That's what happens Larry when you have 64.08mm shares short against 59.5mm shares outstanding... and traders read this (and the VIX is stuck in backwardation).

as backlwardation remains...

FreeStockCharts, based on BATS, just went down, stuck on Wed's data, Thurs suddenly disappeared, which no doubt some traders which could magically happen in real life ... UPDATE: As of 3:45, looks like it's back up

If you have to use any website ending in the suffex -trade -- can I recommending taking a step or two back for the next few weeks?

Take some to cash, some to AG & AU, and some into FX, CHF and Krone seem like safer bets than the shitshow that is going on all over the place right now.
