Weird daily chart for AMAT today. I guess triple witching does strange things to a stock's price. AMAT almost always tracking the daily ups and downs of the NASDAQ. But not today. Tomorrow is more of a roll of the dice than usual, IMHO. bigcharts.com

Their predicting an opening tick of down 80-100 points thim morning for the dow. The only thing that is goof for is if you trade the OEX, the volitility is great for that on expiration date. You can also lose alot very fast. Let us hope that AMAT continues its strength from yesterday and doesn't get plowed under like the others seemed poised to today..

Re: Japan down 5.71%; S. Korea down 1.1% Brian, if US always got the short end of the stick, how come US stock market outperform their for almost 10 years? Do you know an average US citizen works shorter time but consumer more goods than Japan, Korea counterparts? If you have been Tokyo, you will find out that the money in your wallet would not last long. Just thinking about the people who live there everyday. It is not a pretty picture for average working people although they DO have some empty national pride. JMHO. I hope their people will not someday wake up and find out all their huge savings being spent to save some inefficient companies. regards derek
