What happens on September 17th?

[funkfool]

I guess we will see if he is right...


Glenn Beck warned that the economy and Wall Street was going to come under attack by radicals on September 17th.
Video (http://www.glennbeck.com/2011/09/14/what-happens-on-september-17th/)
What are they planning? Glenn explained and showed some of the warning signs. For example, when Glenn was down by Wall Street the other day he saw more security than he had ever seen – concrete blocks, bike racks, bomb sniffing dogs, and police. What do they know on Wall Street that isn’t being addressed in the media? Watch the clip above to get the answers...

The market isn't open on Saturday, but I can tell you the 16th is one of the quarterly Quadruple witching day.


The four things the “quadruple” refers to are the expiration of contracts for stock index futures, stock index options, stock options, and single stock futures. All four types of financial agreement expire on the same day, the third Fridays of March, June, September and December.
Without going into too much detail about each of these complex stock agreements, they are all based on the idea of a futures contract (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/futures+contract?__utma=1.1517410293.1316044120.13 16044120.1316044120.1&__utmb=1.1.10.1316044120&__utmc=1&__utmx=-&__utmz=1.1316044120.1.1.utmcsr=google%7Cutmccn=%28 organic%29%7Cutmcmd=organic%7Cutmctr=quad%20witchi ng%20dates%202011&__utmv=-&__utmk=180493095). A buyer agrees to purchase (or has the option to) a certain amount of stock at a set price on a certain date in the future. Quadruple witching day is that date.

I was curious about this too since the Market is closed on Saturdays.

Is Glenn Beck just a conspiracy theorist now? I never watched him before...so I don't know.

And of course I don't want to be that person that says "It can't happen." I believe we should be prepared for all kinds of things like attacks and collapse...but I don't think I could put a date on it.

On Saturday September 17, around 1,000 people converged in the financial district in New York City to stage a nationwide "Day of Rage" or rather "Occupy Wall Street" demonstration to protest capitalism and the influence of money on US politics.

Thanks for posting that link. I had not heard yet how the hippies and Marxist did on their outing to Wall Street.

Not too concerned with what happens on September 17, 2011, however, September 17, 1862, is the single bloodiest day in US history. I pray no day in the future ever surpasses the death toll.

Someone at one of my jobs keeps talking about some comet, or second sun crashing into the Earth.

While I wouldn't protest capitalism, I can certainly agree with removing the money from politics.

Just a bunch of commies, pseudo-anarchists, anti-capitalists and useful idiots...in other words a bunch of liberals.

It's sad when you throw a revolution and no one comes. [ROFL1]

Yup, maybe people are starting to see thru the marxist dribble. :)

"What happens on September 17th?"

Apparently, not a whole hell of a lot...

When you're selfish and stupid you think this:

"From each according to his ability, to each according to his need".

Note the utter lack of personal responsibility in that statement.
