The morning of the crash of 11/11/11.

Voltaire wakes up early to feed his black crows while stockplaya has his fingers crossed that the recent sovereign debt default will be a positive for the stock market.

Martis, finally making a correct call after many attempts is prepared for this crash better than most.

Non scented candles have been placed all around his home (scented candles give him headaches). Canned food has been stored to last him 10 years, the time he expects the DOW to break 11,500 again. Mrs. Martis, although supportive finds all this behaviour somewhat compulsive. But the day has come and the man of the moment will bask in the glory of financial doom.

BiggDaddy, the biggest daddy of all, although well deserved of a break from kicking off the daily thread, is smiling and happy to compose another masterpiece, his best yet. Some humour, some action and plenty of defamation. It's no wonder why we love him so much.

Good luck to all
