Anyone scalping the FTSE Futures??

The S&P wants to go up but the Dow is having none of it.

Slow decline into the close.
 
How stupid of me not to realise, Dow closes at the Low -80 on Monday so it must close at the high on Tuesday. All makes perfect sense (in a world by Terry Pratchett).
 
You are taking this far too seriously. :whistling

It's the Dow we are talking about. 30 companies that are traded out of some slush fund off the Caymen's.

Believe the hype, buy the rumour, sell the fact! I'm never going to forget General Motors reaching their highs when oil hit $150 with their manufacturing costs 50% above their competitors. BUT someone off some remote Island thought they were super value. :LOL:


fwiw - It's always worth glancing at this heat map to get a feel for the market.

American indices closed higher, boosted by some consumption data and seasonal factors. Yesterday were published Cyber ​​Monday sales that surprised by the positive. Given the same Monday last year, online sales grew 16%, a growth rate higher than the 12% estimated. This variation reassure many investors who had been concerned about the disappointing sales in stores and shopping centers. Another variable that inspired buyers is that December is traditionally a positive month for equities. Generally, the pattern of this month is characterized by an initial rise during the first week, followed by a correction and a rally at the end of the month.
 
Anyone think this might be an important level for the Dow?
