Plunge Protection Team sets a new line in the sand: 9750.

When will the feds fess up and admit that they are gaming the market? Where will they draw the next line?

Their free market fundamentalism is bullshit for us to be hornswoggled with. Clearly they don't believe any of it.

3. That's right; the intraday low of 9738 means a 31% drop in the past 52 weeks

2. The DJIA is barely above that mark at this point in time.
The brief rally just after 11 pulled the Dow away from that threshold, but it is slowly sinking back to that line once again.

4. 9788 Right now
And I expect it will close lower.

I wonder if they'll start talking about Bailout 2.0 this evening or tomorrow.

8. A new line is being drawn right now.
The inrush of emergency cash from the feds FAILED and the market is blowing though their line.
