Swore the stock market was supposed to collapse at least 50 times if not more from reading this site. Next week the market will collapse, no wait it will be in two weeks, or maybe three.

Haven't you heard, the markets dropped to 2000 and golds shot to 5000 an oz! We're headed into another great depression; mass starvation, riots, exploding toilets. Oh happy day!

Lots of folks thinking about theme songs, it seems:

TheStreet.com: Stocks See Red in a Bloody Selloff

By Eric Gillin, Editorial Assistant, 10/13/99 3:10 PM ET

Peter Gabriel sang about red rain and how it fell down all over him. U2 sang about Sunday bloody Sundays. UB40 sang about red red wines.

The market should follow suit and sing about red red stocks that fall on a Wednesday bloody Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was off 86. The Nasdaq Composite was terrible, giving in 49 today and down over 90 since hitting a new record two days ago. The bond has been weak all day. Mid-Caps and small fries have been fried all day. And the techs? The techs are terrible, too..

Watch support levels at Dow 10,200, Nasdaq 2600, and S&P 1280. Those are roughly 10% from the high and were tested by that last little slide in late September.
