Quote of the Day

"The problem with violent moves is that they break things. Things like allocation models. Risk profiles. Margin requirements. And so on...And when things break in the market, the mechanics take over, often forcing individuals, funds, or institutions to do something they don’t want to do – sell indiscriminately – which further exasperates already extreme moves."
