Maybe so. I don't see any compelling reason why ASND will hold up better than anyone else if the sector takes a bath.

I've heard of the futures hitting their limits a few times in the last six months, and I don't remember anything disastrous happening when the market finally opened. I think if the guys trading futures really did know the future any better than we do, they'd have purchased their own countries by now. Translation: futures traders, like analysts, aftermarket traders, inside traders, the Beardstown Ladies, and Motley Fools are just as full of baloney as anyone else.

We'll see.

P.S. What is this garbage on South Park?

Blank,

Was you on vacation (without a laptop) all week last week? I think that you made enough money for 2 more trips? :)

Blank, don't scare me like this. S&P futures as reported by Globex is 100x that reported by CNBC. Hence, lock limit down on CNBC is -15.0, lock limit down on Globex is -1500.

S&P Futures (CNBC) currently +.5

Looks like a fairly even open (at this time).

Asia all down. Europe all up. US ????
