Imagine that; a government rule that . . . worked. Well, that is one for the books. I guess I can no longer argue that all government regulation in the marketplace is a bad place. Darn. :-) Your fan (in spite of having my bubble burst), Bob Neal, according to your post, it sounds like the regulation enacted by the federal government in the early 30′s was actually a good thing.

I agree. The thing that makes me scratch me head is this. While the folks arguing NOT to reinstate say this, when you review the chart, it looks like the volatility did spike as soon as the rule was lifted. No arguing that. This is absolutely true. I agree.

Put options and inverse ETF's in particular. Additionally, odd lots were not subject to the uptick rule. I wasn't aware of that until recently. Nevertheless, the uptick rule was established for good reason, and should be brought back (IMO).
