5000 long and the fed....

First of all, this is pure speculation that the fed did this.

Second, we are then solidly in the realm of conspiracy theories, that someone in the government is manipulating the market. And doing it secretly, covertly.

Like, maybe, only Alan G. and one other person even knows!!! Don't you think it is just a little far fetched that a small group of people in the government could secretly use vast sums of money to manipulate the the entire market, turn it on a dime, yet leave no record and have the whole thing remain secret?

Sort of like Oli North in the White House, I guess. Or the secret CIA within a CIA from Three Days of the Condor.

If this is true, how long will the conspirators keep the market up and rising? What will the first signs be that they are out of their positions, short and ready to let it fall?
