Lets see if the dow can go up 30 points from 15385

Well yes it can, but via a very circuitous route.

 

[SuddenDeath]

think people took of bets while obama spoke and once he ended put on risk, speech had no surprises.

Hey SD
the new Dowboys (including Goldman) managed an 80 point down move and a 95 point up move in the first 2 hours.
Maybe the 'good ole days' ARE back.

 

[Dick Lexic]

what rejection? it's filled the gap and holding just above pre-tapernews level for the moment. got the fiscal cliff shenanigans to throw it about a bit this week as well.

just saying what saut said., day before taper news, dow was 15,532 close. today we have low of 15,340

markets discounting tapering = 15,532,

markets know no tapering until least october. 15,340

this is not a rejection? 360pts below the taper peak euphoria

"down the drains" is that cockney rhyming slang? what could it all mean

 

[Dick Lexic]

yeah well i've been a like a little squirrel hanging on to his nuts all day

 

[postman]

I'm feeling a little confused about my identity.
Sounds like none of us are having a great day.

 

[Dick Lexic]

i'm having a great day ...oh no i'm not... oh yes i am ...oh no i'm not ...

no, it's for real. i got root problems in the main manhole - the gardener won't go down, the wife laughs (like a drain), my son conveniently busy, Thames Water charge the earth, so it's left to poor old me and me childhood MickeyMouse gas mask.
