As more folks expect this they will wait to buy in at that level. We have a terrific day of consolidation coming but it won't break down that much. it rockets up after that to flat line at 6800. We trade between 6800 and 8,000(absolute max) for the remainder of this year. I know I know I'm being optimistic. I'll come back and admit as much if I'm wrong :)techie22311https://www.blogger.com/profile/03958784242867130761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-24431822715897305992009-03-02T13:06:00.000-08:002009-03-02T13:06:00.000-08:00One word: Caterpillar.Crushed despite every happy ...One word: Caterpillar.<BR/><BR/>Crushed despite every happy talking point of the MSM. <BR/><BR/>I'm looking at the tare and 13 year lows are reading "stocks hold support and finish above lows of the day."Rob Dawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10042154106850545479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-48921273072580794542009-03-02T12:27:00.000-08:002009-03-02T12:27:00.000-08:00Wow, I knew it wasn't going to hold 7k, but now it...Wow, I knew it wasn't going to hold 7k, but now it's dropped right through 6800 and threatening 6700.

Is this where KC gets in the financial business?<BR/><BR/>Personnally, I think Wall Street is playing a game to shake down the US Government yets again. Same game big oil plays with shortages whenever they want a bigger profit.<BR/><BR/>They best watch it. My wife is starting to get pissed, and they are target #1. Only a matter of time before the taxpayers say ENOUGH!<BR/><BR/>Here is my plan.<BR/><BR/>1. Screw the poor babies because they have to sell good assets. They are dead, do not know it, but they are still getting paid. They ought to agree to everything Washington says.<BR/><BR/>2. For each infusion of new taxpayer money another exec committee member has to go to jail for 3 years. Start with highest paid and work your way down. Bet they get the numbers right fast.<BR/><BR/>3. Put some of those wall street clowns to work for the US govt at $30K to do a proper mark to market on all that toxic paper. The talent is around and looking for work.H Simpsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00466102784332540445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-36539351455074075972009-03-02T11:46:00.000-08:002009-03-02T11:46:00.000-08:00I had about 20 pounds of excess rice the last time...I had about 20 pounds of excess rice the last time there was a rice shortage.
