"All I have is a voice
To undo the folded lie,
The romantic lie in the brain
Of the sensual man-in-the-street
And the lie of Authority
Whose buildings grope the sky:
There is no such thing as the State
And no one exists alone;
Hunger allows no choice
To the citizen or the police;
We must love one another or die."
W. H. Auden, September 1, 1939
So where was the risk perception today?
The Dollar moved lower.
Gold and silver moved lower.
The miners were smacked much harder.
VIX moved higher.
Stocks in general were weak, except for the tech bubble and story stocks.
Must be a quadruple witch option expiration ahead of a major holiday-shortened week.
Ho ho, ho.
The northeast and Middle Atlantic are expecting a major nor'easter this week, carrying a potentially very heavy snowfall with it.
Have a pleasant evening.
