the dow futures were showing a 200 point gain before opening this morning and the day ended up with a 680 point loss, leaving the dow jones at the same level it was back in early 1998...the media blamed general motor's credit rating, but i think the end of the ban on short selling had a significant influence too...i wonder if the us government will do another auto giant bailout like it did back in the late 70's...GM and ford are too big to fail!
