This morning I experienced a weird premonition that the DOW would close below 10,000. Last night I was reading posts by bears and bulls on selected bear fora and noticed MOST of the bears were not convinced that the DOW would close below 10,000. I thought to myself that they weren't aware of the historic potential downturn today.

I told people at the factory; some were interested, others were worn out by my constant crash warnings, but at the final tally, they were ALL surprised at the low DOW close.

Were you?

Don't worry about Flint. He's prepared. Worry about the mocking idiots who will be banging on your front door for free handouts...
