> Figure 2 shows plots of overnight and intraday returns for twenty-one major stock market indices around the world. Turn the page and compare Figure 1 with Figure 2. See if you can tell a difference.
These images... do not render well on my machine, to put it lightly. So they look remarkably similar to me. Perhaps the author could spell out what this difference is? There is eventually mention of "striking similarity in the overnight and in- traday return patterns in the indices around the globe," but I don't think I'm ready to conclude that strong correlation of phenomena across markets in a global economy must be caused by a collection of manipulators acting on all of those markets.
I'm curious to see what others have to say, since I lack the hardware and background to properly read this document.
