A number of bears have pointed to the supposed thin nature of the rally in justifying their skepticism. That is, the rally has been led by a relatively small number of stocks as opposed to broad participation.

One thing is clear: These aren’t your daddy’s markets anymore.

Two big reasons:

1.       Such “”markets”” are easily manipulated by central banks and other state actors by virtue of their automated responses to liquidity injections.
2.       These manipulations will work until they don’t.  When they fail, they may fail spectacularly

Obvious Price Manipulations

My conclusion is that the HFT computer algos are in complete control of the ""market" action, and play with and off of each other to create massive sudden price movements that have nothing to do with anything except book order saturation.  Case in point:

Today's recent example comes to us courtesy of the WTIC oil market on the NYMEX:  


So...8 thousand contracts in 3 seconds. Staggering.

Understanding Volume vs. Liquidity

What we’re really describing here is a sudden spike in volume that basically destroys the current market book of orders. 

What that means is this. Imagine that you are selling eggs at the farmers market along with nine other vendors. The price you can sell your eggs for is set in accordance with the other prices around you.  Yours are organic, but small. The vendor next to you has large eggs that are conventional, but larger. Let’s say that the range of selling prices is from $4/doz to $5.50 per dozen.  This is the market structure for eggs at our farmers market. 

All of a sudden, a giant semi-truck backs up. It's filled with eggs matching every description of those being sold at our small little market.  What do you think happens to egg prices over that one-minute window?  That’s right, the price gets completely crushed. In other words, the “”market”” for eggs got ruined, right there and in an instant.  You and the other 9 original egg merchants got thoroughly hosed.  

The volume of eggs on offer shot up massively all of a sudden, but once all 500 potential egg buyers had been satisfied, the number of buyers dropped away rapidly.   Liquidity dried up.

This shows how it’s possible to have a market with tons of volume, but no liquidity.  There are lots and lots of eggs for sale, but no buyers.  All volume, no liquidity. 

Note the first event which was a sudden loss of liquidity, seen at the yellow arrow:



At the same time that the liquidity dried up, you can see volume ticked up pretty strongly and this caused prices to rise.  For whatever reason, in HFT land the rules seem to be:

  • High Volume + High Liquidity = small price movements
  • High Volume + Low Liquidity = big price movements
  • High Volume + HFT only Liquidity = flash crash
The point here is this: The computer bots now are the market.

When we think of wealth today, we often think of the massive personal fortunes of business magnates like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, or Warren Buffett. However, it is only since the Industrial Revolution that measuring wealth by one’s bank account has been a norm for the world’s richest.
