In other words we will see a generalized collapse in all United States governmental functions. I also think we will see serious disruptions in the basic fabric of society, what I call the physics of modern life.You sheeple! The world DID come to an end, but THEY are covering it up.

Shhh! "THEY" are here. Really! Quick! Quick. Look behind you! There "THEY" are!
Darn! You were not quick enough! But I saw "THEM". Just like I always do!
Hey! Did you hear that? Shh! What!? "THEY" are in my keyboard. I recently discovered that like many keyboards, mine is directly connected to Rush Limbaugh's implant. He moves the keys with his brain. It's like one of those pianos that play themselves. The keys go up and down, up and down.
Gotta go. Watch for "THEM"! "THEY" are everywhere...
It would take "both hands" for him?
Oh, please, at least one sentence of this should be entered in the annual Bulwer-Lytton contest: It was a dark and stormy night
142 years and they're not done yet? These oligarchic schemers is MIGHTY SLOW, ain't they?
I AM NOT dead!
Monty Python rules!
Last time I looked, it was legal to be short. It takes both buyers and sellers to make a viable market. I don't know if there was any intervention or not, but if there was it probably caused a huge transfer of wealth from one group to another. Is this a free market? Did anyone know if the intervention would occur ahead of time? Is this nothing but common thievery if it did occur? Just for the record, I have been out of the markets for some time now, and am merely trying to observe objectively.
True enough. But that doesn't translate to a legal guarantee of financial benefit from a short (or a long) position.

No argument.

Any action in the market is an "intervention."
However, if every talking head is saying that the market's trend will continue on its present course forever without end, that's a sign that the market is about to reverse course.

You've jumped from "I don't know if there was an intervention" to "there was an intervention, there was skulduggery behind it, and they didn't cut me in on the action."
Is this nothing but common thievery if it did occur?
If it is as you describe, yes. However, when everyone says the market is going to go up or down without end, that's the sign that the market is about to reverse direction.
But that doesn't translate to a legal guarantee of financial benefit from a short (or a long) position.
Couldn't agree more.

I agree, but it is unrelated to my post.

This is not the message I intended to send. I was trying to say that IF their was a fed intervention and the shorts got creamed, it was not necessarily a noble gesture on the feds part. Shorts are participating in a legal activity and providing necessary liquidity to the market. I don't think it is the feds role to intervene in the market and cause a huge transfer of wealth and I question the entire event if indeed it did occur this way. I am neither short nor long, but I am sometimes very curious.
Enjoy.
Execution? Is it possible that's a little overboard?
When you call for the execution of the Fed chief in sentence one of paragraph two, you shouldn't expect many people to read the rest of the article.
:-(
We'll have to keep an eye out for your leftist drivel in the future.
