What a fucking mess...

Not sure what to think when it takes us until 3:40 to hit a billion shares traded on the NYSE smack dab in the middle of earnings season... an anticipated earnings season at that.

Are people throwing in the towel on investing in the stock market? Where is the money flowing? Not into stocks, despite the recent runs in the indexes.

It's waaay too fucking quiet out there and it's freaking me out.

I got my clock cleaned. I won't have a daily post up tonight, but I can break it down for you in this way... "new DT" lost $500 and then the "old DT" took over and lost the rest. $1300 courtesy of CLF.

Needless to say, "old DT" is not allowed in my office anymore.

GOOG looks like it blew out earnings... over $500 afterhours... I guess the rally continues.

Props to Sanglucci, for keeping the VO respectable. He "juiced" the ag stocks, I believe.
