Certainly a relief rally once the bailout passes; but these are getting shorter and shorter. After a year of watching absolutely gonzo rocket blasts up in the market any time the piddliest little piece of We-Can-Maybe-Spin-It-A... news (Dow up 150, 200 intraday because McDonalds raised its dividend, anyone?) it's actually kind of a relief to see some actual skepticism burrowing its way into the market. It gives me hope the market can get back to health, eventually.
