Before It’s News – by Live Free or Die
An ‘options trader’ has made a 11.25 million dollar ‘bet’ that something VERY BAD will happen within the next 60 days. What does this person know that we don’t? According to this story from Business Insider, WE ALL need to be VERY ALERT over the next two months.
Stocks have been rallying relentlessly to post-crisis highs.
Meanwhile, the volatility index (aka the VIX, aka the “fear index”) is near historic lows.
But according to UBS’s Art Cashin, some options trader has made an enormous $11.25 million bet that the VIX will explode higher very soon.
And a rally in the VIX is usually accompanied by a drop in the stock markets.
He then goes on to list some of the scheduled events and deadlines visible over the next 60 days (mostly in Washington). When you add in the broad variety of geo-political possibilities, it’s a decent reason to stay extra alert.
Hopefully, this person is wrong.

For anyone who thinks this is ‘hogwash’, remember what happened prior to the MOSSAD led FALSE FLAG attacks upon America on 9/11. Are THEY setting us up for another fall? What do THEY have in store for us this time? Hey FBI, DHS, DOJ, CIA: HOPE YOU’RE WATCHING this unfolding and are going after the bad guys rather than participating in this evil, again!
An options trader, a.k.a. a mass swindler, is making desperate bets, this is not news.
What happens after 60 days? Ever heard of ‘double-or-quits’? They will just keep doing this because 11.25 million is simply small change to an options trader.
This is probably a little post-lunchtime punt taken with someone else’s money knowing full well that the Government will eventually offload any loses made to the tax payer. It’s a win-win for them and a lose-lose for everyone else.
I read a long time ago by people who claim to have inside information, that as soon as the market hits 15,000 those that control it, will pull out and then let it crash.
I read that one too. I think it was the old preacher guy from Alaska who (correctly) predicted $140 oil. But I’ve worked for companies like The Carlyle Group who insider trade Millions every day through their connected members (Blair, Major, Kissinger, Cheney, etc.) It’s unlikely they’d bother with such a one-off set up. They make more money each week than they can begin to deal with. I was shown a $40Million profit trade once by their trader made in 3 days. Pure inside info. A safe bet.
maybe it’s the solomon islands.
look here:

i’v been watching this for days,
those islands have been shaking 4.5-6 non-stop for over 48hours now – that’s not normal!!!
something big is happening with the plates.
it fit’s in with an 8year old prediction – here is a taste:
(1) a tipping Indo-Australia Plate with (2) Indonesia sinking,
(3) a folding Pacific allowing (4) S America to roll,
(5) a tearing of the south Atlantic Rift allowing (6) Africa to roll and (7) the floor of the Mediterranean to drop,
(8) great quakes in Japan followed by (9) the New Madrid adjustment,
(10) which is followed almost instantly by the tearing of the north Atlantic Rift with consequent European tsunami.

we better hope it;s wrong – or the trader wont be around to cash-in or the market wont be around to pay!
Im not worried if anyone is WRONG, I am worried if someone is right. You dont have to ACT on something or play the fool, but keep it in the back of your mind and after 60 days who cares.
Its like saying those who live on the east coast should have some sort of plan for a tsunami after what happened in Japan. The chances are unlikely but having a plan just in case is always wise.
As the saying goes, hope for the best PLAN for the worst, it doesnt say ACT on the worst.
