Another consideration is that options expire tomorrow. Some of this week's action is tied to this event. PS: I also think that some of this week's downward momentum is based on a lack of "comfort" with our policies in Iraq and the failure of the president to rally support from his press conference. He had a number of opportunities to hit a home run and he just couldn't do it. I expected to come away with a more positive outlook but instead we just got more of the same ol' responses. I'm very surprised his staff didn't have him prepared for the questions being raised or that they didn't have the "home runs" rehearsed. I know if I say anymore we'll get off the Semi track, so I'll just leave it there and please forgive my mentioning of politics but I do think it has had an influence on the market this week! (Mainly the additional costs piling up and other "unanswered" questions about the future in Iraq, one year later...)

I try to post some stuff here in real time, but priorities place those that pay me first on the list plus my own account is right up there... then my own site.. I try to post what I can here, such as my belief today that we are seeing a test of a larger bottom set earlier, when I have time to contribute to the pot of original work here. BTW, I've found you most often get what you pay for but I don't blame you one bit as I hate to pay for anything myself. Others find paying for a bit of help here and there saves them time. Kirk
