Nah, I don't mean Black Monday stuff, just a bad expiration and a drop for SP to 1160 or so to make the bottom. They used to be zero probability, but we had a few of those this past year. Let's see. August 2007 November 2007 January 2008 March 2008 But even that is unknown. <G> Now, if we do get a bad expiration, and that bottom falls out as well, that would be a crash. A Black Monday. That's very rare. <G>

LOL... OTOH, chalk another one up to Heinz... Phat Phannie, bubbles major bagholder bitting the dust. One of the most profound observations back then (what 5 or so years ago?)...: "the biggest business in America is creating money". LOL, thanks again Heinz... Sadly as it pans out it won't be "LOL"... OTOH, it's the "cheerleaders" and book writers back then that will be clammering the loudest about how they know everything and what caused what and what to do about it... the more silent thoughtful observers like Heinz will probably continue to be that. :)) DAK
