Joel,

The fact that an index rose 500% in 7 years is not the reason for
the 40% drop. It is the fact that it was no longer supported by
economic reality. As far as I know we don't have that problem over
here (overthere for myself, but that's any story).

Tuesdays move cannot be explained this way. Most of the small
investors didn't have the chance to buy, especially in the first
hour. I think that we should say that at least we have a very,
very strong resistance at that level.

So the bottomline is that we have a slowth in growth, and lower
interest-rates in the near future. And we also have a market that
have tanked 10 to 15% percent, with very strong resistance around
7000.

Isn't that exactly what we all wanted one month ago.
