The NYSE needs to restore the program trading cubs that were in place up until November 2007. Those trading curbs would do a LOT to slow down frenzied trading, especially now with the high-frequency trading done with supercomputers.

Does a trading curb mean I'm not allowed to sell my stock if the price has changed too rapidly? Not sure I like the idea of not being allowed to sell.

With HF trading the stupid computers just create their own crash.

It is too late for the individual investor to get out. Especially MFs that won’t close until the end of the day.
