The DOW closed down 514, S&P broke below nine hundo, sucks. Mr. Peanut (who belongs to my friend Tina over at Fashionism) was NOT impressed.
For the trading types, I noticed today that the general trend of “whatever the market is doing going into the last hour gets exacerbated hardcore by the end of the day” remained intact, but that we pulled out of the tailspin a little bit in the last 10-15 minutes instead of closing down, say, 700. Wonder who was buying.

If Hank Paulson would change his facial expressions more often, I would have used him instead.

It must be official if Mr. P confirms the economy is not fundamentally sound!

I saw this on the bus and laughed like a pyscho! But that is okay because the bus is full of pyschos!
