1. A big spike at the close. It could have gone either way.
I'm glad it went up.

10. How much is it down from this date last year? You may be surprised by the answer.
The daily moves are less important then those over extended periods.

If anything, a smart investor is trying to decide what the DOW will be this time NEXT YEAR, or the one after, not tomorrow.

12. I'm only concerned about where the Dow/S&P 500/MSCI are going to be
20 years from today.

5. Oh no!!!!
As a student of history, I fear this is yet another sign that we are approaching a depression!

7. Hope it continues the recovery the rest of the week. Once the market realizes
that the teapublicans and their hand puppets (read that as the ratings industry) mean snot, a lot of bargain buying will kick in.

8. Good
Glad to see this, I think yesterday's sell off was a little bit of an over reaction.

14. Way too jumpy. It was up, it was down, up, down and up again.
It's risky right now. Only invest what you can afford to lose until it stabilizes.

15. The vultures like to buy on the dips
Either that or the PPT decided to make their move.
