"Never?" From your mouth to God's ear.

Just a reminder: http://www.nyse.com/press/circuit_breakers.html In the event of a 1350-POINT decline in the DJIA (10 percent): Before 2 p.m.1 - HOUR HALT 2-2:30 p.m.30 - MIN. HALT After 2:30 p.m. - NO HALT In the event of a 2700-POINT decline in the DJIA (20 percent)...

Absolutely 100% spot on. I was thinking of posting something similar but you stated it better before I did so. Bernanke's handling of his position has been horrifically bad. 30 years of carefully built and earned Fed credibility down the drain.

I wonder how the Arabs are liking their $100 oil now? And hats off to the SEC for eliminating the uptick on shorts rule. :D

A real danger for this week (if you're long, that is) would be a flat day Tuesday, then a disappointing or even inline Apple earnings report after the close to send the market down hard. There are still plenty of people bullish on tech in general and we haven't, IMHO, had a selling climax in...

"Paulson runs into Bush! Fummm-ble!!! They're both flat on their backs and mumbling about consensus! Doh!"

Consumer confidence and Leading Indicators at 10am ET. Might cause a bit of trouble for the rally.

IBM up 5 bucks in after market, futures ticking higher...Some of the talking heads are saying buy if we gap lower at tomorrow's open but it seems unlikely to me that we're going to have a rally before a 3 day weekend when some indices have just hit bear market territory. I know expirations can...

Thank you.

Good Lord...No one can make even the most generic comment around here without a Market Genius stepping in with some "education." Spare me.

I hope you're right. Everyone would be better off if you are. Good call earlier. Too many people, especially here, think extreme, over-the-top bearishness at all times is the same thing as being an intelligent trader.

Yeah, interesting. Connect the 10/11 high with the 10/31 high and today's 1486 close could also indicate a buy. Also, run a Fibonacci fan from the 10/11 high to the 11/26 low and you get another support line at 1486. I think most people (including me) are pretty bearish after this idiotic...

Hmm. You claim I have an "irresponsible ass" and that I'm wanting the Fed to bail out me and who knows who else. You are a dumb son of a bitch and a stupid fucking blowhard as well as a typical example of why I hardly ever post here anymore.

Absolutely right. We were up over 7% in ten trading sessions! We rallied because we were testing a low and the Fed's Don Kohn made a speech that indicated the Fed would cut .50. Well, they didn't cut .50, we were overextended, so the market sold off. However, one of the long term...

"...Since 2004, deficit spending has tumbled by $251 billion, which is one of the most rapid three-year declines in U.S. history. The deficit as a share of the economy is down to 1.2%, or about half the average of the last 50 years. This improvement is especially remarkable given the $150 to...

Usually, the gaps are in the opposite direction of their calls. The most valuable part of the show is the BS'ing about the day's market action, what events are coming up and what are hot stocks and industries. I've never acted on any of their "tips" on stocks and never would.

Ratigan's dick is your area of interest, not ours.

You see, you're operating under the delusion that being a five-star cunt means that you're interesting. You're sadly mistaken. :) Try volunteering in your community. Doing some charity work. Eventually, some people will probably at least pretend you're interesting and pretend they like...

That explains your appearance. :D
