Something big must have just happened. The bottom just fell out of the market.
Edit: Ah, the Fed decided not to lower interest rates.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891Comment

My company's stock is up significantly today. Huzzah for that. The rest... eek. AIG down some more. Failure would be ugly, I imagine.

Luckily I'm still in the early phase of buying. I don't mind my bonds' losses of the past weeks as long as all the stocks go up again, at some point. Better keep them low for some years whilst I buy and go up really strong in 40 years, yes please

Based on your location, the business you're in, and your posts on its stock prices the last couple of days, I suspect we may have the same employer.Originally posted by Arrian

I lump the Bloomberg report in with the earlier CNBC report.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat.

Bloomberg is now reporting the Fed is considering helping AIG after all."I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration." - Hillary Clinton, 2003Comment
