Can’t believe how relaxed the US and EU governments are to this?

China’s “Black Monday” has spread stock market fears worldwide, but it doesn’t want its citizens knowing the full implications:

How come western markets have not really reacted to this?

Fed is out of ammo with 0 rates. Unless they go apeshit with negative interest rates. See ?war-on-cash

The US playing games?

Another big fall today! This is going to only get worse if the Chinese start to pill back money from the US to cover their home positions.

All gone quiet which is rather worrying.

Seems to have gone all quiet ? My concern is US interest rate rises on the property sector and especially commercial property holdings that are being hit by on-line retailing. That to me is the next sub-prime.

Their gold stocks are seemingly no where were what they should be. Is this one gigantic stack of cards about to fall over?

Why would anyone buy shares in China when the Government so clearly manages the market?

Read a piece in the NYT today and this is pretty scary, considering the complete lack of clarity as to what is really happening.

Ex b/f was a trader and they are all crazy. The markets need far more regulation world wide .

Flash trading in a market like this is pure slaughter for the chinese people holding shares. I just hope the ability for contagion is low and their is mad exit.

We can’t take another global collapse. So the Fed better have prepared.

Thoughts on this one? What were the causes? How might this impact the U.S., if at all?
