Dow down

Stocks ended trading down Tuesday as investors looked for fresh signals about Wall Street’s direction a day after the market’s biggest advance in five months.

Some pullback was expected after the Dow Jones industrial average surged 498 points on Monday in a giddy response to the government’s plan to help banks dispose of bad loans.

Traders said the market was short on fresh fuel to extend the rally that has propelled stocks up about 20 percent in 10 days.

I didn't lose a nickel - I got out when the DOW hit 14,000.

I didn't exit, I just moved my money around. I guess I was reading and listening to many "rightwingnuts", and their conspiracy theories.

I'm up about the same percentage as Reader is down (35%), over 2008! Anybody interested in borrowing the books?

I'm just glad that I didn't listen to all those that were so "positive", it would have lead to a false sense of security.

I guess those are the "positives" of being so "negative"
