PREM started in the -5's. Continued to hit at 9:31, skipped a few mins, and hit again at 9:34, 9:35 and hit sell levels once again at 10:00, and just missed at 10:03. The open was good for about 40 points down on the Dow, and 10am about 20 points. TICK took until 9:38 to find it's way above 0. LOD was just before 10am at a decent -500, and has been up trending since. And at 9:56 we get our first 1000+ TICK of the day.
Sheesh, we can't even get MSFT under 26, and INTC wants no part of 18. IBM is almost green again. Even SEBL is rocking and rolling. Must be those rumors again.
OT When listening to the radio, road noise is the least of the problems. They massage the audio so much, even in a quiet house it's enough to make a conissuer cringe. I use to 10 yrs ago be able to within seconds tell about 10 radio stations apart, even they were all playing the same song, just by how they sounded. I especially liked to laugh at the one station that people would comment, it sounds better than my CD's. Yeah right. They were adding "sparkle" to it, which on casual listening was all right, but critical listening had you wanting to rip your ears out after about 10 mins. Alas playing stocks at home, I don't get the road time in I use to, so rarely listen to music on the radio any more. Besides what happened to the music on the radio. These days you listen for 4-5 hours, and maybe there were 2-3 good songs. I ain't going to waste my time.
