Chuck my friend... right now we are in a BEAR market. We're seeing wild fluctuations because bargain hunters are buying when they think they've found a bottom... which gives us those +900 point days... and then they sell when they've hit the profit margin they're looking for which give us these -500 days.

You can expect this kind of volatility to continue for a while... and it would STILL be happening if McCain won too.
