All I can see is something about instability in China. Can someone break down what is going on?

As I understand, it's been kinda shaky for a while because China's economy started slowing and then the Chinese devalued the Yuan, and things went into free fall. I've read many noted economists and money managers say it's pretty much a market correction because it's been over-valued for a while. Don't panic. Sit tight. This too shall pass.

The China thing is just a cover for the real story. Aliens. The truth is out there.

I think it's God punishing the Asians for coming up with squat toilets.

I've heard that too. But I value my toilet time, for you see my bathroom is a place of learning and contemplation as well as a place to have a wee.

Same here. I think whoever performed the so-called study forget to acknowledge the greatness of toilet-thought.
Hell, The Thinker Statue is even a testament to the power of toilet-thought.

No one knows for sure what's going on, but the down volume and volatility are definitely not just normal market action by any means.

It will be a major correction and we haven't seen the end of it by a long shot. I foresee a recession soon and maybe a major depression. No one knows when but its coming. There is too much financial instability, not just china, not just Greece, not just Europe but the whole damn world.
USA is $18T in debt, no way to pay it back. I laugh when I hear the fed is going to raise interest rates, they will not do it. The majority of countries are on thin ice and global warming is hitting home. Soon as the sheep panic it will be over. All the talking heads are saying stay the course, nothing will happen, it will go back up. Maybe but its not done going down. Wait until everyone panics, people start thinking everything will go to zero then buy. But not now, now is the time to sell. People will wish they had listened to me later on.

From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.” (attributed to Alexis de Tocqueville political philosopher Circa 1835) Trade list http://www.shroomery.org/forums/showflat.php/Number/18047755

It's basically impossible to invest in this type of environment, so much depends on the actions of central banks, at the end of the day it's completely speculative.
