The Europeans are selling this market right along with the Japanese -- they have been trying to leave in an orderly manner -- but as the ship sinks it will get pushy -- I don't know about tomorrow -- but come Monday I think foreign money will be getting more edgy -- Europe could sell-off pretty hard on Monday before our market opens. Europeans account for 60% of last years flows into US stocks and bonds. They are less afraid of intervention -- heck, Europe would like a little more uumph in their currency.

I think there will be some sober reassessment of risk levels by all concerned after today's tragedy. Charles Manson, in his own demented way, etched the high-water mark of the sixties. Perhaps the horrible murder of defenceless people today was the high water mark of this day trading Las Vegas style stock market.

<<I'd give a 50/50 chance that tomorrow will be the biggest down day in the history of our markets. I imagine a lot of daytraders will decide to stay home, perhaps permenently. How will the market react without all those momo players?>>

Why do you make all these bold predictions (another example is your interest rate prediction, aol never going above 115, etc..)? It only sets you up for being wrong.
