    Stock Market Flash Crash, May, 2010

    Fascinating S&P pit trader audio of the May, 2010 flash crash. Could it happen again?

    That is nothing but a panic.... Falling knife, that no one wants to attempt to catch, it lands and everyone wants to pick it up.

    The audio reminds me of a reverse auction. And like any auction, it creates a sense of panic and urgency....

    Sounds and looks and creates an over-reaction.

    But wtf do I know.... if the bubbles are bursting....!

      We are long overdue for a stock market crash. I remember every 7 or 8 years there would be Black Friday. Ides of March, etc. Usually March and September but I don't remember a May crash, but there's always a first time, I guess.
