It appears the machines will have their work cut out today to keep the 'green for 2015' dream alive today as the last 30 minutes have seen selling accelerate across stock and commodity markets with bonds and the dollar bid.
Stocks are suddenly offered...
And VIX well bid...
Crude is tumbling again...
And Copper is getting slammed...
As The Dollar surges (EUR drops)...
And bonds are bid...
Keep dreaming - you can do it!! 2058.90 is all that matters now!

paper games r fun to watch...
The more Crude tumbles the more Tanker shipping stock will rise...
Give those machines $15/hour......NOW!
the massively-HUGE long-only funds gonna run over the algo shorts into the close IMO. no way they gonna let this tape close red on the year. nobody around today - they have too much to lose NOT to sacrifice some client-cash in-order to make their years appear better. fresh $$$ goes into the market next week, then we probably catch a few days where the floor falls-out due to the fresh $$$ rally fizzling out, either end of next week or 2nd week january. JMO.
"fresh $$$" - LOL
I'm trying to visualize "fresh $$$". Is that anything like 'whirrled peas'?
im just referring to their beginning of year fund-flows. happens every year whether markets up or down the year before, or what the mindset is going forward. i expect the same thing in 30 days when alot of these guys can buy-back the tax loss stocks they want to re-own.
I can guarantee you 100% that the Federal Reserve's Plunge Protection Team will be pushing the market green today.. They need to do with this for psychological reasons to push the market green into 2016. I guarantee you this is what's happening behind the scenes.
The Federal Reserve is desperate to keep investors from losing confidence in this market despite the bad economic data.
If you don't think the Plunge Protection Team is real you should read this..

Is the PPT back from Quanzaa yet?!?
Games over for these fucks, there have been major sellers causing mini flash crashes the last 2 days.. Monday and all next week there will be HUGE selling pressure coming, and I don't even think they can keep it green for the year today.. Watch for mini flash crashes this afternoon as some sellers try to get a head start on the dumping.. So at least in the short term, the control will be over..
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck defend the line! Defend the LINE!
I can't wait to Waterloo these fed fuckfaces
Is cheater site Ashley Madison actually growing by over a million users per month?http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2015/12/is-cheater-site-ashley-madiso...
In one of 2015's most sensational hacks, a group called Impact Team dumped the real names and credit card information associated with 39 million accounts from cheater dating site Ashley Madison. And yet, despite the public shaming of prominent men who paid to join the site and several lawsuits against the company, Ashley Madison claims that it has added 4 million members in the months since the hack.
But why would anyone join a cheater site knowing that they risk exposure? Is this a case of the Internet having a ridiculously short memory? Of horniness overcoming good sense? Or is it just another trick played by a company whose brand has become synonymous with using bots to plump up its membership numbers?
Company reps refuse to disclose how they came to the 4 million number, saying merely "we do not have any updates to share." However, based on a four-part investigation of the data dump I published earlier this year, we have strong evidence that the company created at least 70 thousand fake female profiles called "engagers" to chat up curious men who joined the site for free. Bots created by developers at Ashley Madison would use these fake profiles to send men messages and e-mails—which the men could only read if they signed up for a paid account. Apparently, the bots were so successful that they accounted for 59 percent of conversions to paid accounts (see the "engager vs. female" chart in this article).
Aha! --> The US may well be alone with shortened trading hours in U.K., France, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal, Belgium; markets closed in Italy, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Switzerland, Austria, Germany.

15:30 ramp for the win! Skittles and Unicorns until Tuesday.
I have a few wishes for the New Year...
I hope that the PPT fails to keep stocks in the green for the year. I want them to TRY, but fail. I want them to go into the long weekend at year's end with a good solid FAILURE, and the spend several days thinking about what 2016 might bring.
I don't want Obama to leave office before he sees the results of his economic "strategy"...he came into office as this thing was gearing up, and did NOTHING. He tried to create the illusion of recovery even as he watered the seeds of the next crisis. He should not be able to walk away from it, and leave it to the next President. I want it to hit him full in the face BEFORE he leaves...let THAT be his 'legacy'.
And I would love to see debt collapse big-time...lots and lots of defaults. I want to see the end of the whole "moral hazard" argument when it comes to debt...that argument was only ever applied to the little guy anyway, the wealthy never agonized over this particular moral hazard, why should the rest of us? Let's ALL get on board with the 1%'ers attitudes towards debt! After all, they have all the money and we're broke, so who has the better attitude here?
And the collapse should be so huge, and so painful, that debt as an economic policy will be as good as dead for several generations. Debt should be seen as the slow-acting poison it really IS...time for the attitudes to do a 180, and for that we need PAIN, real pain.
wrell "some folks" better get used to this cause today is what 2016 is going to look a lot like
