  I actually think I ll play more roulette money on this one.I think this is a huge anomaly in pricing worth of speculating on. Looks like hedge funds etc. were selling at any price to get out...

  I saw a video (that I cannot verify the information in) stating XIV still intact.  The sells after hours were force margin liquidations.

  mike tranz, i think that is a song but it definitely applies here.  whats happening now is overseas markets are reacting to our market.  XIV most likely opens in single digits....?  maybe??
