Well, when I said movie rentals, I didn't mean movie rental stores, per se. I meant places that rent movies, which can include NetFlix or even Movies on Demand offered by cable companies.

This blog is really nice and informative. We are pleased to know this blog is really helping people and it’s our pleasure to post informative content on this useful blog created by webmaster. Here’s our market view on American stock market for 16th October, 2008 Stocks sold off sharply yesterday and the major averages have given back more than two thirds of the advance from last Friday's lows to Tuesday's highs. The session got off to a bad start as investors began to react again to economic news: specifically, pre opening, the September retail sales and October Empire Manufacturing index were disappointing and stock futures sold off. Pressure on the market came throughout the session on light volume in what we think was a classic buyers' strike after the significant volatility the past few sessions. Many market participants were just content to stand aside and let the dust settle. Adding to the selling pressure was further second guessing of the government's rescue plan that we spoke of Tuesday carrying into yesterday's session. The CBOE Volatility Index, the VIX, rose more than 14 points to 69.25, just shy of its record close reached last Friday at 70. The CBOE NASDAQ 100 indicator reached a new new record close at 72.93. The number of bulls in the Investors' Intelligence survey fell to another multi-year low at 22.4%. The internals of the market were overwhelmingly negative: NYSE issues 8/1 negative and 97% of the volume to the downside. NASDAQ issues were 6/1 negative and 98% of the volume was to the downside. Based on the extreme fear and dramatic sell-off on big volume last Friday, we believe the market has probably seen its lows for this bear market but a full retest is underway. Today - Worldwide markets were down overnight and U.S. stock futures are signaling flat to lower opening. Today will be a big test for the market. ThePowerStocks.com Team

This blog is really nice and informative. We are pleased to know this blog is really helping people and it’s our pleasure to post informative content on this useful blog created by webmaster. Here’s our market view on American stock market for 17th October, 2008
The major stock averages had another dramatic day of swings yesterday, the Dow reversing from down 380 in the morning to close up 401 points. The averages finished just shy of their highs of the session and the NASDAQ Composite led the way.
Stocks briefly rose at the opening, then reversed lower as a plunge in the October Philly Fed index (reported -37.5 v. estimated -10) and disappointing reading on September industrial production (reported -2.8% v. estimated -0.8%) weighed heavily. Follow-through selling from Wednesday was also a likely factor adding to the pressure on stocks.
The measures of fear again reached record levels in the morning plunge. The CBOE Volatility Index, the VIX, and the CBOE NASDAQ 100 volatility indicator both rose to new intraday all-time highs of 81.17 and 84.62, respectively. Stocks steadily slid to their late morning lows. At that point, the DJIA was down 380 and the NASDAQ 62 point and the internals of the market were overwhelmingly negative for both the NYSE and NASDAQ.
From the lows, the Dow rallied more than 500 points in an hour, gave back 200 points from their early afternoon peaks and settled into narrow ranges. A late acceleration sparked another 500-point rally up to the close. With the stock market successfully holding onto to their gains, the VIX and NASDAQ Volatility indexes eased back into their closes. The broad market finished solidly positive. Volume picked up substantially from the previous day's low levels.
Today - Volatility will also rise as a significant amount of options expire in a triple-witching session. The opening looks lower.

Part of every business plan should be marketing. In a down economy, never cut marketing. Your competitors will, because that is the first instinct, but history shows that those companies who do not cut marketing, continue to grow. Remember, over 92% of Americans are still employed and are still consumers. Matson
