Such a centralized planning wouldn't be such a bad idea were we trading at the top of the range. But to see Uncle Sam meddling everytime the market is or about to hit a new bottom is VERY troubling.Quote from Lawrence Chan:
Since hearing the news about the bailout, and that indices are up huge, my 1st thought is that I do not want to trade the US indices anymore. A "centralized planning" on index values that is updated everyday according to government official figures is not the same market we've traded for all these years.

Yeah, I thought so. But back to the subject of "car", I never suggested that it wasn't a valid term, only that it's an outdated word that you wouldn't normally hear down at the CME Spooz pit.Quote from Spooz Top:
