Volume due to transit strike?

[The Kin]

I wonder how trading action will be today. Could we see lighter volume thanks to the transit strike in NY?

I would definitely think so...



there is no way into the city

In 1980, employees were bused into the city, ferried in and senior execs had hotel rooms. I wouldnt call the market DOA yet!

===================
GM had plenty of volume by any measure;
mostly sell volume.
Think most anybody that wanted to work found a way.

Cool free read by Kevin Haggerty [tradingmarkets.com],he figures volume/liquidity will decline, but related it to Christmas holiday week.
And figures the generals/hedge funds will be buying SPX;
'' expect them to attempt pushing it higher to maximize 2005 performance ''[SPX]
