could be a bear trap, page-7

Not unusual for the DOW to drop on a Friday.
And after a good few days of gains some hesitation about the state of the economy was bound to resurface. We will probably see a lot of these up and down days over the coming weeks or perhaps even months but a major slide I don't think will occur. The big players will be more than likey riding on the swings, placing their bets long and short at times, to try and make some money out of what may be a relatively flat period generally. A lot of the action is purely psychological at the moment and people get caught up in the emotion of things. I suggest trying to stay cool at these times and trying to think about things more clearly than just following the herd.
