We seemed to get a short upward thrust in most of the major markets which
failed. I have all of the major averages except the DJU hitting their targets,
so I suspect that we're going to correct the whole rally since July. My
projections all suggest that the correction will be no more than 7%. Question of
the hour is whether we're going to get a decent rally before this thing finally
tanks. DJU is suggesting that we may see some trouble in bonds.
