The whole point of the behind-the-scenes manipulation, in concert with the the most connected MMs, is to squeeze as much profit out of the larger, unconnected market as possible, without pushing so far as to bring about the destruction of the very system that affords the true insiders such spectacular returns. It is like a fixed poker game, where the cheater is very discreet in playing his secret advantage. Such things, history, life, all make much clearer sense when one accepts that governments, at least as how they have existed in human history, regardless of what forms they have been claimed to have been, do not act in the interest of a given nation or its wider populace, but rather that they do primarily to preserve and increase the power of the most well-connected among the rulers. The administration, Paulson, Bernanke, et al, are not failing to "save the economy" because they are incompetent. They are absolutely spectacular at dispatching their true intentions, which is to oversee the greatest transfer of wealthy upwards in the history of mankind. Similarly, the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan are not disasters because the ruler are incompetent; on the contrary, these incursions have been spectacularly lucrative for those profiting from them, who benefit most from the prolonging of the crises.

Hard to believe that we could go up that far; however, I am a seriously mentally warped on the downside. I can't even bring my self to long, ever. I just sit it out and wait for the short entry point. So, far that has worked but always looking to avoid getting short too early. Thank you.

Not sure how meaningful it is or how it compares to a normal day. This is cumulative with $573.32 UP and $851.84 DOWN for a net of $-278.52.
