	VERY INTERESTING...in that for the weeks prior to the last 6,
Thursday's had been big down days.  It was like the Margin Calls were
all settled on Thursday.
	Maybe the same is true now.  Only now the Margin Calls are on The Shorts,
and not The Longs.
	Let's say a Margin Clerk finds under margined position on Monday
	Client is Notified on Tuesday
	He has until Wednesday to satisfy the claim.
	When he fails by Noon on Thursday to meet the Call, the offsetting
		position is taken for him by the Margin Dept.  In this case,
	Buy to Cover.

So who needs any form of analysis.  Just buy the opening Thursday and
