My fictional (or maybe not) account of what happened this morning:

CME Group CEO answers phone: “Hello?”

 

Madman Bernanke: “Good morning Craig, you notice
anything missing?”

 

CME Group CEO: “Yes, my children are
gone.”

 

Madman Bernanke: “When you sent out that notice to
increase margin requirements, you actually meant decrease,
didn’t you? You do realize we only increase risk here in the US, right?
And you do want to see your children again, don’t you?”

 

CME Group CEO: “I will issue a……’clarification’
today.”

 

Madman Bernanke: “Glad to hear that. You children
will be at your front door in 5 minutes.”

I’m with ya ACP, I am getting tired of this market. What was once a favorite hobby of mine since high school has now turned into the 1%’s rigged monopoly game. If I do well in this downturn & catch the bottom here, I’m just gonna buy one stock that pays dividends & just forget about it. No more looking at T&A, charts, news. I rather spend my time & energy with my family. 

Man, with all the BS going on here, I’m so tempted to just bail out into cash, fly to Nepal and watch the whole F****** world unravel while sipping tea and eating goat cheese with the locals in some monastery in the clouds.

It just gets to me, dammit!

Wow, then that’s bullish! SPX 1650 here we come!

This market is totally insane.

Yes, chasing the dragon is never good…

Plus hey, we haven’t had an artificial disaster for a while…

All planned out and timed perfectly, right when you least expect it. So much for the free market…

Several buyers at the close in big blocks.

The jet lag was a bitch. I was out of commission for 3 days. Basically stayed in the hotel. It would have been nice to have been hooked up with one one of your cousins. I just could not pay for sex, my spiritual values got in the way for any sexual pleasure.
