So after seeing just how fast the market recovered on the 6th, is another similar crash more or less likely? Here is my guess. The lesson of the crash was that it was a huge buying opportunity, so if the Dow is suddenly down let's say 600 points, more eager buyers would step in and faster thus preventing further drop. So I am guessing a less likely probability...
1) 3-4-1-1 2) Ah yes, the "soft landing" scenario. 3) ?....!....Wait a minute! Did you mean a series of 200-point downmoves in the Dow Jones or 200 consecutive down days? :eek:
Definitely will be bearish for the intermediate term. S&P500 fibonacci 0.618 retracement for late 2008 crash is 1,200 points. So definitely, we're looking at S&P500 1,200 point cap for the next little while.
If you're rolling two die and you roll double sixes 10 times in a row what are the chances that the next roll will be double sixes?
