This is the type of cr*p that chief market economists are saying to scare everyone, "Today might be the day where everybody throws in the towel," said Peter Cardillo, chief market economist for Avalon Partners. "People are saying 'I've had it, I can't take it anymore, I'm selling everything.'" I say "Come to Pappa my cheap shares."

a retest of 17150 and a strong break up will really get us going. There will be no crash imo, evryone talking about it is bound to invoke a short covering rally of note, watch this space.

what do you mean "there will be no crash" i think we already had the crash, maybe a bit prolonged and not just all in 1/2 day/s, but this past while was quite a move?

We are in a crash. Its just one in slow motion. Think of the henchman that saw Austin Powers in a steamroller approaching from 100m away at a crawl and still got trampled.

Just remember it took two years or so for the market to find a bottom in 1929. By the way at what point will this be called a crash. I think 31000ish to 17000ish is a little beyond the scope of a correction and more in the realm of crash but I guess we also aren't in a recession either.

I was referring to today's US open, the futures market descent was halted at limit down. It suggested a real crash at the open, we didn't get it... 17150 break on the ALSI futures and this bear market rally on short covering will be in full swing!

my view is that the market has crashed, and if someone does believe that they have a problem, maybe the crash gets worse, but this drop since the high is a crash. lol. one should not call it a crash though, because when thinking of cars or aircraft, after a crash the thing is a write-off and doesnt ever drive or fly again. lol...

Remember hedge funds also covering and scrambling for cash. Either sideways or a rally, but Monday will tell. Something to keep in mind... 24, 28 and 29 Oct 1929 was only the start. It took until 1932 for the market to bottom with the DOW at 89% down...and most of the dropoff happened gradually after Oct 1929
