If you think that this market is "normal" - take a look at volume numbers early in the morning :
over 20.000 contracts spent to protect 6024.00...LOL ! So which desk is playing little dirty games here ? 100 % several "collaborative" partners !

I could not sleep this night because I was over-leveraged but all went fine. Asia shoot up, Europe is up, US will dump it but I made my money.
I guess, these 20k contracts can have something to do that dax is no longer leading index and overperformed compared to US.
I have some worthless calls but who knows maybe they end up in the money in this market.

Ackermann droht Ãrger mit der Postbank
Als die Deutsche Bank vor zwei Jahren bei der Postbank eingestiegen war, schien es der groÃe Coup zu sein. Doch nun könnte die Postbank umso mehr zur groÃen Belastung werden. Schuld ist der Stresstest. Es droht sogar der Gang zum Bankenrettungsfonds Soffin. Das wäre nicht zuletzt für Deutsche-Bank-Chef Ackermann eine Horrorvorstellung.

It seems, Postbank has some troubles. And Deutsche seems undercapitalized. Lately, they received FDIC letter accusing them they are undercapitalized in the US of A...

Market participants need to recall from time to time why derivatives markets exist. It´s about hedging for the large players and about minimizing stock and index volatility.
During times of stress, fund managers ( and execution traders ) are more willing to pull the trigger than during times of positive news flows.
Of course, mutual fund managers use derivatives also to spice up their performance ( in Europe and Germany it´s rather limited due to investment policy and regulative restrictions ).
Anyway, we are now at a critical point of the index markets. Will sovereign debts have a significant influence on company profits ?
Well, I don´t think so in the short term ( next 8-12 weeks ). But the next weeks macro data will give us a clue where we are heading.
