Market Meltdown, Nasdaq Opens Negative 5%
Posted on Tue 22nd Jan, 2008 09:36:55 AM
No other way to describe it, the market is in a complete meltdown. I am looking at the DOW down 3.74%, the S&P down 3.27%, and the NASDAQ down 5% even as of 9:33 AM EST.
For those who did not see this huge gap down open coming, you needed to look no further then overseas to the asian markets which simply got POUNDED the last two sessions.

Be prepared for a bloodbath today and possibly for Bernanke to hold an emergency meeting and cut rates .5. (EDIT: Rates have been cut by .75!)
