Well my new pair of sticky pants kept me glued to the seat but I got car sick.
Re: some random thoughts
On the bright side, those futures look like just normal sell off days and not triple panic like we had friday. The only two things weighing the market are the interest rates going up because of the bright business future on the way and the sad fact that we have been due for a correction for a long time. So bottom line is there's really nothing crazy that is driving this decline except fear it seems to me. coolhand says the dumb money says sell, the smart money says "who knows" (neutral). I think we drop another couple days then rocket back up to recover about half of fridays losses and then back to bull. So, that's why I'm probably going to sit out after today and preserve whats left of my christmas money. I'm retired and about half invested and a little risk averse.

Congratulations to the "G" funders for getting to the top of the AutoTracker. No really I mean it. Great opportunity to stay at the top.

I haven't had a two day loss like this since June 24th and 27th 2016. That was a Friday and Monday also.
Things did turn around and I finished July with a 5.40% from a -5.55% on 6/27/16.
So maybe there is hope in the near future.

Re: nasa1974's Account Talk
Since January 26th I have gone from a 5.34% to a -2.22%. Sounds like I will go lower today. Let's hope we can recover in a couple of months and not take a whole year.

"One day before SpaceX's new Falcon Heavy rocket is slated to blast off on its maiden voyage with a Tesla Roadster on board, Elon Musk has revealed that the electric sports car may have a passenger.
In a series of Instagram photos captioned "Starman in a Red Roadster," Musk debuted a dummy wearing an official SpaceX spacesuit, buckled up and apparently ready to blast off on a mission to Mars."
