There is some fucked up shit going on today. Does anyone else get a weird feeling that the shit is already hitting the fan and we don’t know it yet? Overnight the Chinese stock market crashes by 5% despite every effort of their communist government to stem the tide.
Then every United/Continental plane in the country was grounded because their computer system went down.
Then Zero Hedge went down for over an hour as they were overwhelmed with traffic. That means a Denial of Service Attack. I know all about those. The attack appears to be ongoing as their site continues to experience loading problems.
The Wall Street Journal website has also been down today.
And now the NYSE has been down for over an hour. Stocks in the United States cannot be traded. It’s funny how this only happens when the stock market is down by 200 points. How come the NYSE never breaks on big time up days? Never.
Did the powers that be “break” the stock market because it was about to plunge by 1,000 points? Are they purposely manipulating the systems to prevent an all out collapse? There is nothing underpinning this market. It is built on hot air and debt. The immense level of margin debt will create a waterfall collapse once certain stock levels are breached.
Is the country under some sort of cyber-attack? Are the Chinese and/or Russians taking advantage of the worldwide turmoil to create a chaotic financial collapse? Are hackers from Anonymous or some other group flexing their muscles?
All is not right. I have an eerie feeling that something bad is about to happen. But, I’ve been wrong before.
So resume your denial and delusion until further notice.
Time for a fitting tune.
