Artificial Market Suppression

A new sheriff has taken dominion over the U.S. Stock Market, these individuals are faster, smarter, and more market savvy than most seasoned veterans of Wall Street could ever dream of being. They are known within this select community as ATQS or Algorithmic Trading Quant. Most were hired by the financial services industry between 2004-2007 fresh out of MIT. They were asked to design everything from mortgage mechanisms to ultra low latency packages used for speedy trades within the market, the bottom line is they have immobilized markets world wide with there high frequency trading ability's. Crushing markets by shorting everything with a pulse, and treating those with a long trading mindset as just collateral damage. A comfortable range between 9500-10,500 on the dow seems to be the target zone for massive trading exchanges. Only regulation can reestablish the wealth generating machine of the U.S. Stock Market now.
