Death comes to us all. Life's but a walking shadow | I've been waiting to hear what CME's explanation was but it is obvious an honest explanation probably won't be forthcoming. Did you notice how both corn & soybeans closed higher yesterday even with all the fuss. I'm just paranoid enough after all the news about the "high speed traders" to wonder whether this glitch had anything to do with somebody trying to (or did) game the system by trying to infiltrate the core system. That would be the next step, simply insert your system inside the CME and manipulate the trades from inside. You couldn't get faster than that. |
So, just to reiterate, the CME computer-trading system crashed yesterday
