Today's Historic Market Open, Caught On Tape

Tyler Durden's picture




 

During the flash crash of May 6, 2010, the 1000 plunge in the Dow Jones seems historic, unprecedented and surely unrepeatable - after all the regulators had "learned their lesson" and would never allow a move like this ever again, right? Wrong.

What a great way to finish killing off the middle class.

Bounce the cat, see what falls out, buy anything on the cheap and fade back into the black.

Quickest wealth redistribution system ever.

That's market effciency bitchez!
