The decline is 909.3 points. a 2/3rds retracement is 600.14 points. With the low at 666.69 you should be at 1266.93. How do you explain this?

And note for the numerically illiterate, many of whom have on-air jobs on financial shows, that a 58% drop followed by a 67% gain doesn’t get you back to even.

What about this bubble Ben? What bubble?

Have any idea of how this one is being created? Nope.

Could there be a correlation between it and your printing press, balance sheet and/or ZIRP? Nope.
