It would be interesting to see what stock trades and short sales ABC executives made as the market fell. SEC violations afoot?

We already have laws about falsely shouting fire.

It’s far from clear what caused the sudden market drop yesterday.

Blaming ABC may actually be the false shouting of ‘fre’.

Should be a simple matter to see who did what yesterday with what options.

350 drop is a whole lotta cash flying out the door. Besides the rise later that day.

Somebody made money. It wasn’t me.

If it turns out that Ross did this on purpose to personally profit from the market reaction, that has to be extremely criminal.

Somebody at the SEC should be investigating anyone who executed short sells during that time period.... I bet Soros’ name comes up.

Damn straight. Or sold call options or bought put options, or did any similar speculations with the indexes; futures, mutual funds. And not just during, but immediately prior to, as well.

I have never watched the view, and never will. I watched the video with my sound off, just so I don’t have to listen to that witch

Yes I watched, or rather listened to Fox News when that was announced.

A lib acquaintance on Facebook was celebrating yesterday that Sally Yates was right. The best part of this for me is imagining her salt lava of tears today.😂

> it recovered but not completely

Unless you had a sell-if-goes-below order with your broker. Then you took it on the chin.
