PPT has to save one asset class.  It is easier to manipulate stocks than currency and bond market

it's blatantly clear to anyone that follows this crap - they "took over" since 2012 and there is no real market since.  economic releases, media spin, HFT/algo manipulation...

 

it's like you have a couple of people in a control room of a large spaceship and they finally figured how to pilot it.  there is a brake pedal, they just don't want to use it.  the speed they are at makes it illegal, but they just don't care - no cop will stop them.  it's all good for them.

 

unless you believe it's all a coincidence and things are great, that "investors" are jumping in whenever things turn south.

 

they decided to take it for one epic last ride.

Used to be when a country was failing the rich, elite and connected fleeced the country on the way out the door. Now its become a global fleecing by them since the failure is everywhere there is a central bank. Problem is where do they run to, where do they hide and where do they keep the money that the angry globe can't find them.

I have no question that the manipulation is orchestrated in a way that the .01% gets to take all the gains on the way up, and on the way down whenever that happens.  Regular investors are playing musical chairs, while the .01% is in charge of deciding when the music is going to stop.  What Greenspan should have said is, "this will end badly [for the serfs]".

AS long as the Fed levitates the markets Corp earnings do not matter as much which can allow for a stronger dollar.  If this is the new reality then I guess we are at WAR

This will last until the S&P breaks the alltime high and then rebreaks it. They have no other hope than to brute force the market up and hope the new highs change the psychology enough for the rate hikes to be seen as harmless. It won't work but that is all they have left. Expect new highs within days. If you could see into the CBs accounts you would see where the 'market participation' was coming from... but you can't.

EIX is my proxy for market manipulation. It bottomed out just after 10 down 3.25% on no news. It moves when SPY shares are being liquidated (-) or created (+). The S&P moves down as people decide to ditch the market then 'someone' mysteriously decides it is time to start moving things and EIX starts a straght line upward as more shares of SPY are purchased than are offered and SPDR creates new shares to accomadate, subsequently buying the the underlying components to back the new shares. If you watch the bid/offer and actual shares traded you can frontrun these moves because the algos start ramping the bid/offer on EIX when they see shares of SPY being created even though no EIX shares are actually traded. Then there is a flurry of trades as SPDR makes its purchases. The opposite happens as SPY liquidates. Watch the ramp happen and compare the graphs. The 'who' behind the purchases has to be inferred. Maybe Joe Sixpack is watching and decides it's a good time to buy but I doubt it. Somebody is moving things and you can see it second by second.

of course stawks are being bought at the open. that is the way its been for the past month and a half no matter what news there is.

 

good number is good for stawks, bad number is good for stawks.

 

this number is 1000 percent being revised way lower next month, they will report a terrible number in december, and then that will be the feds excuse not to raise rates bc they cant, and steve liesman will tell us how awesome everything is with the us economy.

 

nothing is bearish for stawks anymore,

The only panic buying happening now is EUM and USD index.  Panic selling in DJUA and most likely other int rate-sensitive

vehicles.
