AWESOME....rewind Aug. 2007, option expirations week, some dude has a 2 billion? dollar bet, the CON game is going to unravel and is loaded in puts....market is tanking....here comes bernanke first thing Friday morning option expiration week....cuts discount rate....stocks skyrocket.....rewards the losers.

The inevitable was only delayed by about 2 months.

Rewind three weeks ago....options expiration week....the CON game is about to unravel....talk of second? stimulus....some dude has an 800k? bet on the VIX....head and shoulder pattern busted....market is tanking....then market shoots straight up on questionable earnings and economic reports....losers rewarded again. AWESOME.

Inevitable delayed again?

Tick, tock, tick, tock....
