That would be my bet. The NYSE was having issues in overnight trading, this morning's "glitch" aside.
Wall Street Journal, Time Warner, and some of the smaller hedge fund operators are impacted too, there are several DDOS attacks under way.
This is NOT a coincidence. Best bet is it's China but it could also be Iran. Last Summer Iranian hackers were VERY active.
I'm on vacation, waiting to get called back into the Bank I work at ......
The NYSE might be trying to be gamed by folks looking to recoup their three trillion dollar loss.
Yes, I see a murky connection to the market falls in China. They have enormous expertise in hacking and computer systems.
The United airlines outage also seems to be more than a coincidence.
This might be a small indication of great trouble to come.
