Tony,

>To bad Mr.Market isn't rational

I tend to agree with you except I would assign the market a different gender.... :-) I tend to view it as a bear of the female variety. Nice and playful, but largely unpredictable and very dangerous at times!

That isn't so clear to me. While I make no claims to rationality, I have been known to answer margin calls by selling chip stocks to maintain my LGND position!

>The NASDAQ will open down at least 30, DOW down 100.

But how low will it close? :-)

Thanks, Torben
