6. Oh yeah, scary. A bunch of rich people almost lost a ton
I was fretting for my boss for a few moments until it bounced back a bit. No matter what happens, Id give him the shirt off my back to keep him warm.

7. I'm just surprised it took so long for investors to catch on
I've been watching the whole PIIGS crisis unfold for many months now.

If Greece "restructures," expect the rest of them to follow.

If you think today was a wild ride, wait until that happens.

The market is overvalued when you look at traditional P/E ratios. It's the result of too much funny money at the very top chasing too few shares, the classic inflation pattern.

Where it will bottom out is anyone's guess, but my own guess is that the eventual golden medium value of the Dow is between 6500-7500 points.

Eventually the world will go after the rich men who caused this, just the way FDR did in the Depression. This is what it takes to make it popular to do so.
