Not more than 10 minutes after, repeat, after, I wrote the post linked below, the market dropped precipitously.

Message 26515519

The Force is now said to haver taken hold of some idiot Citi trader, and made him punch a 'b' instead of a 'm' when executing trades.

Nonsense, it doesn't work that way......The Force simply makes things happen as they should, and it was clanging emergency bells inside my skull all day long. There are too many reasons for what happened today that don't depend on an idiot trader's mis-execution of a single trade.

Long live The Force.

I was nicely green today.
