Lisa,

Generally, I've seen the market try and retest support that was broken before continuing down....that support today was around 967 (methinks...)

Lisa; RE:" CNBC..."

...so interesting to be un-wired over here in Paris - no TV.

I forgot what it was like to have the "shared experience" of the American media, always present, everyone seeing the same thing; You mention things in conversations and just assume that everyone else will know what the hell it is you're talking about, because we're all watching the same thing :-/ Sometimes, I have to surf over to their WWWeb site, or some other American news media site, to figger out just what in the world everyone is talking about on SI.

The markets go up and make a new high, and everyone is buying CALLs at the top. Then the markets go down for three days, and everyone is talking about the next Armageddon, buying PUTs.

Sometimes, I look up (out) my window - there's Paris out there. There are people bustling about, pouring in to and out of the Metro, sitting in caf‚s, drinking little cups of potent Italian coffee, leaning over - so intense, they are, when they talk - completely oblivious to the biz-buzz that is the news.

Somehow, life goes on. They get up, leave 12 francs on the little round table, say merci, au revoir to the waiter, and disappear down the Metro. I don't know where they go. Maybe it's on TV ?
