The markets appear to be trending downward. Possibly a small bounce today and down again on Friday.

Three-day weekend coming up.

I agree completely on Friday's performance, and jiggyboy, you seem to be well versed in the trend factors.

So, if 'The Biggest Shopping Day of the Year" just around the corner, and consumers seriously reel back from their spending, a 2,000 point drop in the DOW before Christmas? I'd say that's a 2:1 bet.

I don't see how that's not going to happen as credit tightens.
