saw toothed stock market

The fluctuation of the NSE Nifty today reminded me of saw toothed waveforms which I would look to clip in my electrical engineering days at surathkal. IMO This volatility is a result of uncertain policy measures as US is changing course seeing China's fiscal stimulus move. Today in the hindu columnist patnaik essentially advocated fiscal stimulus versus just doing increasing the M3 money supply. Will the long term cash flows of cashcow companies get effected unless of course the cashcow is not the sacred cow we thought but just a ponzi scheme of routing money from financial services into aircraft turbine and power generation biz? Making the customer leveraged by having a financial arm might be a good idea in good times, but in bad times it can make you sink faster.
