It's all a rig

Message:

Markets are rigged, news is rigged, education is rigged... It's all a rig. It's all a fake.

Who do you believe?

  I think it was Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn who said to "trust your own crooked eye".  Or did he just quote an old Russian proverb?

Maybe that's the way to go. Who the *&$^^ knows?

Update:

The sentiment expressed above may as well render this recent post inoperative.  Cue up Rod Serling.  Who's Rod Serling?  Never mind.  Old timer stuff.

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... Like Rigged Markets (All Of Them!)

By Tyler Durden

While Grant Williams can't speak for anybody else, his nearly thirty years immersed in equity, bond, and commodity markets all around the world, have shown him enough to absolutely confirm in his own mind that the markets are rigged. Not just some of them. All of them. In different ways, to be sure, but they're all rigged. Not only are they rigged, but they are rigged in ways that beggar belief; and in many places they are rigged by the very people who ought to be responsible for stopping any rigging... Whether Bill O'Brien (or Bob Pisani) likes it or not, Michael Lewis was speaking the truth when he said the market was rigged. He was talking about US equity markets, but rigging goes much, much deeper.
