Don-The March numbers have been stronger than expected for several years and this one was only a little stronger so I suspect they had priced in negative expectations. These numbers were strong but not toooo strong!-I think you are right on the money with the sell the rally and buy puts mentality as McClellan summation is turning negative and it shows the momentum of the market. Be nimble and make $$!

I have not seen the numbers, perhaps Bart is correct. Non-Farm was to be a problem if it was higher than 300,000. Best guess is, with respect to yesterday's moderate decline, any numbers were good numbers. Fine with me. Let 'em bring it up as high as they like. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EDIR. Also, you must take into account the factor that the numbers were an "Unknown Factor" going in to the morning. Now that the suspense is out of the way there is some release, however temporary.
