Fuzzy:
"I think the Plunge Protection is putting the floor in right now."
I don't think the traders know what to think or where to jump. About all I see across the board, stocks, commodities, currency, is indecision. Yeah stocks have given back what they had gained today, plus a little right now, but no really dramatic moves, a blip on currencies that actually stengthened the dollar just after the vote, before returning back onto the curve it was tracing earlier today, commodities mixed to slightly down overall, after being simply mixed earlier.
So did the traders expect the bill not to pass? I doubt it, unless they were all buying on rumor, selling on news.
But the Plungers kicking in? don't think so. They'd have to be working right across the board(s). You see any "Index" buying?
I await the first serious purchase decisions of our new Overlord, Hank the Gold Man, before the markets really start jumping out of their skins. 7500 anyone?
I wonder if Bush is going to simply skip the photo-op and just fax in his signature .
In any case, I bet Paulson and Bernanke have already worked out out what they are going to be doing this weekend.
Now we're starting to see negative press on the bailout bill. Fuckers.

I bought this pitchfork yesterday (the picture is an actual photo from lowes.com of the same item that I bought) for $ 16.99. I need your help on the next step of my project.
I am not kidding.
