I think you missed the point entirely. The discussion is about the distance from an exchange and the speed that super computers are using to have an unfair advantage over other investors. They're literally working on a method where they can trade in the past, not just microseconds and nanoseconds in the future. These computers can crash the market (flash crash) and force prices up or down without actually investing in the market by pulling their buys and sells before they're executed.
