What you don't understand that a freeze is not simply a freeze. You can't make that debt disappear. If people are paying their mortgages, who is footing the bill. That is what you fail to understand. As somebody said, you would have to bail out the banks again for that to possibly work. Even for...

"push all you like my pretties, I'm going get you and your little bull too."

Denial is not just a river in Egypt. The size of it describes the size of people's delusions about it going away quickly. People hear businesses will close indefinitely and the market is unresponsive. That is pretty scary (what the market is doing), scarier than a collapse. Like the Zeppelin...

Correct. There is no free lunch as my Econ professor said. Whether or not somebody as an American, or a foreigner, like the Military Industrial Complex, the fact remains: other countries can spend on the war machine because the US—their ally—spends heavily. Who was it that sent the navy and B2s...

Economy metrics? :rolleyes::rolleyes: Try these economic numbers on for size: cities and counties receive a portion of the sales tax from the BOE of the State. Cities receive a TOT/hotel tax from hotels and the like, at least in California. It can be as much as 14% in cities like San Francisco...

Agreed not to mention that most orders on robin hood probably don't even make it to the actual market. They are likely traded against Robin Hood or order flow is directed to specific MMs. Retail traders don't have direct access. Brokers like TDAmeritrade had disclosures years ago if you read the...

Interesting pattern emerging lately

That is interesting. We should revisit this post next week! :D:sneaky:

Thanks. I took a screenshot for safekeeping next week.

A legend in your mind. Right because hedge fund managers waste talking on a blue peter forum. :rolleyes:

It is you who is in the wrong. It was not a straw man. @zdreg pointed out the obvious. You showed "implicit" expertise by typing a whole bunch of jargon you knew by yours and other posters' admissions that the OP couldn't follow what you were saying. Why else would you post such a pedantic post...

So on April 3, 2020 at 8:30 AM, we should be in for a surprise. Restaurants will lay off workers who likely don't have savings to make it a month much less the two weeks from now in which county-wide shutdowns of restaurants are taking place. What's the statistics: 90% of Americans don't have...

Provide liquidity? that type of volume is irregular for that instrument. I was looking at it which I already expained in my post. Yeah it is a statistical improbability that it was not one trade. The volume went from hundreds in a second to tens of thousands then back down. Secondly, you say...

?? San Francisco shelter in place. Advised not to go anywhere not an emergency. NYC. While it isn't a Chinese style lock down, it is a lock down.

Well, this is an interesting paradoxical turn of events. The administration doesn't want to hurt the economy, but you wouldn't know it from their actions. They say that the economy will be fine and all that is required is to give the airline industry $50 billion, yet why are they so worried...

Funny how Goldman Sachs said they thought it wouldn't reach 2450 for a few months. We breached that level only a few days after they said that. Now they say 2,000. Whatever any analyst or banks says is their target, subtract a few hundred points.

A third volatility trading halt. S&P 500 should be in the 2,300s if they get around to updating it. Of course you could always export it from IB like this image and calculate it manually.

That choice is do like Germany and pay banks to take money and loan it out.

exactly.
