Reality imitates fiction? Yesterday's action might turn out to be chillingly close to the scenario portrayed in my novel, TAKEDOWN.
A post from KYLOBBIST at Investor Village:
"All the afternoon, everyone was having hard time following the party line on the NYSE breakdown. CNBC was reporting that NYSE did a software update, which caused the glitch.
 
I find it unlikely the NYSE, with top of the line IT folks, would schedule a software upgrade for the middle of the trading day. 
 
So conversation turned to the Norse Attack Map. It tracks cyber assaults from other countries. This shows a coordinated attack to a data center in St. Louis owned by the NYSE.
 
Anyhoo, theorists claiming US officials and NYSE officials did not want to admit this on a day like today with the markets already tanking hard, and admit the attack was from China.  I love the intrigue of it all." 
 
FWIW you can see it here.
