No,

it is much more vast than that when you think of the holdings of not just The Houses but the funds as well. It is not a matter of making a few bucks. We are talking trillions of dollars in holdings here at stake on the whim of FEAR PSYCHOLOGY that absolutely can be controlled by the powers that be. If this was not the case we would be at 2000 or below on the Naz right now. I cannot imagine being in a market with my money based o just supply and demand peaks and valleys. That is exactly what MM's and the Houses are there for, and for this obligation they are discreetly given certain privileges. I love the fact that the Houses make fortunes by their Psychological moves, it gives me solace.
