Thanks JP.....I have very mixed emotions over this.....I had several close to me miraculously survive, while others were not so lucky......emotional rollercoaster. I am trying my best to do my thing, move on and stay busy. As for our equit markets....I will not be one to panic sell upon re-opening.....In fact, I may be doing some panic buying, if the panic sellers and shorts drive the market down..........But I am hearing alot of positives so far.. Fed is adding massive liquidity Major houses are agreeing to step to the plate and buy if necessary. Possible Fed Rate cut in very near future SEC removing restrictions for companies to buy back their own stock. This will add more liquidity, lower the high valuations and dilution of of some stocks, and add to consumer confidence. Good chance shorts will try and be patriotic and do their thing by buying to cover. Anybody that shorts the market now, IMO, is only helping the terrorists accomplish their goal, so maybe shorts will think twice....there will be time for them to short again later, but now it is time to do what is best for america...I am hoping that shorts ses this, and rather then helping the terrorists achieve their goal, they can help america by helping us revive our economy/equity markets..... Anyway, it looks like the big biys are stepping up and doing what is necessary to show these terrorists that we cannot be taken down....who knows, it may just be the catalyst we need to revive the markets....and then again, we could be tossed into a recession lasting years......time will tell.....me personally, i was a buyer of certain equities prior to this attack, and I will continue to be a buyer when markets re-open. I will not allow these terrorists to alter my way of life and hope other americans stand by our country and do the same. Keith
