HSI down another 1000 points; does anyone care?

You gotta love those Asian indices. Volatility is incredible.

 

Its actually only china.

Elsewhere the markets are more orderly.

 

Daytraders don't really know (or care) if it is down 1000 pts from previous close.
As long as the short is down from entry, everything looks rosy.

A whopping 2.75%?

I'll get excited when the index drops 10-15% in one session along with the Shanghai and see the Dow futures plummet 5%.

The real freefall won't start until after Beijing Olympics next summer right?

 

3% moves are normal for HSI

 

Nope

 

No one cares. Market almost green today.

 

It happens to any speculate markets. It so happens China markets get the most attention now.

 

I'm starting to care
