Video: A Nightmare On Wall Street -- May 10, 2010
- "Apparently last Thursday at 2:40 PM Wall Street got fat fingered."
- "Course when it happens really fast like that it probably feels more like two fat fingers in the DOW and then one in the NASDAQ. I guess that's why it's such a shocker to the economy."
- "The Dow plunging 700 points is blamed on a perfect storm that, for some reason, takes place every two weeks."

Funny clip from earlier this Summer, in case you missed it the first time around.

But I'm afraid some people aren't laughing.
Think about it. A substantial number of people panicked at the bottom after the 700 point drop, sold everything and went home. Twenty minutes later they turned on their TV's and saw an instant recovery of 700 points with their own massive losses written in stone.
Why aren't we hearing from any of them?
Who in America or anywhere else, with any common sense left at all, would invest serious money in the stock market?
Twenty minutes? It was more like a perfect earthquake than a perfect storm.
At least storms come with warnings, perfect or not. Earthquakes don't.
Clearly, Wall Street is sitting on a massive, active earthquake fault.
WND has further confirmed that the Social Security number in question links to Obama in the online records maintained by the Selective Service System. Inserting the Social Security number, his birth date and his last name produces a valid Selective Service number.
To verify the number was issued by the Social Security Administration for applicants in Connecticut, Daniels used a Social Security number verification database. She found that the numbers immediately before and immediately after Obama's were issued to Connecticut applicants between the years 1977 and 1979.
"There is obviously a case of fraud going on here," Daniels maintained. "In 15 years of having a private investigator's license in Ohio, I've never seen the Social Security Administration make a mistake of issuing a Connecticut Social Security number to a person who lived in Hawaii. There is no family connection that would appear to explain the anomaly."

It's a good question...but i'm guessing the only people who panicked were traders...not investors...and traders tend to deal with their lumps quietly...
