Just a thought, since Trump has taken credit for what he believes is a robust economy, constantly bringing up how great the stock market is doing, isn't he enticing the opposition to crash the market before mid-terms?....As I said, just a thought.

Crash world markets - intentionally?

How would you go about doing that?

Suppose for the sake of argument you had the ability to form a secret cadre made up of investment bankers, hedge fund managers, heads of state, multi-billionaires, etc. And you got everybody to agree to be on the same page.

From there, wouldn't you wait for a news event - at which point everybody sells?

Is it possible that's what happened right after the Brexit vote?

Or right after the US election in 2016?

There is one gotcha with that.

If the market moves the other way:

Wouldn't an orchestrated sell off turn out to be kind of expensive?

You see TLRY today. Up 70 points since my post last night . Given I almost NEVER tout anything here, thats pretty good.



Thing is giving SFOR a run for its money.




LOL



This is murdering short sellers everywhere.



Some may even have to take up pot smoking, which will make the stock go even higher

I wasn't actually asking.



Some say it means the stock is doomed as all the smart money is short .


What it means for sure is, shorts are paying for the priv of getting reamed.
