I'm not remotely a pro, so I don't have access to it. From what I was told by a pro, the buying comes in huge spikes in SP500 e-mini futures. Here is a first-hand story from a pro: financialsense.com financialsense.com I have communicated both with John, who submitted it, and with the guy who typed this, who is a pro. It is a year old, but then again, this one source buying has been going on for a while, creating all sorts of anomalies, which are not supposed to exist in free markets. The pro-s knew it first. Here is some stuff from the Fed, which shows possible manipulation: dallasfed.org Here is the law which makes such actions criminal: landru.i-link-2.net Here is Puplava summary of it: "In last year's Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas research paper titled “Monetary Policy in a Zero-Interest-Rate Economy,” Evan F. Koenig, Vice President, and Jim Dolmas, Senior Economist, argued that given the failure of conventional policy options, extraordinary measures may be necessary. They suggested modifying standard Fed policy. Chief among them was the purchase of assets that are not perfect substitutes for money. They suggested possible candidates: 1. Foreign exchange 2. Real goods and services 3. Other domestic securities [4] They further state that perhaps the simplest option is to buy domestic securities. Taking that a step further, they pose the idea of allowing other assets such as corporate bonds, commercial paper, equities and mortgages. What you have here is the groundwork for monetizing assets during the next downturn when we reach zero interest rates. There is a growing contingent within the financial community that believe that the miraculous turn-arounds that take place in the markets that originate from the futures pit is an example of this type of intervention. On Wall Street it is the equivalent of “Don’t ask. Don’t tell.” The cognoscente on Wall Street winks and turns their eye. Yet everyone knows, when they say that a large buyer stepped in and bought futures, who that is. Monetizing financial assets is simply another way of expanding money and credit in the financial system that may become part of standard policy if times get rough." financialsense.com Here is the information on who benefits from the criminal Fed actions: financialsense.com
