Steven Colbert's Take on High Frequency Trading

Stephen Colbert interviewed Christopher Steiner, author of "Automate This: How Algorithms Came To Rule Our World".

As you'd expect in a Colbert segment, there is lot's of 'truthiness' mixed in with the humor.

For example:

 

Some say all this computer trading is dangerous, but I say it's actually safer.

To hear the worst that could happen, watch this video.
