It was already looking for an excuse..to many calls were out and in the money and the dollar was having nothing but a hard time. The dow lost 600 pts in our eyes this week, or 5% but foreigners saw it as 6-1/2% due to the dollar drop. We are no longer the safe haven we were last year.. and while they don't hold a majority of our stock it don't take but 10% getting out to send her into a tail spin. The Cartel of currecy changers will buy the market with cheap dollars then cover their dollar shorts. Without a tobin tax on currency swaps they have a money tree they can shake any time they want.
