Good morning and welcome back to weight room. The markets are down 1%, back to about the 11,000 level on the DJIA. Recall that I’ve been saying this week that I think we might finally be bottoming somewhere here between DJIA 10800 and 11000. Despite — or indeed partly

Oda Mae Brown: He’s stuck, that’s what it is. He’s in between worlds. You know it happens sometimes that the spirit gets yanked out so fast that the essence still feels it has work to do here. Sam Wheat: Would you stop rambling? Oda Mae Brown: I

She’s got legs, she knows how to use them. She never begs, she knows how to choose them. She’s holdin’ leg wonderin’ how to feel them. Would you get behind them if you could only find them? — ZZ Top There’s some legs to that rally out there.

Another day, another rally. Ha, just kidding. But we are rallied up another 100 points in the DJIA this morning and it’s tried to stick so far. And I do think we’re getting closer to bottoming sooner rather than later. I’ll rephrase — I think this market might
