V: A Great Discussion of 'The Wealth Effect'... Message 15499395 Best Regards, Scott BTW, things don't look good at the open today...overseas markets are not healthy and IMO there is actually a good chance the FED may step in and try to calm the markets. I feel there is greater than a 50% chance of a surprise rate cut in the next 48 hours....Just my view...=)

tom....oddly enough, i'm not going to totally disagree with you....i'm watching pre market small trades at the ask, substantially lower then yesterday close(atml has traded 10 on the ask..10 13/16 on the bid)....i talked to a traders desk, and no one knows what the catalyst has been for the futures down..... the inmates are running the asylum...not good, but a reality...wall street news has become main street news....the wall of worry is growing.... the first hour will be telling...probable spike down, but if support is held on issues that are attempting to base, then buying may begin....... the houses is where i disagree...they have been as inept as the retail investor, only their magnitude moves markets up and down.... only to remind you of the october 1998 morning when most large cap techs opened down more then fifty percent.... perceived bank problems can give justification for rapid rate cuts by the fed....thankful that a republican administration is in.... the dynamics are in place...but a very delicate balance...can fall short term to either side of the fence... i care not about the indices, only specific stocks...the more they test and hold, the stronger they become... not sure why futures down so much...but they are.. good luck ed a.

<<We should see a tremendous reversal this afternoon from the worse of the day - >> I will be gone most of day ( thank god <ggg>)...but will be interested to see if buyers step in.....I think if we have a real bad sell off, we could see some late day buying...after all, there is alot of cash and that cash will slowly and cautiously buy on these big dips we experience, BUT, I still feel that no matter what happens, a bottom has not yet been set, and lower levels will be seen ....JMOOC Keith....enjoy your golf day.....I have to get back to the day job and try and make some money without worrying about it being cut in half overnight and then again the next night...and then again....and again........Can you say naz 1000? Probably not <ggg>....but you couldnt say naz 2000 or naz 3000 either, so........... have a great day...hope it aint as windy in atlanta as it is in charlotte or your score may not be where you wish on the course<ggg>
