The DOW opens (-1.21%).

Another dropped opening.

1. It's just because it hasn't got stimulated yet. n/t

[kenfrequed]

2. This is inevitable.

The "Stimulus package" will not work.

A failure to pass it will cause a slight down-bump.

Passing it will cause a slight uptick but after the temporary crack-high of consumer spending (maybe more like a cigarette) the market will continue to fall again.

[whistle]

3. It has been a bumpy morning so far

4. I wonder how far the markets will go down...

All the profits from last have been shot.

If we could be back to having horrible financial news reported every couple of weeks or so instead of every couple of days, we may be nearing the bottom.

5. And now positive for the day by about 20 points. n/t

6. S & P 1400-1430 range, I'm selling like there's no tomorrow

assuming, of course, that it ever gets there. follow that statement at your own risk, it is not investment advice

[tekisui]

7. Won't stay there long, eh?

[onbudsman]

8. boatload of technical resistence in that range

on monthly charts, weekly charts, daily charts, trend lines, previous swing lows, .61 fibonacci retracement of previous decline

of course, the market can and will do just about anything, at any time - there are no rules

but there are, tendencies

again, this is an opinion, not advice
