  5. The downside push was getting weaker and weaker. That was seen by the decreasing volume and all the positive divergences in the indicators. So buyers were just lying and waiting. Stalking. Once it hit the lows the buyers started scooping up the bottom.

    If only I had put in a buy limit order for 830. :)

    I think this is a temporary bottom. We'll be back for the 2002 lows next year.

  8. The market is perfectly rational (according to its own rules, not the outside rules).
