Paul, Do you watch CNBC? I can not believe what I just heard Tom C. say on the air. He just answered the question of who has been feeding him his lines.
If I understood him right, ONE person. That's right ONE person has been the mouth of CNBC from the floor of the Nasdaq for DAYS.
CNBC ought to look at how people are brain washed. You repeat something until someone starts to believe it as fact, you re-enforce behavior (eg Banners: "Nasdaq at session lows" etc, anchors acting like the world is coming to an end, etc).
Nothing changed in the markets except CNBC starting with Abby, has "programmed" so that the sky is falling. Nothing has changed except a slow, not so subtle brain washing by MMs and talking heads who regurgitate what they have been fed, as fact.
I still can not believe ONE person's views were reported as fact, what WILL happen, by Tom for so long. He ought to be relieved from reporting until he learns what "self fulfilling prophecy" is. All on CNBC show be aware of how their medium is USED.
Proof positive, control the media, control the markets or what ever else you like.
909S, BLUE
PS Are you watching the DOW come in as the Nasdaq drops? The MMs might just get a little more than they asked for. :o)

Talking Head Tom continues to spew. Tom was just on regurgitating what he has just been fed. With panic in his voice Talking Head Tom tries to talk us into another 10%.
Jack @ GE, please have Tom removed from the Nasdaq wall. His unprofessional "sky is falling or going to fall" reporting has got2go.
His hype needs to end, now. If world markets fall from here I truly do hope the SEC looks into the role CNBC has played. Just have them pull the tape from Friday.
DOW, dumped, Nasdaq down over 300, I hope the MMs are happy.
Shame on CNBC.
