It seems that the one group that generally score, irrespective of the conditions, are the Market Makers ('Specialists'). It would be interesting to see what the result would be if one placed a buy 'market order', prior to the market opening on Monday, for a stock or Index affected by bad news, "going nuts", etc.., and then sold reasonably shortly afterwards as the price, presumably, rose as the Market Makers filled buy orders.
