i think dr. lang was talking about in the that context, sandie was too, and kind of interesting that of all the things dodd-frank did it created a financial stability oversight council to find and address pending systemic risks and here's one we're having a conference about and talking about, it's been written about for years and not real obvious action being taken then, yes, i guess they're busy designating insurance companies so i think that we should expect and demand more out of any council given the types of power that fsoc has been given on this issue. and we haven't seen it. they have, of course access to the ofr a supposedly independent group with some really smart spokes who are supposed to do this kind of research. they can research these issues, they can get the data, larry can help them if they need it and they can report to fsoc and it would be nice to know more of that is going on. maybe it is. i'm famously not a member and every now and again i read in the journal what happens, or bloom

dr. philipp lang conformis ceo who rang the opening bell today. welcome to "mad money." >> thank you, jim. >> i have to tell you, with the flood of ipos this one has the most to offer in many ways because you save the system money and make the patient healthier. >> yes we do. so there are significant been fits not only to hospitals, but also to patients. example on the hospital side there is a reduction at length of stay. patients recover generally faster. we see less transfusion rates. >> one of the things that struck me sometimes you see technology you see disruption technology. why are we using one-size-fits all. why haven't we been able to develop something that conforms to ourselves? >> technology didn't exist. it's a propriety software, 3-d printing. yes, why would you not want to have the same knee replacement? if you go to an off-the-shelf implant, they are perfectly symmetrical. they have the same width on the inside and outside of the knee. many have straight edges. you can put this down on the table. >> no knee is straight. >> no knee i

i think dr. lang was talking about it in that context. sandy was, too. and kind of interesting that of all the things dodd frank did, it created a financial stability oversight council to find and address pending systemic risks and here is one we're having a big conference about and talking about and it's been written about for years and not real obvious action being taken. i guess they're busy designating insurance companies. so i think we should expect and demand more out of any council given the type of power that fsoc has been given to this issue. they have, of course access to the ofr, you know, a supposedly independent group with some really smart folks who are supposed to do this kind of research. they can research these issues and get the data. larry can help them if they need it and they can report up to fsoc and it would be nice to know more of that is going on. maybe it is. i'm famously not a member and every now and again i read in the journal what happens. or bloomberg or whatever. so i just think not enough is happening on these issues, the

so again, much like dr. lang has said, as we discuss liquidity, i think it's very important to define what we mean. and having traded fixed income products myself and as former treasurer of jpmorgan, trade when i want to and the size i want to and with reasonably predictable pricing. it is under that definition that i think we can agree that general market liquidity has in fact been declining and we have hit some air pockets as market depth has been tested. as already noted the 2013 taper tantrum, the treasury flash rally on october 15th and the recent euro tantrum. all of this has been during relatively benign times. and in the most liquid markets in the world, which is what gives us pause. these are the last places that you would expect the level of pricing volatility or for example a six sigma move on treasury pricing we saw on october 15th. markets have not yet been tested under more severe circumstances. and therefore it's important for us to contemplate because we don't know whether liquidity or the depth o
