"Thanks to machines that
explore everything under the sun, risk
has become one trade. What was not correlated is now correlated,
so all markets melt down together (and come out of meltdown
together). Actually, this is pretty bad."

Worse than bad, it actually means that
all markets are not working as a price
discovery mechanism, which was the intent.
They are making the prices themselves. -ng-

As for the "PPT", having fed the derivative
bubble they had to know they would be
getting the same result as if they were doing
it themselves. It also implies that WS has
really taken over the Govt. in a way few
understand. And when it all blows, which I
think you and I agree on that it already has
it becomes only a matter of time til it collapses.
