Gold and silver CoTs where fabulous. Volumes rising and specs crushed.
Some crazy or brave ass MF'ers out there.
Because all melt downs
are preceded by
a melt up

aka Janet
Perhaps she got a push-up bra.
ISIS is a Goldman Sachs/Fed patsy? /tinfoil hat mode.
Hit them where they live. ISIS.Corp shorted the market going into the Paris attack, expecting to make big bucks on the ensuing market collapse. Oops. It used to be that if you created the news, you knew how to bet. Whatever brain-in-a-jar is running this thing decided to pull up on the stick this time.
It's almost like the Jews are the only ones buying these days. Making themselves rich with fake money....
Why should the market give a shit about terror attacks. Are there terror indicators we don't have on our trade platforms?
Fear is shit in trading and in capital markets.
All Markets are now the common stock of central bank printing Inc. Just sell your soul and btfd.
Short answer: hope of war
Long answer: (wallstreet hopes:) military spending budget explodes, trickles down economy (at least for the milit-indust co.'s). More weapons, more security measures, more rockets ordered, more fuel ordered, drones, etc. Essentially the machines of war get primed.
At least that what the idiots on wallstreet are assuming, probably correctly, but who the fuck cares? When jobs, manufacturing, retail, and shipping is doing horribly and no one has any money to buy all the Chinese made shit, I really dont believe that the hope of war will do much in the long run.
Once again, this is why I dont day trade. Too stressful.
"Short answer: hope of war"
Exactly

Mario Draghi hints that more ECB easing could be on its way in DecemberHow long till we hear, "Just lost the FOMC highs"...
Gold...
You cant eat it.
And the bankers cant make money off of it as fast as they can in the casino.
Strong dollar/deflationary outlook pushing most into cash.
Gold's kinda living in no mans land atm. No one really wants it.
Not a bad time to buy, but everyone is kinda tepid these days about just how much has the market inflated the price of everything.
The big bets are on the reset: when, and by how much.
Think gold will get a bounce and the go down, way down the lazy river. WAY down. Act accordingly (as in I am building cash to buy at a lower bottom before all the wheels fall off this bus.)
T-yields smelling ECB QE... meow
VIX had it's neck snapped by all of the manipulated quotes submitted at key index levels during the first 4 days of the week.
going back to the sheeple herd is starting to look appealing again...\snark
As we all know...
EVERYTHING is AWESOME!!
Those that are smiling now will be crying later. The policies of those PhD's are making a mockery of money and the economy,,, and fools out of us.
Someone little has to hold the bag......
I'm seeing moar strength in Camel futures also. GFP [Genuine Fake Passports on the Turkish OTC] is looking like a solid long term buy too.
I'm thinking the strength in the Aussie was tied to the weaker euro, through the eur/aud cross.
There has also been decent demand in Aussie bonds, probably supported to some extent from the short end of the U.S. treasury note selloff in front of the fed.
The emerging markets are hanging on a cliff.
That goes for you too yc.
I'll bet you're the BAC analyst that wrote this little[caugh*caugh*] gem.

Why should a whopping 127 being killed cause the markets to go down or have any affect on them at all? I realize back before the markets became broken in their current state that these "terrorist attacks" did have a negative impact but that just showed they were broken in a different way.
127 people died out of a world population of over 7 billion...time for a market crash!!
On another note, why does ZH keep going on and on about this drama? Every third entry seems to be "terrorist" related. Sheesh.
It's not that you idiot, the whole of Europe stayed away from.....spending at retail all week, and that's something I suspect will stay that way for a while, that's why. I mean what would inspire a frugal German more to go spend and boost corporate earnings than army in the streets of Berlin.
Why do you think George W was telling Amercians to go to a mall right after 9/11?
Grow up.
So you don't understand how these geopolitical issues are tied into the financial and economic false narrative and endless propaganda being put forward?
Okay, got it.
The entire would is going up in flames and yet - ye olde Stock Market is doing marvelous things. I'm beyond being surprised.
Decided to run for Mayor of Pasadena, Texas Vote Steven Babyar! He's coming... Vote not till May 2016 get the word out! hook me up homies!!!!!! FANTASY OR NOT WITH HOLLIE nOT
Janet loves to day trade. That is all.
Dow 100,000. We have Billions more that can be killed for Wall Street.
It's protecting the 'Homeland'
Any quick answer on why the USD JPY has any credible relevance? I've never really followed that. I'm asking because yesterday I figured I'd open a fucking forex account. Just for the fuck of it for little to no money. I still rely on physical.
What else did you expect?
NFLX is doing an original series on people getting slaughtered by terrorists using tainted burritos
IT"S A BLOCKBUSTER I TELL YA!
Why is Netfilx up 20%?
Oh, Skeletor bought shares. No real business reason.
FUCKING DIE ALREADY YOU FUCKING SHITBAG!!!!!!

"What A Wonderful World"
I see splattered brains,
Red blood too,
I see them die,
‘Stead of me and you.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue,
Where gun ships fight,
The bright flashes bloom,
Both day and night,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
The colors of death,
So dark in the sky,
The terror on the faces,
Of people running by,
I see survivors shaking hands,
Saying I didn’t die,
They’re really saying,
Why, Lord, why?
I hear mothers wail,
As their babies die,
They’ll never learn,
They’ll never know why,
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
I see blood, I see gore,
On my Tee Vee,
While the Stock Markets soar,
To the one per cent’s glee.
And I think to myself,
What a wonderful world.
Yes I think to myself,
What a sick fucking world.
Oh yeah.
Have a great weekend, folks!
I reckon this image will be of great use to the Tylers in the weeks and months to come.

HEY JANET...YOU JUST RAISED RATES...BAAAA.
Curious that these attacks and the Hebdo ones came after french votes on Palestine Israel didnt like.
https://www.rt.com/news/208187-israel-france-grave-mistake/
http://www.timesofisrael.com/france-preparing-draft-for-un-resoluton-on-...
bibi loves this 'homeland' angle but leaves out that his daddy changed the name from Polish - where his family lived for many hundreds of years.
Anyway the Palestine votes were surely unrelated coincidences. Like Malaysia losing 2 planes in the months after its human rights trial finding Israel guilty of war crimes.
its also rather strange that not long after Charlie Hebdo and a reminder how important free speech is, the French high court reminded us all that criticism of anyone and everything is fine, unless its about Israel
https://theintercept.com/2015/10/27/criminalization-of-anti-israel-activ...
Well its not as though a tiny group in France perpetually makes that government bend the knee, at least.

Stocks are safer than banks, anyway.
But Israel are not the hidden hand. The Jesuits are. Everyone knows this.
All of them are just errand boys for the space lizards.

What is significant in this ramp up of world jihad vs western civilization game is the speed at which it is unravelling.
One week after Paris,now Bamako; a major staging point of french Sahel resistance against Al-Qaeda in Africa. Modern Man's African version of 7th cavalry stand at Little Big Horn of General Custer's fame againt the indigenous barbarian.
27 dead in Bamako, in reply to PAris botched second terrorist attack by ISIS. But, now in the Sahel, unlike in Syria, it looks like ISIS and Al-Qaeda are on same page !
And Hollande of France now has to pick up the guantlet in Mali !
But the french have now clearly stated : THIS IS A LONG RANGE WAR. We will not lose to terrorism.
How do you achieve that when you have created in Françafrique the nebulous of corrupt governance over 40 years?
Winning the past economic war by pilfering oil, all the while being an economic hitman by debasing the CFA local surrogate currency that impoverishes the people of local economy, is not the way to get Africa to enter the pearly gates of modernity.
Those who fight against the rabid Jihad rage of the destitute, are all corrupt surrogates of the French cum British cum American neo-colonial combine presence in DORMANT AFRICA, land of the naive and gullible; to ensure Western corporates can continue to economically rape the African people of their resources, in collusion with the local surrogate PTB !
Some conundrum when CIVILIZATION is the problem based on past performance, not the solution. So the Jihadists really are Charybdis to West's Scylla as far as the African people are concerned, as there is not the slightest drop of SEMEN of trickle down fertility from the proverbial corn of abundance of Uber man's modern wizardry of TPTB.
The West is NOT Harry Potter working to solve Africa's problems for common man.

thanx god we had this attack in paris so stocks could go up!
Market looked weird last few days. Seems like suckering in of last remaining retail investors. Volume and price behaviors not adding up. Dji behavior very strange. Looked like a good day yet really nothing but distribution all day and slowly. No price progress from open to close but crazy volume. And this announcement from font Monday. I think something is up
Retail is not being suckered in, this is why the market looks weird.
has anyone heard from Chanos?
504.00 PREVIOUS CLOSE 519.00 52WK RANGE 504.00 - 1,332.00 1 YR RETURN -62.16% YTD RETURN -35.55% Baltic is always wrong. mindblowing actually
Even the airlines are up, terrorism must be really bullish.
Its a fucking good job that at times like this Benny Hill, and his friends are on hand.

Wankers wanking what they wank best. Wank those stocks at a medium pace, no matter what. Wank until it hurts, wank some more.
I only trade when I'm drunk and angry now...I hear JPM is taking ISIS public with a US$10 trillion IPO so they can get WWIII started...I guess they're tired of waiting?
How do I hedge the unknown against the unquantifyable??

ZH asks another great question and approaches subjects that no one else will...
The military complex is drinking to the new businesses to come
War = big money for the banksters
Scavengers love corpses.
The market loves a bit of manufactured terrorism !
