I believe today fully qualifies as an insane day on Wall St.

Incredible volatility and double the market data volumes, crapping systems out all over the place like dominos...NASDAQ itself fell behind...nuts.

PS. May the Lord smiteth the assholes who come up with the mandatory 30-day holding period on equities purchases for full time employees (even the public side). I could have made a ton of money in this insanity. (grinds his teeth)

I haven't. But VIP dipped to $17.80 after the open, and I wanted to buy it but too scared to hold for 30 days. I'd be up 25K by the close (and would sell it). But to keep for a month in this crazy market is too risky...
