To be honest Ms Trader I will check the cnbc futures quite often during the day, but obviously they are much more reliable the closer you are to the US trading open. It is rare that I have observed in these rough times that the futures will be anywhere near the mark. Unfortunately that leaves me to my own devices, getting my own feel for the market sentiment based on the articles I read and places like these forums. ADY is in the green at the moment on a red day. I don't expect that ADY is greatly affected by the happenings of the DJIA tomorrow. We all know the risk of holding a miner that doesn't mine, but the news of late is quite positive. If its a great green day, aren't there far more exciting shares to buy? Perhaps better for ADY for a red DOW. Can't say the same for the rest of my holdings. ;)
