1. Wow, a sea of red
The word on the price of a barrel of gas is pretty grim. It might hit $45/barrel. Get ready for the red ink in the morning when the market opens.

2. Yikes!
Expect a whistling by the graveyard act tomorrow.

You know, "Readjustment" and all sorts of other nonsense words to put the tanking in the best possible light.

5. Looks like foreign money manipulation
Edited on Mon May-17-04 12:37 AM by Robbien

edit: As foreign institutional investors, who remained extremely bullish about the prospects of the privatisation or divestment of government holdings in key public sector undertakings right through the financial year 2003-2004, turned apprehensive following the defeat of the NDA front in the Lok Sabha elections, the market suffered two of its worst setbacks in recent years last week.


South Korea is also having some serious downturns. It is now 5% down, a half hour ago is was down 3.5%.
