Anonymous Coward User ID: 13137091 Germany 07/27/2012 08:19 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Remember the May 6 / 2010 FLASH CRASH in the markets? Well that was also Gordon Gekko's birthday in movie Wall Street. Coincidence? You decide! I just happened to be watching Wall Street (occasional Friday afternoon ritual I have). I just noticed the scene in the movie where Bud Fox is alerted via his computer that it's Gordon Gekko's birthday. And on the computer screen it reads: Gekko's birthday May 6, the computer playing happy birthday tune. I thought; that date is familiar.... 2010 Flash Crash The May 6, 2010 Flash Crash[1] also known as The Crash of 2:45, the 2010 Flash Crash or just simply, the Flash Crash, was a United States stock market crash on Thursday May 6, 2010 in which the Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged about 1000 points—or about nine percent—only to recover those losses within minutes. It was the second largest point swing, 1,010.14 points,[2] and the biggest one-day point decline, 998.5 points, on an intraday basis in Dow Jones Industrial Average history [ link to en.wikipedia.org] ............... We know the insider illuminati like fuckin with our heads... Coincidence?, you decide..... I can't find the wall street clip on YouTube, but it's in the movie, not far from the beginning |

Ok, I found this so far from the 4th paragraph down.. "...Gekko grew up on Long Island and went to City College of New York. His birthday is May 6, though his year of birth is unknown. ..." [ link to en.wikipedia.org] |
