Half an hour would hit da spot. Margin calls will cause some nice bitchslappin.....I mean BIDslappin.

Lots of great negative sentiment everywhere this weekend. Need dat fear to create real good bargains fer Panama. Long term holders can weather this storm easily. Daytraders that are leveraged up their ying yangs will be begging fer mercy.

When tings look blackest buy kwality....

IS IT MONDAY YET.......???

Michael, are you going to be using those two hours to buy puts? <g>

If there's a sharp decline at the open, would you sell part of your position, looking to buy back after this 'inevitable' rally, or is that just too risky? I keep hearing Bill F. saying something about one of these days the markets are not going to come back ... ah well, being somewhat light at the moment, I think I've answered my own question. <g>

Here's the math. Big bank owned firm, 200 margin clerks average 300 margin calls each this morning and most calls being covered by cash .........so far. Tks e P.S. The compliance department is swamped! I ran into an old friend this morning and at his office, 3 big producers have been let go last week ........what did they have in common?........all under 30!
