I went downstairs to eat a snack....I'm kind of glad I wasn't at my screens during the spike. One stock I bought this morning in the teens shows a low price for the day of 0.01 :eek: Several other stocks on my screen are showing 0.01 lod's too. I'm actually glad I missed the whole thing...I probably would have been freaking out...now I'm kind of relieved that the market is only down 4% or so, even though this is probably my worst trading day of the year so far. (All long today...bleh..)

Hehehe...I was in nothing but gold & silver. I saw no spike, just upward momentum. Got a +$30 gain in gold. Not too bad.
