KOSPI (S.Korea) down more than 4%. Remember they banned short-selling last week smile

When you ban short-selling on particular stocks, the other stocks in that exchange always take the banned selling blow. It's a useless plunge protection strategy & creates a short-sellers heaven since it is an admission by the market reg that they are not in control. Suspending the market (circuit breaker) or platform failures are better cool off ways. Korea should put up a suicide alert as the weeks of stock plunge has wiped a lot of wons in the financial firms esp brokerage & hedge funds...

Will their retrenching of 10k plus employees shield this stock from further collapse?

When the DAX falls by 5.8% then you know the global economy is in real shit coz they are one of the economies driven by the manufacturing sector.

Yap, saw it live while trading yesterday and I commented the same on the forex thread. These are indeed interesting times...


Meanwhile US session opens and HP falls off the cliff from where it left yesterday. Down 22% in 30 minutes - suspended i.e. circuit breakers triggered... A boom out gap down selloff.

Makes little sense to me where there are cash rich companies with a much higher dividend yield,this risk aversion is being taken too far.

Btw.. I find all the U.S data out so far to be grossly misleading accounts for any decisions about the future to be made. Why? Austerity measures a.k.a spending cuts were approved in August...the feed through is coming and the domino all through to Asia (Exports mainly) will surely get me my !! 60 dollar crude !!

$60 per barrel of Brent crude oil is welcome news anytime!
@cnn, these chaps should jus come to SSA and invest in our virgin infrastructure. Atleast they will get more than the 2% yields they are rushing for in bonds!How sad and myopic for these guys!Laughing out loudly

Now Dow looks to end one of its most volatile weeks above 11,000 points, if the figures showing in its first one & a half hours of trading are anything to go buy!

It's truly been "a bridge over troubled waters" kind of week globally!

Nop. The issue is the CDS portfolio they hold in Europe & the huge mortgage fraud claims coming in. They're trying to fire sell some of their global assets to shore up liquidity. A deer caught in headlamps moment...

Some stats here...

On Dec 31st 2009, S&P500 closed @1115. Yesterday it closed @1117. Not only have US markets erased 2011 gains, but now look poised to erase 2010 gains as well.

Update - more stats...

Almost all the top global stock markets are exhiting the 'kiss of death' i.e. when the DMA50 crosses the DMA200 from above on the way down. It is usually a signal to a bear trend for months.

A cursory look at Europe funding lines points to a serious liquidity squeeze coming soon. May be as early as next week! For fed bank to open the $ swap lines to swiss central bank & the swiss refusing to state the reason, points to liquidity tension in euroland. If the ECB, BoE & SNB dont shore up the liquidity tanks this coming week, that tension will spillover in stocks & derivatives. 5 - 8% daily declines in euro markets will be very likely and financial stocks will bare the heaviest brunt...

Caution...
