Watching the end of the trading day on Fox Biz when the market dropped from 300 to 103 in two minutes. Trader told Liz Claman that the rumor is going around the trading floor that there may be a coup underway in China, and troop movements are being reported in Beijing. It was funny watching a trader hand news to a journalist.
Claman was caught flat-footed. Fox hasn't done anything about the rumor in the five minutes it was reported. Nothing on Drudge about China yet.

That about sums it up I think!
Wow ... down 204 pts.
Also heard that they may be moving troops to the Korean border.
This should help get the price of oil up a little.
Bad egg noodles .. That’ll do it every time.
Probably not, but no matter what is said now by appeasers and greed mongers, China is a banana republic. The PRC has never been anything other.
The leader is the person and clique (as they call them) that has the loyalty of the military.
Now, if there is suddenly a LOT of PLA soldiers around Beijing or Shanghai, then something big is going on.

Susan Rice enroute over cyber attacks.. Who knows what else?
Certainly not security.
It will b interesting see what Asia and Europe do now.
Sending Susan Rice the inept is just what Trump has been talking about.
That really was laugh out loud funny!
It it’s Rice, it must mean Obama is trying to find something else to surrender over.
Rice to China.
Coals to Newcastle.
me too, lol!! couldn’t figure out the connection.
It’s more of a expectation of a coup, I think...so any movement of troops, or military action of any kind will cause immense speculation.
DOOM OFF, folks....
China is moving equipment all over the country for the September 3rd Military parades celebrating the end of WW2
Trader told Liz Claman that the rumor is going around the trading floor that there may be a coup underway in China, and troop movements are being reported in Beijing.Sounds like a BS rumor. But AAPL was up in the early afternoon, couple of bucks, closed down a couple of bucks.
And they just finished their 70th anniversary of the communist revolution a couple days ago.
Somebody should “virtually” bop the head of the person at Fox Business who started that rumor and sent the DJIA to a 205 point loss.
