Terrorism on Wall St??? Barry Ritholtz

Maybe the oil rich countries were pissed at how oil prices were manipulated down so they decided to do a little manipulating of their own as payback. Seriously though, when you have SWFs with trillions at their disposal, governments changing the rules from day to day and engaging in thier own PPT activities, and when these huge players have objectives other than just to make money on the trade there is really no point trying to trade a macro picture. Day trading rules right now.

Taxpayers all over the world will be hurting because of the credit crisis created in the US... people are pretty pissed about the house of cards that has just been blown over... Prepare for the "flow of resources" in the world to change significantly.

There is absolutely NO trust in the US among people "abroad" right now - and they WILL remember this, don't think otherwise.

Bing fucking go.

And I don't hold grudges. All of you that berated me, welcome to the fight. I'm sick to my stomach. I can feel the bile in the back of my throat. and it ain't about me.

Can you imagine? Can you imagine if Paulson didn't move? Can you just imagine what tonight would have looked like in Asia.

The error (sic) of the HedgeFund is over.
 
if it's true, it wasnt the arabs who knocked down the house of cards, it's the jews who built it (in the first place) that did the terrorism

Blitzer was pushing this theory too

I'm sick and tired of being caught between Jews and arabs

If we wereent on the side of the jews, we wouldnt even notice the arabs

and it's becoming more and more clear, that we have OUR OWN PROBLEMS to worry about
 
Quote from nutmeg:

It is merely a disguise Watson, just as th 911 conspiracy that was pre planned and organized within the Gov't. It's an inside job. Popular mechanic of techanical analyis soon will have an issue of out explaining the reason the 4 towers of bsc leh fre fnm fell, with undisputed proof it was paper airplanes.

another terrorist hit helps the republicans.

funny how the threat levels all rise going into elections where republicans are expected to lose

Sheer stupidity for anyone to suggest that these transactions are not traceable to the exact originating accounts.

Laugh.
 
Conspiracy theorizing of this sort is getting ridiculous. What foreign entity stands a chance at forcing Wall Street to its knees if Wall Street was in sound and healthy condition? The assets of AIG alone for example are larger than the GDP of medium sized countries. The source of the financial weakness is clear and obvious to everyone: the mortgage mess. If there is anyone to blame it is the ones who got drunk on the asset bubble.

How many here were sympathetic to the Asian economies that were being raided by the likes of Quantum and Tiger triggering the Asian Crisis in 1997 and the intervention undertaken by the financial authorities over there? Regulation and intervention have their place. Capitalism is not perfect and can lead to excesses. Sorry to pop your bubble. Welcome to the real world everyone else has been living in.
 
i have to say... when the US inflicts pain on the rest of the world, its sound capitalism... the other way around, its terrorism... go figure...
 
Capablanca,

you need to understand systems thinking.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systems_thinking


When conspiracy theories occur - it IS because perceptions are that something is WRONG. Now, there is no way of proving any DIRECT link between a current system and the INTENT or strategy before it. There is systems philosophy where you can look at the origins and evolution of systems. But the systems theory and systems science - are all about DESCRIBING CURRENT SITUATION ... and it is NEUTRAL to the ORIGINS of the system.

So - therefore - conspiracy theories are a REACTION to perceived systemic BIAS.

and so on....

You need to understand the interdisciplinarity of what IS systems science...


I can't believe people don't GET what I am talking about... really. IT IS ABOUT SYSTEM INTEGRITY AND SUSTAINABILITY.
