Dow Jones over 9999, world burns! The floor of the NYSE was positively bursting with anticipation as the time wore down. With the market creeping closer and closer to the mythical 10,000 mark, normally frantic stockbrokers were glued to the ticker as the numbers marched upwards. And just as trading closed the mighty Dow odometer ticked over. Unfortunately, just like an odometer it ticked past 9999 and came to rest reading 0000. The shocked silence was only broken by one unknown stockbroker, whose cry of fff----------kkkkkk!!!!!!! echoed eerily around the suddenly silent exchange. "Holy shit, Holy shit, I'm penniless!" cried an unnamed investment banker as he smashed a supermarket window with his briefcase and filled it with canned fruit.<< D. Taylor, i don't know sometimes... i didn't think much of it, Dow 10,000, big fff---king deal and the only thing i see burning is Amzn and Yhoo right now!! I hope your holiday is as good as mine.
