US stock market futures are ripping higher after the three-day holiday weekend.

Dow futures are up 300 points, S&P 500 futures are up 37 points, and Nasdaq futures are up 79 points. This makes up for all of what the markets lost on Friday.

There isn't any obvious single headline to explain Tuesday's move. But here are a few big headlines that certainly showed up on some traders' radars:

May be one last good chance to get out

Have read the smart money is gone already

You gotta figure the Chinese PPT is raiding the couch cushions for change pretty soon and our PPT, even with a now unlimited debt ceiling , may actually be composed of humans who will get cold feet once issued their bunker passes

What are they going to do this month?

You are probably looking at the actual cash market rather than the futures market. Since the cash market is not open yet, it is still showing Friday’s change which was down 272 on the day for the DJIA.

Someday it’s gonna be true! P
Seriously, look at the Chinese and world markets and US , Chinese and world debt in 1987, then compare then to now

Not to mention the level of animosity and hostility between US, Russia and China ( thanks obama)

The world financial markets more than ever are an extension of global war maneuvering

Where is the silver lining now?

No disrespect to my father who died some 15 years ago.

He was on his death bed in the hospital. He wanted to try to sit up. We helped him. Once he was sitting, we let go of him. As soon as we did, he started to lose his balance. His eyes went wide. His face was instantly animated with fear. Whatever reserves he had, he spent them in that moment to right himself. We helped him to return to a reclining position. That display of energy was his last. He fell asleep that evening and never woke up. He breathed his last the following morning.

I am watching the markets and remembering my father. The stories of their last days are the same.

The Commies pumped their state owned banks and financials full of Chinese taxpayer money, buying up all their shares during the close of their markets. It had been crashing steadily all night. Perhaps that is what is causing the lemming like reaction in our market today? But then China also released new data showing their imports and exports are even worse than predicted.

Our markets also seem to show this late-stage ramping up pattern, actually matching the markets in China very well which we know has state manipulation, which makes me wonder whether the US also has its own “plunge protection team” working to skew our perspective of the economy.

In reality, Obama has been bending over backwards (showing his promised 'flexibility') in helping Russia achieve their stated "new world goals" in areas of missile defense and nukes, plus a budget slashing of the US military.

We shall have to disagree on conspiracies

The news today about US successfully pressuring Bulgaria to disallow Russian military supply flights to Syria is actually very sobering

And to think, if only Putin allowed rainbow flags over the Kremlin barry might never have snubbed POTUS and imposed sanctions on Russia

So what happens when the USA led by a man with the temperament of a 14 year old takes on Russia, bows to China, and tries to make Iran his bff?

Russia and China are working together to take us down - they are the adults in the room
Major battle preps underway in the financial markets

You wonder about the PPT?

They start their job at about 10:30 AM and quit about 2:45
By 3:45 their lights are out
Watch the market

And Obama is helping them. He shares their new world order goals.
