  3. You hit the nail on the head,, in a bull market most news is percieved as bullish in a bear market the same news is viewed negatively. Therefore as you say we are in a bear market.

  4. The nasdaq is what 100 points below its 200dma, SP now 10 under its. Guess the dow is next. What are the republicans going to do? the only thing they had to hang their hat on is slipping thru their hands like oil.

  5. that news was no accident, the timing was incredibly intentional coming at the US open when markets around the world started the beginning of another freefall yesterday afternoon
