LG I have to wait on Monty's scan, but on the surface I don't think
the market sold off as hard as it looked, there was a concerted
effort by some offshore hedge funds to short the market hard today,
and I think they gave it their best shot..right as I type this
they seem to be going for broke, they are already in trouble with
their long bets in Russia, and are trying to play catch up going
short the US. if it don't work some of them will go belly up.
They are leveraged out to the hilt. I'm closing my DIA at 85-1/8
if it takes. Bears still strong in the pits and may set up a gap
down for Monday,

Jim
