Hello??? Is this thing on????

You freakin right this things on! Burn baby burn.

Will be up by the end of the day tomorrow.

I'm not so sure this time. But, if the past few years are any indicator, you may be right!

It's the 3rd Friday, people. The derivative market always tanks on the 3rd Friday as people sell off their expired options. Try not to freak about it. Same kind of thing has happened almost every 3rd Friday for years.

Big woop. It has been up a lot so just giving up some gains.

Smells like CARSH to me...

Wait till tomorrow morning, the fed will pump it back into the up!

I was depressed two months ago with my 401K. I looked at it yesterday, and it was up $25,000!

Yeah, thats it skippy, giving up some 'gains'.

in other words, losses of millions if not billions overall.

Big whoop.

this, no big deal

But it's good to freak out a little now and then. Keeps you from going numb.

Plan B went off of the cliff...

meh

Wouldn't the futures crash if there were to be no future?

TPTB are cashing out of the stock market, selling their paper PMs to depress the market, buying physical and heading to their bunkers.

This is not just any ordinary "3rd Friday" and the flash crash coincided directly with Boehner cancelling the vote on the dreaded "Plan B". Not to mention the timing...

Just sayin'

the past 1 and a half weeks they've been saying a fiscal cliff deal is close, but I watched gold DROP LIKE A ROCK! That tells me the gold sellers think the fiscal cliff is coming!


Doom on! STEEP CURVE AHEAD!

The stocks are like roller coasters

THe street just figured out that the fix is in they are out the PTB/Government politically has made up the perfect scenerio to blame the other guy for not reaching a deal..

The Dems will get the Major cut in Defense and the Republicans will get the major cut in medicare all because of the other guy..

Dont look at me it was his fault we could not agree.


Oh well..

Better get the blue ones ready.. one blue one for five green ones

Yep its all about Plan "B"
Congress is about to be eliminated

So what do you make of it saddle?

Saddletramp is one of the only posters here I'd listen to.

If anybody wants to have a reputation like that, you have to earn it with good, well-grounded posts, not the constant 'chicken little' doom posts

Asian markets showing their Christmas spirit. They all turned from green to red!

It's not even close to going under 13,000! Doom off.

Still hopeful for some time soon though..
