Yes, Abby has been very influential. But there is little she can do with regard to all the margin calls. There is still alot of profit left on the table, the natural thing for people is to protect it.

A. Cohen just did her thaaang....man,what a set up....coincidently (?), 2 weeks ago she goes to 5% cash and now after this latest week's debacle, she will decide this weekend whether to get back in or not. Coincidence, right! What part of manipulated do we not get?

Which leads to my question re your comments; do you think its the retail investor who will be the one to jump start the rally on Monday? Personally I think it will be the big institutions who will move first; as they scoop up shares and raise prices what ever margin calls are due for Monday will be reduced as the day progresses. At least with Fidelity, margin calls do not have to be completed until 3 PM EST of the trading day. If the market is in a decent rally mode many of those margin calls will be wiped out or reduced significantly.

JMO.
