The good news was ORCL beating estimate but when they saw future a little iffy then it was an overall negative to go with AMD and AAPL warnings, which followed the recent INTC warnings. At that point the street ingnored the good B2B and threw in the towel. If we don't hold 1500 tomorrow we'll probably be testing the 911 lows as the inflated techs (high PEs) will likely drag down the rest of the market with it.

The ideal situation would be a repeat of Monday with a stupid sell off and then heavy bargin hunting. However, I think I'll hit the golf course tomorrow instead of watching the herd go bonkers again.

I honestly don't know. It's hard to believe it's AMD's or ORCL's guidance. I'll try to find out. Maybe it will improve before morning. I sold almost all my "long" positions during the day or in A.H.'s after the AMD report but still hold some MLNM and AMAT calls (which are likely going to expire worthless).

I probalby will be looking to pick up some select semi stocks if things stabilize at lower levels after the strong B2B report. Still, this weakness is odd. Perhaps a focus on Geo-political tensions after a couple days of absence? Maybe the dollar is dropping in overseas markets?
