Dear John,

The Plunge Protection Team (PPT) is the nickname for the President's Working Group on Financial Markets. It includes the Sec. Treasury, Chairman SEC, Chairman Fed. Res. Board and the Chairman of the Commodities Futures Trading Commission. It was founded in 1987 after the stock market crash to "ensure stability of financial markets".

Hope this helps,

Best regards,
