“Someone” is getting desperate.
Throughout the last week, anytime stocks have begun to correct or drop, “someone” has bought S&P 500 futures to prop the market up.
Anyone who’s been involved with the markets for a while knows the difference between real buyers and manipulation. This is manipulation plain and simple.
Look at all those “V” rallies. Three days in a row stocks opened DOWN and someone immediately stepped in and began buying aggressively.
Another tell-tale sign of manipulation: the buying halts almost the moment stocks get to 2,100 on the S&P 500. At this point the manipulation ends. And because there are few REAL investors buying stocks at these levels, the market immediately retreats.

The Fed will be singing a different tune if Trump gets elected. Yellen and company are going to lower the boom on him. That’s for sure.
Hopefully we can solve those ancient riddles this election. The Bear will end up being an Orthodox. The Pope will be sent to the crapper out in the woods. And the US president will stop lying. All it will take is one election and sending a few thousand NeoConvicts to jail.
The Fed is holding a ton of bonds. What happens to the value of those bonds when rates rise? They are going to take some serious losses.
Now you know why they won't allow rates to rise... when they should.
Also, if rates rise (1) the interest on the national debt goes up and (2) the resulting economic slowdown will hurt Dems. Yes, the Fed has painted itself into a corner.
I couldn’t agree more. Although I will say at this point I don’t see it as the beneficence of those feeling they are doing the right thing. I think we are looking at the machine propping up the Marxists and Obama hoping to elect the successor (Hillary) to finish the socialist conversion.
Sounds as if the next POTUS may have to start printing greenbacks.
Yes.
So wait for it to drop again, buy index shares, then put a sell order in for when it gets near $2,100. Might as well draft in the wake of whoever is doing the manipulating :)
Well, thank God for that reassurance.
Yes the Fed is buying up stocks and they have been doing for 5-6 years. Its manipulation just like the gold market is manipulated.
The cause of the high valuations in the stock market is low interest rates. There is simply nowhere else to go.
If interest rates ever go up, the market could be down 20% in a week.
I think you meant to say the Fed has printed itself into a corner.
LOL, that was inadvertent.
ZeroHedge is a POS source of distorted or fake information.
I agree with your assessment. By the way, in the aftermath of the Great Depression, Joe Kennedy and his Democrat elites bought up private and national assets for pennys on the Dollar.
Almost, except for some retirement assets. I almost expect those to be stolen at some point once things crash. It isn’t lunatic thinking.....they will do it. Even our bank savings can now be confiscated to “pay for” a derivatives collapse. Look it up. John Boehner and Paul Ryan rammed that through in 2015. How much do you think they were paid for that deal? I am guessing it was tens of millions. Traitors.
I trust the Fed’s published balance sheet as much as Mexican tap water. Drink away my friend.
The Fed will then fold, and the IMF will be King of the Earth, which is EXACTLY what the elites are trying to accomplish. The SDR will be the new one, global currency. Watch.
There's certainly a lot of opinion in ZeroHedge - but many articles are very factual. Care to tell us where you get your expert information?
There is “somewhere else to go.” It is called stop bowing to corruption and greed and stop “investing” in a sham. But greed is a powerful temptation and sin. Always has been throughout human history.
