Next support is at 12.8k, and we’ll be back down to July’s numbers.

......And in turn, you will pay dearly for this by launching the second American civil war in response back by those whom you will try to seek revenge to who are not for you.

Apple is now in bear market territory, down more than 20%. Our nation is mathematically challenged.

The Washington Post has an article on the fall. It’s blaming it on Europe. Yeah, because last night’s election had nothing to do with it.

"Remember the infamous phrase.... “do not let a crises go to waste.”

Yep. Just watch: the leftists are going to be salivating over a new opportunity to fully nationalize the banks, and impose severe controls over the free-market...

Wait until the crash in a month or two.

Christmas shopping? Nope. Let the DimRat seasonal retail workers starve.

You left out banning guns.

It’s time to stock up on ammo and weapons. Prices on guns are going up as we speak. Get them now or never!

I bet the Dow goes down 500-600 by the end of the day.

Watch King Obama will throw billions at the market and it will come back. That will be the biggest bailout in history. Just thinking. I know, it cannot happen but I don’t trust that lying piece of garbage.
