So what is the geustimate for today - down 2%, unchanged or minor recovery? Can't make up my mind but think we will end down like the rest of the world!

MY rusty and cloudy crystal is saying edging to a no close day, more wekness but should hold at 23800 to 24000, but like I said this weird cloudy mist inside is not good to see through... I am mostly cash on the side for the moment ;-)

saash. not sure.. we are holding and so that says yes..gap close, but there is a lack of pannic on this forum, usually a good indicator to me that the gap will close..(high emotions)//experience says yes.. but with such a key tA reason to sell any stength might be seen as an opp by bulls to bail...I expect an attempt to close but would guess it will fail

I sold all my winning Commodities except MVL today. Banking profit or panic? We'll let my psychologist decide...

When the Dow was 9500 back in 04'05'... Buffett said that nobody should buy. He was right...but missed his estimate by 3-4 years!!

I wonder if a 50% retracement is pushing it a bit.

The US futures still shows a little potential for it.
