crashes are allways conducted in order for exchange insiders to prepare their inventories for a coming advance thats why all huge advances are preceded by crashes......think like a krinmnal

I'm well aware of such. If memory serves me REG SHO was also are result of 1987 well as the Madoff exception.

Then there's the circuit breakers.

However re circuit breakers: like any circuit break if it is not sized correctly re load, assymetrical etc yes it will be in place but not function. Then there's ensuring the fault current makes it to that circuit breaker. Fail to satisfy the former 250-51 and mr breaker will not activate and bye bye equipment or other.

Or yup many things were done in 1987, just as they did after 1929: BUT.

How many times has a regulator failed to act. Why did they ban Naked Short Selling TWICE? Especially when there were those who said there was no such thing. Got to love it.

Yup the rules and regulators and cb's were in place but what happened to OL BSC as they took it down as lions on a water buffalo in 5 trading days.

Where was REG SHO FTD when GM was on the list for 90 DAYS.

I often say there are the strategies, the tactics and the mechanics of the market.

An informed investor is well served to understand the details.

So here we are in 2013 after living thru 1987,1991,1996, 2001, 2008 to which I say, What's Next? There's something out there. At some point it will pop it's nasty head.

This is written as an Objective perma bull.
