ECONOPHYSICS, AND THE PROMIS OF RIOT

Mr. P.T. brought this to my attention, and I have to comment on it. And this "having to comment" is both an interior compulsion, and a kind of moral imperative, all at once. But first, a little background. In my book Babylon's Banksters I talked about the emergence, in the late 1970s and early 1980s, of a new discipline, "econophysics," as physicists trained in quantum mechanics brought their statistical modeling methods of the interactions of multitude of particles of all sizes shapes and colors to the world of economics and finance, and thus created a new discipline.

Yesterday I talked about high frequency trading, or algorithmic trading, or what I prefer to call "robotrading" for reasons that will, I hope, become clear in this little blog. And I ended on a note yesterday that indicated that there was a possibly darker, murkier side to the phenomenon, one that invited discussion and speculation. Well, yesterday was the discussion, and today is the speculation. The phenomenon of high frequency algorithmic trading immediately opens up potentialities for cyber-warfare, sophisticated computer programs deliberately designed to play havoc with a commodities … [Read more...]

UPDATE: AURORA SHOOTING, BANKSTERS, AND SPECULATIONS

As I mentioned yesterday in my News and Views from the Nefarium, July 26, 2012, the unraveling of the "official line" of what happened during the Batman Movie Theater Murders is happening almost as soon as the cloth is woven. The bizarre anomalies surrounding James Holmes, the alleged perpetrator, only grow, and we all know, by now, what at least a few of them are. But now there's this rather stunning revelation: KingCast and Mortgage Movies remain pensive as James Holmes' father, Robert Holmes, is set to provide crippling info. on Libor & other banking scandals. If true, then there … [Read more...]
