Here’s the bottom line: Someone tried to rescue the market last Wednesday. And it’s becoming a regular occurrence.

2008? Republican ticket pulling ahead in the polls?

The stock market is fixed. If you're not in on the fix, good luck. If you are, may you reap your reward in the afterlife.

The stock market is rigged and anyone who has a few smarts knows it.
You have about 1 year (+-) to prepare for the Fed interest rate rise. That is when things will get tough and the major problems will start.
That 17 trillion tab we’ve been amassing will have to be paid back with higher interest rates.
It’ll be about 20 trillion by next year with our bombing of ISIS, added healthcare costs, and maybe an attack or two.
If you haven’t prepared you’d better start now. When the debt comes due, and taxes go up to cover the expense, the rebellion will start.

But this is just one more of “the levers of a managed economy”. Read, “I Pencil.”

>> the CME Group, the exchange in Chicago, has an incentive program under which foreign central banks could buy stock market derivatives like the S&P contracts at a discount.

Now please close the loop and explain exactly how buying *derivatives* “props up” the market.

I’ll wait patiently.

This post was from Oct. 2014. But it could have been about yesterday....couldn't it?

Yesterday was some sort of turnaround record in the last hour or so of trading since 2011.
