The Fed would argue they don’t ‘buy’ stocks. But, over the recent years the PPT has stepped in numerous times to ‘save’ US.

These are more like slave markets. Obama owns them and he’s not letting them go anytime soon.

If I were a real tinfoil type, I might hypothesize that the gov could do a stealth nationalization of major sectors of the economy just by triggering plunges like this where the PPT has to step in to buy up shares in order to buoy the market. Over time, they’d build up a majority stake in a lot of companies. Once they had stakes in most of the big firms, they could just make an announcement that they now controlled those firms, and there would be nothing anyone could do.

Another method for the socialists to transfer wealth from the private sector to the government.

The NY stock market is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the FedGov. There is no reason to trust it anymore.

Its perfectly clear that stocks and investments are now a rigged con game, and unless you have access to the big boy circles where they all insider trade, you are Barnums sucker.
unless you are a Harvard man, or Ivy League man, forget you bub! This Ivy League /Harvard $$ crap has got to be stopped...ASAP. That's right, you heard me right.

According to Fox News the deep drop was caused by a wrong number being entered in a computer.
