How does buying an index composite, or a derivate of the index, affect the individual stocks of the company that make up the index? I thought it was the other way around.
Buy certain Indexes and Baskets, that goes towards companies within them, then HFT front run, adding " illusion " of gains, as long as their is someone giving money away, HFT do their thing... When they stop, you suddenly see crazy reversals that make no sense cause artificial pumping only works on a one way street... The Fed is prisoner to it's own game, biggest money maker on Wall St is front running the PPT https://nypost.com/2018/02/05/dc-plunge-team-may-have-halted-unprecedented-dow-jones-spiral/ I benefited greatly from it, but I think I might of fucked up trying to short before a recession... Only a china credit crisis will bring it down, any other sell-off is met by dozens of billions daily in Fed money, HFT reverse everything. In bull markets when everyone is buying it's cool, in bear markets they are watching 24/7 ready... They create Trillions for free
The Central Bank Incentive Program at the CME has been available for several years. This is not a recent discovery. Additionally, there are International Incentive Programs at the CME, available to emerging market banks, and fund managers within specific counties. A quick google search reveals at least one fee schedule from past years which includes CBIP and IIP member fees.

A chance to buy futures down just a little now to sell back at the open. The markers will be made to have a positive week
You and the author are totally clueless. Author told investors to refuse to invest in US markets in 2014.
Companies are making huge purchases on their own stock using proceeds from record profits and, yes, that does move indexes. Not sure why you are perpetually confused about this. Also, when large inflows into mutual funds and etfs choose equity those purchases have to be bought. Discretionary fund managers do time those purchases, and intraday dips especially on the open are such opportunities. Your whole shtick is ignorant and ridiculous. It's embarrassing seeing these theories on a trading site.
If central banks are wanting to just print money to push up stocks why would you want to fight that? more reason to invest.
Happy market open! Slight dip and now the rally as Asia opens, potentially make new record highs this week!
And Trump delays tariffs to get this rally going! Amazing! Have to admit it's amazing how perfectly they can time to get us moving. Buy the dips!
