with ANYTHING..(and have!)
Rock hard.
Jesus christ
Please don't blaspheme. Unless you want to do it properly:
It's
Jesus H Tap-dancing Christ.
Why doesn't anyone swear using "Mohammed Prophet"? Why swear using a guy who exemplified love and forgiveness when there's a perfectly good raping, pillaging, murdering pedophile to use?
Free and fair markets in action. Why can't Chinese markets be like ours?
Wrong style of keyboards?
call it desperation...
lol, DOW is next. Less than 200 pts down for hte day last time I looked.
But hey, whats a 900 point rally in a single day say other than, Mr. Yellen its time to raise those interest rates.
If we go over -70 it's going to be the largest intraday point swing in history. Nothing to see here citizen, move along.
Just curious who gives down arrows on statement of fact:
1 2008-10-10 8,451.19 8,901.28 7,882.51 1,018.77 ?128.00Someone who doesn't like facts. so, govt troll. If you don't get a few of those, you're not doing it right.
Lookie lookie, the markets goal of pissing off ZH is accomplished. Told ya.
You said "markets". Make me laugh.
Its still a market. No one said anything about FREE.
What markets?
unbelievable, makes it look like there wasn't a reason for the drop in the first place.
I was off by 29 minutes. I said green by lunch.
yeah ya did
I said the same on another thread this morning. Then, I figured that might even be too much for the PPT, so I pushed that back to 2 p.m.
Keep the ponzi going. Just print. It only goes down when they are ready, or it doesn't happen.
Tim??? Is that you?
This isn't even betting on virtual racing. We're just watching it. Insanity.

Naa, it can't be possible that one stock could prop up the NASDAQ since the would mean the market is manipulated as hell and we all know that Wall St. is run by saints with only the peoples best interest at heart.......
China Called...they gonna want that "borrowed" USA PPT money back tonight.
Placing bets on Star Craft tournaments is less manipulated than being in this market.
The day isn't over, wait until Europe closes.
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night.
You ain't a market, and hey you're wound tight.
And that's all right, just bite.
Europe closed a hour ago....
We still have China the magic is not lost.
" Fair and Balanced "
People should be thankful they have an opportunity to GTFO and buy gold cheap. The more the PPT take action the quicker you should hit the bank... if you still have money in the bank.

PPT at work, as usual.
Made a shit load of fiat today. Like I said before, when the big one comes there won't be any chance to get in or out. The casino will be closed.
Good call, you must have nerves of steel. I was running around buying dog food, beans and rice and 1 million sunblock.
Old people on ss prefer cat food over dog food. I guess it sticks to their ribs better.
Cat food smells like shit. Kibbles will do.
I have four other partners in our firm. They were all panicking and we're going to sell. I told them I'm buying the shit out of this dip. You should have seen their faces. They thought I was fucking nuts. Now I'll sell into strength.
For a few days in 2008 as well as the flash crash, I was locked out of my broker account. DNS if I recall. Today. nothing, not even delayed service which indicated to me all is well.
I don't know what else we have in common, but we have that belief in common.
When *the* big one comes, there will be no exit.
You know, I don't want a crash, I don't want bad news, I don't want people to lose everything they have. What I do want is reality and reality this is NOT.
A-FRAKIN'-MEN!!!
MOMO MUPPET BTFD DEAD CAT BOUNCE

Now is maybe the time to sell the paper crap you have accumulated.
If this warning was not enough, I don't know what will be.
You can get out with a profit, sit back and watch the others drown in their own greed.
If you can't see the props supporting the facade, you need new glasses!
That is exactly correct. Today was a gift for those with any stake in this game. You've ended up losing little or nothing, now get out..
Honestly, before they announce QE4?
did Tim Cook just surpass Anthony Kennedy as the most powerful person in us?
HAHAHAHA!
Dow down 1,000 points. Now down 100 points.
HYSTERICAL. Your tax dollars are "hard at work" in the S&P Futures today.
It's a sad day ... when you wake up and realize that America's stock market is no different than the Shanghai stock market.
Ain't no thing when you get your money for nothing...

Well this has been going on for awhile now. Remember when short sellers were stopped from shorting banks and "bank holding companies" cough...
Hey, it's a competitive world!!!
wave (3) down is done and then followed by an intraday reversal that starts small degree wave (4) up. Wave (4) up could occupy the middle of the week. But then towards the end of the week, we could see wave (5) down to finish a one degree higher wave {iii}. That wave (5) down move could be powerful. see the DOW below intraday lows by the end of the week or into next Monday.
WTF?
The baby snakes over at cnbc are crowing that the US economy is sound, china is contained and we'll probably see dow 20k soon.
I pity the poor fuckers who try to trade this shitpile of manipulation and fraud. I really do.
Now witness the power of this fully armed and operational battle station!
Shouldn't there be a limit up?
In fact, this is the QE4 launched in relatively silence
YA GOTtA beLIEve!!!
Investors are experiencing problems accessing their online stock accounts and completing trades through brokerage TD Ameritrade amid a feverish sell off in the broader markets, according to widespread reports on social media.
TD Ameritrade, responding directly to numerous traders on Twitter who complained about the problems, said it was working to resolve the issue. The firm directed traders to a toll-free phone number to complete trades.
Separately, brokerage Scottrade also experienced problems with its site, according to social media reports. The firm acknowledged the problems on Twitter and said it had restored its access after a brief outage.

So it IS like China.
Just limited to Schmucks.
Yep. Insiders get in on the cheap. Now the sheep can come and buy at the top again.
Fundementally impossible yet possible. The system is functioning as if broken. The last 30 minutes today could be interesting.... IF the system is not broken, it should close in the red.
Only illegal for non Chosenites.
They are profit taking. They will steal all the retirement funds that have been "invested" in the market, and then Big Daddy Goobermint will step in and save everyone by taking their IRA's.
This was just a test of the early warning system.
Had this been a real emergency - electric power would be off, internet down, equities not trading, banks closed, water taps dry, and food stores empty.
Repeat - This was only a test.
(Real alert coming soon.)
The chinese market is manupulated..hURRRRRRDEURRRR Merica!
all markets are rigged--even games---

the new normal
It will drop...................
Today's market message for you:
Party on, Garth.
To see a drop of that magnitude completely erased is mind-blowing
There will be a lot of cigar smoke outside the bars in Midtown tonight.
it's the Mother of All Stop Hunts
The definition of easy money is buying the S&P 500 after the bounce starts and still making 1.5% on it within a couple hours.
Will be interesting to see if it gets hammered at the close today. It easily could.
Look at that it vanished. If they tightened it up enough would it have even happened?
Although there is a lag in some associated indices playing catch up to the new reality that all is well and back to normal.
Act fast and you have some additional trading opportunities.
The fraud is strong with this one !!!!
Perhaps the stupidest all-time ZH article. Cramer has that much pull that he can drag the market from down 7% to positive by hawking Apple? Yellen ain't got nothing on him.
WoW! How many stops were triggered today? Got 'em on both sides!
We stop loss some folks.
Very few realize what truly is going on with "markets" now namely gangster's hold up and daylight robbery on the so far blatant and unprecedented scale, dump and pump scheme in front of our eyes.
And the gang I am talking about are world central bank stock speculators. Have you tried to buy AAPL today for $92 forget it, this price was for the cronies only and this goes for majority of big stocks, frantically running the turbo insider trading orgy, stealing stocks under the guise of China BS or any other lame excuse. NYSE became rent seeking feudal institution.
I suggest the ZH drop coverage of the "markets" completely since they are no more but stinky fart of banksters forcing us to inhale, all of it is just a worthless meaningless stinky propaganda shit. irrelevant as soon as we turn away from it.
This is we who by talking about the shit make this useless thing count.
For what's really going on in the real economy read this:

Soooo,,, the rate hike is back on again?
I bet Apple does not sell many more phones in China....they have good copies and much cheaper....the Chinese masses will buy the cheaper local phone in the future....
Show of hands:
You were short and got in on the dip to cover and take the money.
That dead cat was made of Silly Putty!
Market is turning down again.
I guess we'll call it 'profit taking'. LoL!
The day ain't over yet, Tylers.
This game will last more than a few days. They'll congratulate themselves, just like China, and then forget to come in on Wednesday or Thursday only to be caught out by the next wave.
Unch does not = fixed. Keep band-aiding that shotgun wound PPT. It's a long road ahead for you.
Edit: Hey PPT, get back from your coffee/cocaine break, this bitch is rolling over again!!!
Well this afternoon's action is curious. Did the fed run out of bullets? Or was this morning perhaps those desperate BTFDers?
Jon Stewart nailed Cramer years ago about just such behavior. Nothing has changed at all. Not that I expected it to.
