Daniel,

I figure with all of the latest news. The pressure this week (gold up,taiwan,trade,etc.) the heat in the bowels of the ship has gotten to the boiling point and the rats are headed up to the deck. Hold on to your butts!!!!

Notice: I said up to the deck, not jumping off----Yet.

The stress levels for those in the know must be unbearable. waiting til that last nano-second. I think the saying greed is a monster seems accurrate. Kind of reminds me of the movie--"treasure of the sierra madre" Who ever blinks first!!! then Whammmmmmmmmmmo!!!!

Servers all locked up!!! then to the phones!

Unbelievable that gold could rise almost $10 from yesterday and not a word from Andy. Me thinks there is much going on behind the curtian.

at 10:35cst, it was down 101. How far will it slide today?

Probably some more however it has gone up in the last year when it didn't really make sense to go up so who knows!

I think it is a good thing to lose some value. The prices people are paying for stocks is ridiculous based on the dividends they are getting. The stock-buying public need to wake up to the fact that prices do not ALWAYS keep going higher and higher.........maybe it will put a little sanity in the market.

Of course, it will take a lot for sanity to outrank greed..........
