Hong Kong massacre is continuing. Opened 8% down and is now
down 19% for the session. That's freefall !!!!! Off 40% from its high.

Ocoto, GF: At this point I am not to worried. If you are a long term invester, everything will be fine. IMO
If you are short term, you are probably down after today, and last week, and probably a bit worried.
I play both long and short term, so I guess I have a split feeling tonight.
I do agree that after Greenspan speaks on Wednesday, buying should pick up.
I also agree that with all the Shorting of the Nasdaq stocks, many Shorts will start Buying ( covering their position ) starting as soon as Tommorow.

If you are in a stock that can not be bought on Margin, or shorted, you should be better off then the stocks that can have Margin Calls and/or shorted.

I would think that the Asian money would cont. to flow into our markets as a safe haven. Its moving into the Bond and Treasure bill markets right now.
I still take note of the fact that Gold was down today. Gold is usually a safe haven in times of uncertianty, but not so today.
The safe haven seems to be US Bonds and Treasury Bills.
