Hong Kong and South Korea not doing well either. Most markets in the red today.

Waiting for the Stock Market Watch in LBN, but I'm sure they're trying to ingest all this before posting.

4. That was constructive.
:thumbsdown:

You see, stupd, nobody advanced any wild "conspiracy theories here".

So let's just say you were getting "ahead of the curve" with your patronizing commentary.

2. Yes They Are, 16 Posts And Counting
I came across an article in CNBC yesterday predicting the market would be bearish for a while. It seems that the money supply has ran out and business and government are now competing for what money is available to loan. China/Wal-Mart bailed us out for a while, but that money is gone.

5. Wall Street Escapes Global Sell Off
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A33759-2000Jun21.html

that headline sounds pretty eerie to me ?? .. But the JOBS report saved the day >>

..."The number of new applications for jobless benefits and the number of people drawing benefits both came down in the past week and now are the best they've been since last spring, the Labor Department said.

After that report, the Dow Jones industrial average and the Standard & Poor's 500 stock index quickly recovered and spent the rest of the day struggling between modest profits and small losses. " ...

more and more people are running out of benefits, so they fall off the rolls .. buy duct tape
