For all of you bailout lovers out there.

Your money is all gone. Now they are going to take the rest of it in the market. Have a nice day...

Dow off 350 in the first 45 mins. My guess, probably over 1000 over the course of the day.

Nothing says confidence like needing a $700B leg to stand on.

Market Watch headline: "Careening off a cliff".

That was BEFORE the Dow was down nearly 500 points.

Makes me VERY NERVOUS to go to work today...

It'll close at 10% down, but they can't keep up with the losses. I'm placing my bet on 1200 now.

Maybe after today, the public will figure out that the folks running our country (You know, the ones you just gave $700 Billion to on Friday) don't have a clue!

Dropped 800 and then gained 400 for a total loss of 400...

But the S&P is always more important, IMHO.
