re: DOW tomorrow: over/under 500 point loss?

I am looking out my window right now, and currently there are no clouds. I think if I see some clouds later on, it might rain tonight, and probably tomorrow. If I don't see any, it probably won't. But it might.

My point was that if the market here in the US closed up this afternoon then that would be much less likely to fuel more selling in the overseas markets tonight. If the market were to close around the same point, it's a crap shoot. If the market were to close down, it could well cause more selling in the overseas markets.

Waking up to an even more down market tomorrow would scare even more folks than we have seen already, thus driving the market down again. Waking up to a rally that continued into the overseas markets would be a nice plus and spur more buying (generally speaking).

Right now the Dow is -100+ off it's opening and -400+ off today's high (dropping so fast I can't keep up with it and ever get this posted). If it keeps dropping like this do you think it's likely to cause any other reaction overseas after we close for the trading day?

I'm not picking on you, people just keep posting like 24-48 hour market predictions and its retarded.
