Gotta love ZERO RISK in the SP500 = $$$

Big gap down at the close, almost 40 dow points in like 2 mins, whewwwww.....

So up huge on Monday, down huge on Tuesday so Wednesday means up huge, buy after market and watch the huge gap up tomorrow morning. Only sold once today, my SOXS I bought yesterday, sold today at $11.86, that was it, sort of a boring today but do like these triple digit moves, I can't wait till we start getting 300-400 point swings, I can feel it coming soon along with the VIX surging into the 30's with the s$p earnings estimate dropping extremely hard and could be falling all year Im surprised to see the markets where they are, with the prediction of s$p earnings to be falling off a cliff the s$p should be down near october lows by now, way overbought if earnings have to come down throughout 2015.
 
Amazing record by the nasdaq

Tuesday marked the end of the first quarter for 2015. The Nasdaq posted gains of 3.48 percent for the quarter, marking the index's first nine-quarter winning streak. The S&P eked out its own nine-quarter run with a gain of 0.44 percent last quarter. Only the Dow was negative for the quarter.


Not 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6 or 7 or 8 but a 9 quarter winning streak. Thats crazy, 27 straight months....over 2 years without one quarter even being down, wow, thats QE at its finest.....without QE that record would have never existed, thank you again BUBBLE ben bernanke for another record. Wonder what would happen if it was a 9 quarter losing streak? Is that even possible with the fed bowing to wall street, I didn't think so....

S&P was down in January and was up in February and it seems that it will down in March (as of now). YTD is up about 1.5%

DOW is already in read YTD. S&P finished in red for march and is only 0.5% up YTD and it will be interesting how market will react in the coming days of the week. Market shows sign of exhaustion and there is no catalyst to push it higher.

That is my firm belief that market and specially NASDAQ and specially semiconductor sector is in super bubble.
 
did anyone pay attention to overnight futures? Dow was down 200 points overnight, and most of these losses have been recouped

this can only mean one thing - buy the dip

I saw them down 142 around 10:30 last night, I then woke up in the early morning hours and saw them recover more than 1/2 those losses. I thought the dow was going to open down over 200 points, it didn't, however this early morning selloff is looking fantastic. Loving the volatility, just sold some SPXS at $19.91 and bought some SPXL for the afternoon rally....in around $86.30.

Should be a good day overall, especially with this volatility, the more the better. Looking for a dip buying rally into the afternoon, SPXL now in the green for me :)

Something scary happened in the stock market, and what one analyst said about it was even scarier

By Sam Ro5 hours ago






S&P 500 futures were down by as much as 1.3% at about 9 p.m. ET. These particular futures contracts are among the most widely traded securities in the world.

It's also worth noting that this isn't like Twitter or some other single stock that might see big intra-day swings. S&P 500 futures contracts are tied to the S&P 500, and index of 500 companies. So a 1% move in a matter of seconds is a big deal.

"Selling increased after the contract slid below its average price over the past 100 days, with volume more than twice the five-day average for this time of the day," Bloomberg reported.

Analysts were left scratching their heads.

The move happened as China's official manufacturing PMI report was released. The headline index unexpectedly climbed to 50.1 in March from 49.9 in February. Anything above 50 signals expansion, so this wasn't terrible news.


the chart to the right from UBS' Julian Emanuel. As you can see, big crashes don't just happen. They're wild processes with big swings.

"The manic market movement — sharp plunges and even sharper surges — is not unlike the movement seen prior to major market tops in 2007 and 2000," Emanuel wrote in January.

Futures have recovered most of those earlier losses, so it doesn't look as if Wednesday's regular trading session will start too deep in the red.

While not everyone is predicting a major downturn, most stock market gurus warn that more volatility is coming.

Yeah right -- when the crash comes, there will be no articles like this. Everyone will just be stunned. Therefore, BTFD, as there is one bear left.
