I don't know why you're all so peppy at this.

This affects everyone.

If you smile and joke about a major crisis it makes it easier to deal with?

This has become a global crisis with no comparison. I saw a guy on CNN today who was in Kenya, where they already felt the crisis because of less people going on a safari. Shocked

Nowadays, a country has to be extremely isolated with no international connections whatsoever to not feel this crisis. It's really bad. Sad

I'm hearing there may be a "bank holiday" in the next few months.

1 dollar is now worth under 100 Yen. 98.805 to be exact.

Today's Stats.

Dow           8,579.19   -678.91   -7.33%
Nasdaq   1,645.12   -95.21   -5.47%
S&P 500   909.92   -75.02   -7.62%

Ironically, today marks the 1 year anniversary or the Dow and S&P hitting all-time record values (14,164.53 and 1,565.15 respectively) on Oct 9, 2007. The Dow and S&P are down (from that 1 year ago mark) 39.4% and 41.9%.

Let us see what the end of this crazy week will bring us tomorrow. Perhaps the largest economic crash? Maybe a 3000 point rebound rally (fat chance... Roll Eyes ). Who knows?

I'm concerned about FOREX mainly.

I like international travel, I'm sure at least a few others echo my interests.

Lower dollar [note, I live in NZ], bad for me.

Since today's Friday, I'm guessing we'll see some a lot of dropping during the day, but will rally at the end to end to finish less than 100 points down.

Anyone else have predictions for today?
