a question: since HK and Shanghai markets are closed today, assuming DJ is neutral tonight, would HK and Shanghai try to catch 'down' (normally I would use catch-up :) )  on DJ's Friday meltdown and causing another round of bloodshed on STI tomorow ? Then we kenna double whammy?

 

What's your view?

today papers both stressed that soaring CO will expedite global recession and most hit one will be stock market.

out look is still very very bearish, if OPEC still don't respond to G8 conference in Japan yesterday.

Hypothesis: this global plunge is really initiated by bond insurer downgrades - leading to a significant unwinding of derivatives and flight from US$ assets. Since short indicators corrected for US based issues indicate a net neutral basis currently - selling could be far from bottom - but because of the potential wider systemic risk a FED put may be in place.

 

evidence of the initiating event.

corrected "short" indicator is actually @ neutral despite plunge.

I am really NOT looking forward to market open today.

My portfolio has already suffered badly. Don't want another heart attack today.
