 User ID: 1469644 United States10/26/2011 09:40 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | 12.03pm Still waiting for ASX to give an indication of trading will come back online. It couldn't come at a worse time for the ASX because the markets looked like it was going to be a good day. Quoting: Possum The markets will have to open at some point today because it is options expiry day. Read more: [link to www.news.com.au] That's exactly the reason why it doesn't have to open. Massive calls and puts expire un-exercized. Banks don't experience massive uncovered losses. Only investors get to smoke pole. Too bad, so sad. Thanks for giving that bit of news about options expiring today, what are the odds. Hell was coming and they decided to shut it down, the question is if it will start back up anytime There trading day Thursday. If they do the market in Australia will go super red real quick, if they don't they will wonder what problem caused the countries stock market to shutdown. On a day of Options. [link to www.s8int.com] “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.” Quote from Joseph Goebbels Hitlers propaganda man. |

Chi-X Australia is set to launch on October 31 in competition with ASX. It announced on Tuesday that it would launch an aggressive pricing strategy aimed at undercutting the Australian Stock Exchange and likely to attract high-frequency trading firms. One trader has (jokingly) suggested a Chi-X insider has pulled the plug on ASX. [link to www.news.com.au] |
