I don't think this drop is the "big one" - not yet.
Pek raises a very good point about inflation. IMO the feds are *trying* to inflate the USD. They have very good reasons to create inflation -- and they are doing their damnedest to create it.
Since the feds and the banks are such good buddies - I think the message to the banks about the markets is: don't let it crash until inflation kicks in... then the "big one" crash has the illusion of being a lot softer.
Short term - I think they take it up to 1100-ish/daily 200ma ... then we come down again ...but in the worst case >950.
