Trading ideas:
1. Crude Oil should spike up? No infact it decline but is due to Energy price has hit the peak and now at US$85.80.. Continue to sell in near term may reach US$80.00 level.
2. The most damage area is expected to be around lower Manhattan - where the Wall Street is!
The damage as good as 911 or worst. Expecting a knee jerk reaction when market re-open tonight, plus Non-Farm-Payroll on coming Friday, plus 6-Nov-12 (next Tuesday) President Election Day, plus Dow Jones Daily chart showing weakness.
