The market is both a place to invest and a casino. Today is just one of those days where the investors and the casino players come in closer proximity to one another. Ask yourself this, if you are an investor and you go out to dinner at a restaurant with a group of investors that happens to be within a casino, then when you hear the tunes from the poker machines and the coins hitting the metal tray do you rush over with cash in hand to join in, do you sell your investments to join in, how many at the table do? If you really can't handle it then don't eat at the casino and you'll never have to be tempted. How many people have you heard about who get rich from the casino, it's no different for those who treat the market like a casino. In the short term some win big, in the long term sone do ok. Most lose their shirt.
