EPIC PLUNGE: -633.78, 6th Largest Drop In Dow Jones History

Tyler Durden's picture




 

And there you have it: following last Thursday's massive 500 point drop which so many said was a buying opportunity, here comes a -633.78 plunge in the DJIA, which is the 6th largest absolute point drop in Dow Jones Industrial Average history, following 4 larger drops in 2008 following the Lehman bankruptcy, and one back in 2002. We just made history. If the DJIA can drop more than 800 points tomorrow, which it probably will if Bernanke does not announce QE3 in some form, 2011 will be #1!

And in other news, the VIX soared a ridiculous 50% to 48 for the biggest jump since 2007.

My brother got me into this stuff a few years ago. I have been learning everything I could get my hands on since. After all my future is at stake, kinda important.

I know about Rothbard because Ron Paul recommend him in both his latest books "The Revolution" and "End the Fed".

I have no position in BofA so I will say what I have observed today. I am a pilot and I witnessed a charter flight roll up to a FBO with a bunch of legal begals from a certain firm that specializes in Title 11 USC stuff from a certain state to a certain city in NC so I think things are going to go ape shat soon. It could be an unrelated matter but the timing is to suspect.  Again, just an observation not a confirmation and I have no position in BofA or any of its subsidiaries or any stock for that matter.

LJS,

Does this mean,  YOU do not buy anything but Silver here?.

Seems like the biatchez take it down everytime it goes past $40-$42.

I have been in front of Kitcos 30sec changes most of th day, and Silver has sat at $39.00 ALL DAY,until a minute ago, up $0.10.

Frigging joke.........should have moved to $45/48 today.

Silver is now 39.02 after grazing above 40 today before the pullback.

It's still up from Friday's close of 38.32

I have Gold too. I got in at $12 Silver and $700 Gold. I remember the same resistance at other levels too, but they were passed. $19 was tough as was $22. Then it zoomed up to $36 where epic battles were fought but it too fell. Now the line is $40 but this too will be breached. Anyone still playing this game after May's "Battle of the Bulge" Silver take down using multiple margin Nuke Strikes are battle hardened veterans and are prepared for margin hikes again even if they go to 100%. When Silver explodes to over $50 one night in Asia it will be over for them as their shorts are called in and all they have to show is counterfeit paper IOU's.

I dunno, I can't help thinking this is a classic stage by the stooges. In exchange for not prosecuting S&P, the WH has S&P downgrade the Treasuries (easy to control-just widen the curve) and set the excuse for QE3. The timing of all this seems so strange. Anybody else in for the conspiracy theory?

"The VIX rose over 50% to 50. The FT Alphaville (hat tip reader Scott) point out that the VIX is backwardized. From their chat with Christopher Cole of Artemis Capital (boldface theirs):"

"In regard to VIX futures curve backwardization since 2004 the front two contracts of the VIX futures curve have traded at a discount to spot VIX approximately 25% of the time. Currently the entire VIX futures curve shows inversion and this shape has only occurred 13% of the time since 2004. Negative convexity across the entire curve usually only occurs during systematically important shock events such as the 2008 financial crash, Bear Stearns bankruptcy, 2010 flash crash, and the 2007 credit market meltdown.

It is important to understand the fundamental and structural dynamics underlying VIX futures curve inversions. The traditional explanation is that VIX futures curve backwardization implies the market’s expectation of volatility mean reversion or that the VIX will decline from elevated levels. An alternative explanation is structural, implying that investors who bought VIX futures and options as tail risk insurance are now all rushing to “cash-in” on the payout at the same time, artificially pushing the curve downward.

This may explain the mixed forecasting record of the VIX futures curve in backwardization as the spot VIX has breached the discounted VIX futures price to expiry only 62% of the time since 2004. The average duration of a VIX futures curve backwardization is only 4 days, however when the entire curve in backwardization implying a systematically important event, the curve can exhibit negative convexity for much longer periods including 64 consecutive days of full curve inversion during the 2008 financial crisis.

Tax avoidance 0, Obama tax increases on the wealthy 1. We did get our 1000 point drop after all!  So now let's do the math: trillions lost in cap value, few nickels saved in lower taxes. Happy! But, that's not the end of it.

The real shit will hit the fan when the elites wake and find out that the peons can no longer support the economy nor afford to pay all the taxes. You can gut all the Social Security and Medicare you want, that'll just speed up the collapse. Oh and all your gold, good luck finding anyone with a nickel to distribute to.

I firmly believe that this market will go lower whatever shinanigans they get up to.  Just wish I had the guts to be short last week!

Is The World Going Bankrupt ?

US At Risk of Double-Dip Recession

The wrangling over raising the US debt ceiling led the country to the edge of a financial disaster, and the deal reached seems like a band-aid on a torn jugular. A total of $2.4 trillion is to be saved over a period of 10 years, but that's not much given the debt today already amounts to a barely imaginable $15 trillion and will probably have reached $20 trillion in a decade.

The US has been living above its means for years. The wars in Afghanistan and elsewhere, the world's most expensive healthcare system, costly stimulus programs -- the US kept on paying for it all with borrowed money. It worked as long as the economy kept on growing and flooded the state coffers with tax revenues. But now those coffers are empty, and the planned spending cuts couldn't come at a worse time.

After maybe (maybe emphasised) on a coming relief rally; which will be more of a extreme swing trade. China's commodity consumption appears to be pluging, copper down 11%. That's a major global recession indicator

oops...someone else picked this up above... I wonder if the Brotherhood of Ancient Devil Bankers also caught the message?

 

Hopefully they were not too busy sacrificing a few Greek virgins (or a mix of Irish, Italian, Spanish virgins...).

Where the hell are you going to find virgins in any of those countries?

"Where the hell are you going to find virgins in any of those countries?"

At the pre-K daycare centers?

Quick question:

Wouldn't QE3 have to be approved the US congress and senate? If QE3 is launched, it would have to be 2-3X bigger than QE1 was? How is that going to work in a deadlocked government?  I fail to see how a TARP 2 would make it through your govenment

QE is entirely at the discretion of the Fed; i.e., Rothschild, Warburg, Bernanke and Co. TARP - another direct taxpayer bailout of TBTF banks - is now the LAW, as per Dodd-Frank. The Ponzi Masters have all bases covered. Too bad the stadium is on fire.

Whe the herd smells fear, they will stampede for the exits. Prediction- the bloodbath will continue tomorrow. What can PPT do? Where will the QE3 come from? Every action  now will only exacerbate the situation. Flight to  treasuries is no more than everyone running for the end of the ship that is still above water. The life boats are made of gold, bichchchez...or, arable land and a team of draft horses.

Don't the poor innocent farmers usually get pillaged by roving bands of heavily armed mauraders in the movies?

Kinda like what happened in Mad Max?

cnbc has a useless affirmative action, pear shaped chink slob with broken teeth, a brown, wetback ass kisser, a homo jude law clone, a kike from the upper east side, and cramer explaining the world and the markets to me via some b movie script as if I am a child.  "Markets in Turmoil"

This is awesome in how bad it is.  It is equally great that it is coming to an end and that the jews have hung themselves again.

I guess if you're gonna go for new records, might as well make it a good one.  Why stop at -800? Let's go for.................. -1000!!!!!!!!! YEA!

A record drop would only deserve a record stimulus.

Joe average will be jerking off the dog to feed the cat after what's left of his 401 K is turned into Patriot Act T Bonds! Dip yer IRA oars into the water, and PULL for the SS Great American Dream, you scum, or Cap'n Bernankus will flay the skin off yer hides - oh, wait, he'es going to do that anyway. SO, PULL!

They're going to lurch from one debt disaster to the next debt disaster. That's the future of national governments and central banks.

Printing more currency to buy more government debt, steadily debasing the currency, is a safe trade because it's a sure trade.

When they reach a debt milestone there's wailing and gnashing of teeth. "Oh god, we've hit 20 triilion of debt, how did we ever let this happen?" Then they go right on printing more currency, buying more debt, heading to the next milestone.

For this ponzi scheme to continue, national governments must maintain stellar credit ratings.

Downgrade of a sovereign credit rating is an act of terrorism ...in their view.

S&P down 6.66% in a day, breaking below the March 2009 low of $666 priced in gold.

That's really bad JuJu!
