As we said earlier, things going to get random. At 1035 am, NASDAQ up 48…at noon, only up 15. But don’t blink. We do not like micromanaging. We just wanted to point out what typically happens after a day like yesterday. Take your time here.

Remember what we said. Things will get random after a day like yesterday. Big leaders are indeed bouncing after one big ugly day. This is random but somewhat normal. We will know a lot more as to how and where they bounce…which we won’t know for a bit. One casualty today is Brazil  with reports…
