    But wouldn't the year-end S&P be looking forward at 2010 earnings which almost everyone currently projects to be higher than 2009 earnings? It does seem to indicate that today's market should be lower though.

    their projected 2010 earnings were $54/share which mean we are still VERY overvalued if you use their numbers.

    So are you shorting the S&P500 for the entire year?

    Stupidly. Citibank and BOA have been de facto nationalized for months now and the shareholders have been on life support since the fall..if you're long citibank you're already f'd anyway, I don't know what they were possibly thinking was going to happen before. Unless you were under the illusion that the treasury was just going to say "oh no problem, miss your divident payments to us and keep the 80bb?" - this news should not be a surprise to anybody.

    Bought some skf yesterday. I should have just dumped it at the open. Instead of waiting.

    Looks like another round of banking collapse might be coming -- C down 40% today; BAC down 25%...

    SKF closed near the highs of the day today. You could have sold at market close.

    :confused:

    The dollar is kicking ass. Shocking since we are printing money like toilet paper.

    We are mostly borrowing like there is no tomorrow. The whole euro zone is in shambles.

    It's sad that everything is down today, but one stock that has taken a dump for a while is up today - AIG.

    At that price, it is more like an option than a stock.

    One of my bottom feeder limit orders fired today ... VTI @ $36. Time to set the next limit order ... VTI @ $32.

    How low will it go?
