Up 310 for a few moments...settling back down to +200. I wonder if the sell-off into the rally will crush it in the final minutes.

That's a 1000+ pt rally today. If the PPT wants to do this, they could at least be stealthy about it.

I wonder if Paulson blew the whole $700,000,000 in the stock market today. That was some crazy manipulation. It's already sinking back into the red though.

It's your 700B at work. It's the Treasury. Bush announced they would do it during his speech this morning.

I'm impressed. I didn't think they would make it to the close. Smallpox girl is right, you just saw them spend hundreds of billions of dollars in 45 minutes. Not all of it, but a good chunk. At least they bought stuff with it and didn't just give it away.

How many of these gut-wrenching weeks can we take? I'm worn out.
