We might still BK though - folks are jumping out the windows,
and there might be nobody left by the time the hilos arrive. -g-
These folks need some money NOW, so they are stock sellers
regardless of price. By the way, this BK in the bond land
seems to be much worse than anything we've seen before. Maybe
something like that was last seen in the 1930-s.

This is the key to the whole stock market dynamics, and that's
exactly what is happening now.

were forced to sell assets that were liquid and tradeable"

That's another link on this derivative melt. There will be
a battle between the Ben and Co hilo squad and a huge ignited
derivative mess.

It does appear that the music has completely stopped there,
except for the funeral music, so I'm not going to assume
Ben has won the battle again. Nevertheless, the market
could very well be dippable since it is very oversold, and
it should rally sharply when they see Ben squad out there.
The mess does have a very bad odor and smells very 1929-ish -ng-

We talked about huge derivative nuke for some time on this thread, and here
is the blast, IMHO. Who knows how long it takes to spread to
stocks, or if the Ben and CO hilo squad successfuly extinguishes
the fire for now.
