1. Speculators selling.
Oil stocks and defense contractor stocks are up to counterbalance the drops.

2. Really?
That isn't even a blip. Worse drops occur when someone yells happy birthday on the trading floor.
Wake me when it gets to 10%. The market isn't behaving rationally. It's freebasing 8 balls on the trading floor. 1/2% isn't even a sniffle, let alone a cold. |

6. I am sorry for folks with 401Ks that are going to get hit-
I really am- But, it's coming soon. This "market" is not normal, nor sustainable.

9. Surprising it's only down by 200 or so. Dow could have easily dropped 1000 or more
on any concerning news, simply because it has moved so high lately.
Day, week, etc., aren't over, but doesn't appear the drone strike has really shaken markets. |

10. They're holding it up
Should have dropped a ton by now. The top 1/10% can now control the market imo. Never have so few controlled so much.

12. Curious to hear the thoughts of those on DU that said they were getting out after the 2016 election
Because it was going to plummet immediately. Haven't heard much about it from them for quite awhile.

13. If I had a nickel for every time I've pointed out that DU is a terrible place to get market advice
I would be able to buy more stock.

14. Never pay attention to daily fluctuations
I made a mint investing big after 9/11 and after the 2008 housing bubble.
