    At the bottom of the markets in 2008 and 2009 area, when we made the V bottom. A new buyer with 600 billion came in. Only no one knew who it was. Only Explanation is it was the government via the Fed or Treasury. I have heard many people talk that when that much cash comes in you usually know who it is. The government has been manipulating the markets for a while now.
