It's The Economy Stupid: Market Close, NASDAQ Goes Down!!!

After the NASDAQ computers crashed for 3 hours, they finally managed to get the hamsters  back in their cages and the little buggers started their wheels turning at about 2:20 PM Central.  And no one from the NASDAQ is talking.

 

The market was up.  It was a CRAZY day!
