Just a blip on the road, the trend is still VERY strongly bullish. As Cramer noted, hedge funds need to make up for their losses and will be buying to create a year-end rally. Today's dip will scare off the average Joe's waiting on the sidelines...like me. Firmly in cash, but looking to buying for the year end rally.

So what happens when the firm goes bust, Corzine leaves, and lots of other people lose their jobs? DealBook reported that Corzine's severance package could allow him to walk away with around $12 million. $12 million for joining a company and, in two years, flying it into a mountain.
