re: "We'll see how UAL and KGC do today."
Neither stock is doing as well as I'd have hoped. Both are up, but I'm not going to rush to sell them either.
I think that perhaps with all of the overnight negativity, many investors are not yet changing their minds about getting out. It could take a few days for most of the market to return to where it was on Wednesday night.
And that assumes that there's no more bad news.
I'll keep my fingers crossed. Looks like I'll be hanging on to my recent purchases for at least a few days.
The DOW was up nearly 200 earlier today. It is now up by just 18.
The Nasdaq, S&P 500 and gold are all DOWN.
