occupy too big to fail!

i think the movement has reached a ceratain tipping point.

the movement has been covered on cnbc, the market/business channel.

yes, that's right, the channel that features rick santelli, who is credited with starting the tea party movement with an anti-bailout rant (what communications or money exchanges he's had with the koch brothers remaings a matter for conjecture).


cnbc is hardly foxnews, of course, but cnbc normally sticks pretty closely to things that actually have some specific market relevance. they report unemployment statistics, for instance, but only because it says something about corporate expenses and therefore corporate profits and therefore the prices of stocks and bonds. no hint of the human suffering involved.

as of yet it's not clear that anything about the occupy movement lends itself to any particular trading strategy. at least, i haven't heard cnbc make any such suggestions.

yet they're still covering the story.


i think this thing has spread like wildfire and has gotten big enough that it has to have some impact.

'bout time, too!
