Looks as though it's headed there. Will be interesting to see what happens on Thursday when the short-selling ban expires...

It would be kinda cool to something like -1023.32
That would be like scoring 100 pts in football.

Isn't the short selling ban only on financial stocks?

What's the difference. The market has sucked cock for awhile, if anyone is surprised at this point - they need to watch the news more than once a year.

No. A ton of companies signed up for the ban, somehow. Companies like IBM and Ryder trucks are on the ban list...

Thought only naked short selling is banned, normal short selling still ok. As for the market going down yea its bad, but unless your planned to take money out in the near future it really don't matter. In 5-10 years you wont even remember to days big drop.

Wow it took a brain scientist no doubt to figure this one out. lol.

No. All short selling is banned on those companies until Thursday. And today may be talked about for quite some time as it's the first trading day following the bailout.

Yep, a bit heavy on the sell orders to finish up the day it looks. 500-550 i would guess by closing. No big deal...Raise cash and let this all wash out for a month or two.

AIG is a strong buy, I do not tout stocks much but you will get a 3 point return in one year.
Market made a nice comeback, these traders are playing games.
