Amy, Usually a major correction or bear market ends with a bang, not a wimper. Last October (I think the 18th) was a good example. Folks just sell everything, with market orders. It looks like the bottom is falling out, and there will never be any buyers. It's a gut wrenching, straight down climatic sell-off. Then, it ends. We actually could get that today, with the failed morning rally. Or sometime this week. We now are in a bear market in the NASDAQ comp. Hard to see how they will keep this market down in the face of good earnings. It's really hard to pick the bottom though, that's why I like to average in. John

Amy, re: <I don't know. I didn't see the real panic selling you usually get with a bottom.> "Would you please expand on what you've seen in the past?" Today was an almost perfect example of what I was talking about. I hope you had a chance to watch the market during the day. I hope and suspect that this was at least a short term bottom. John
