<p>Before I leave this place again I just thought this would be a good thread. It might even be worth checking back to see how it’s going. Say whatever you like here. Just blabber away.</p>
<p>Here’s my blabbering. Up 396 today. Good day. Woopee. </p>
<p>Just blabber away.</p>
<p>Yup – it always goes up right after we sell something.</p>
<p>I gather from your username that you play tennis? I love tennis and play a few times a week.</p>
<p>Last Friday, I should have gone to at least the knees rather than my ankles.</p>
<p>My wife asked me how the market did today. I told her, up a bit… 300 or 400 points depending on where they close it… ho hum… A 5% move is ho hum now!</p>
<p>5% up and 100% more to go to recover. Sigh. But I’ll take it. </p>
<p>Is the market reacting to Obama’s choice of economic team?</p>
<p>I wouldn’t be surprised. Its a team that will do more of what’s been done over the last 16 years to Wall Street’s advantage.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, a 60% fall followed by a 60% rise doesn’t bring you back to even (ask any holder of Citigroup)…so up days don’t bring as much yahoo-ing as you’d think.</p>
<p>I was watching a movie from the late 90’s and the radio in the background of the scene said something about ‘The Dow closed at 9760’ today…I almost cried.</p>
<p>I keep having that tip-of-the-tongue syndrome when I try to recall the latest buzz-word… Capitulation…</p>
<p>11/25/08 up 36 points</p>
<p>So,… finally! a normal day!!! Yes, is this the beginning of something wonderful?</p>
