Looks like the volume was so high near the end that the tape was 5/6 minutes behind. I haven't seen that in a loooooooooong time.

Leo,

Projections for tomorrow? Dip in the morning trading?

If I knew that I would have retired frome this crazy a$$ business years ago!

How weird that it closed on 6,7,8,9,1(0) on 10/9/8....coincidence anyone?

dow futures is down 601.00 right now so i'd say if the market opens tomorrow we are going to slide down to the 8,000 range or below.

From the article:

The Nasdaq composite index, with a bevy of tech stocks, showed more lasting gains because of advances by companies like Intel Corp

I just find that funny since Intel (INTC) was down about 4% today. I hardly call that an "advance".

Hmmm

Japan is already down almost 10% and HK is off 8%.

Let's see where this goes as it winds over Europe.

Started a 401k 3 weeks ago, just as "everything" began hitting the fan. Is this a "buy low" or just stupid?
