I tend to agree on this!

It could be tool to pull off the dogs rather than divert.

I was looking for the right word and “insider trading” is wrong. This appears to be controlled market collusion. Send out a sell signal and let it drop just enough to panic people. People who didn’t sell and are holding long term are still up for the year. Profits were made today so no major problem in the long game.

But if enough rich democrats start selling then we could have problems.

If they own enough stock, they can tank the stock market, but they cannot cause a depression without fucking with the money supply. Unless they have a way to drastically tighten the money supply, the worst that can be expected would be a continued recession, not a depression.

The great depression was not due to the stock market crash, it was because the banks tightened the money supply, followed by the EO to confiscate the alternative money (e.g. gold). History cannot repeat this time, because, even if they can figure out a way to tighten the dollar (which would be a miracle, because there's so many dollars wanting to come back to the U.S. anyhow), they would also have to outlaw alternative money... in this case... crypto (e.g. Bitcoin and Ethereum).

The stock market is tied to interest rates, and interest rates are tied to unemployment. When unemployment goes down, interest goes up. Last week's jobs report announcing the creation of millions of job caused interest to go up and the stocks to dip.

I don't believe anything sinister is going on. This is a normal correction after the record setting year on Wall Street.

I've actually thought this for the last year, I don't think the bit coin prices skyrocketing and plummeting is a coincidence either.

Remember George Soros moved a massive sum of cash not to long ago.

They want a war.

Fucking this, and only this. They don't drop the stock market to distract people. They only make moves this big when they want war. War is the only thing that will make them more money than they lose while causing a recession.

Good point about tomorrow. But I have a feeling the market is gonna float a day or 2 pending on the meToo memo. Today was just a shot across the bow.

I wonder who gave the sell signal?

Smart man, a market like this is an opportunity not a problem and buying by more people will turn the market around and then the little people will have good cheap stock and the rich firms will not have the opportunity to buy it off when it's cheap if everyone else does first. It's a planned drop in my opinion with massive profit taking then a huge buyback with those profits with the big boys buying back large amounts of stock at bargain prices and still have a ton of cash left from the selloff of high priced stocks.

Smart as always buddy!

New fed chairs usually trigger a sell-off

I was trying to find out what triggered this but the news is quite on what was selling big to trigger this. I probably need to dig harder but normally even msnbc gives out big sell offs.

The increase rates is the closest I found. But nobody is talking about that yet! It’s just speculation that they will increase because how well the economy is doing. Granted a rate increase will likely happen to slow the growth.

Could you clarify your 2nd sentence?

The biggest problem I see with the interest theory is that it would have to come from foreign investors since super bowl is still on peoples’ brains until after lunch. Patriots lost! The Eagles has control the whole game. Brady got hit and fumbled (not really his fault) etc etc ...

What is missing is that Schumer was threatening about his meToo memo on Friday. But still, it all comes down to who was giving sell sell signals. No company had a bad report and even Apple was ok with sales down and revenues up. So who?

A conspiracy could be that dem leaders sent out a distress call and triggered a sell off and the media played it up by flashing breaking news which pushed it to almost -1600 for the day. There was a come back but that was probably were the news hammered it back down. The conspiracy could be “insider trading” but in reverse mode.

Anyway ... there is just too much lack of data.

Do you have a source detailing the interest hike, when it was, and on what?

I'm dreadfully incompetent today, and can't find it myself.

No way an interest rate change would cause that kind of drop. This is a manipulation intended to cripple Trump and to blame him.

Upvote for being technically correct.

But consider that Nixon quit his job over simple tapping and a slush fund.

Today we have FBI doing the wiretapping, the DOJ writing off on it due to major players wanting it done, massive amounts money moving and way more than 69 players in the game.

Treason - The betrayal of one's own country by waging war against it or by consciously or purposely acting to aid its enemies.

What isn't treasonous about working for the deep state? What isn't treasonous about uranium one, or white genocide, or arming and using MS13 as a political hit squad? What isn't treasonous about intelligence agencies and DOJ subverting the constitution to fix elections?

Wasn't it one administration knowingly used false information trying prevent another administration from taking over?

I’m sure their reporting added fuel ;-)
