Crediting the derivative players--they need more credit.

It's been said before, and I'll say it again...the derivative market is the tail wagging the dog that yanks the underlying stock market into wild extremes.

Oh, the market would still rise and fall into extremes, but not so wildly nor so extremely. When vast amounts of monies are at stake over an investment that has TIME value limits, it HAS to create wild extremes. One cannot afford to hold a contrairy position in derivatives as you can with stocks.
