So Cowboy is our first casualty, and probably not the last. I personally don't even use margin (because the #$%#$ers at Fidelity won't let me...it's the whole no job thing...those whiners), and I feel sorry for those of you who do. I have honestly never seen anything like today without some sort of economically bad news. This just doesn't make sense. I keep thinking that a chainmail went around to all of the mm's and specialists saying "let's screw the little guys today!" Hopefully I am right and we will have a +15 day tomorrow.

Sincerely Qweasy,
Dust
