What was supposed to be a quiet holiday shortened session was anything but as the Dow lost 154 on very light volume. Advance/declines were 5 to 1 negative. The country of Dubai is threatening to default on its debt. World markets had a tough day on Thanksgiving and the US market mirrored that today. I don't know what it means for Monday but the summation index should be heading south after today. I'll be checking the charts over the weekend. Gold took a hit as well, down $18. The XAU fell 7 1/4. ABX and NEM dropped 1 1/2, while GG lost 2. Volume was light. All were off even more early. The dollar was higher but not as much as you'd expect with a flight to safety move. I'll need to look at these charts over the weekend as well. Mentally I'm feeling OK, trying to get some rest. But obviously with the recent Dubai development, there is much to do. Is this an opportunity to get long or is this the beginning of a long awaited sustained move to the downside? That's the question of the moment. I'm still going to relax for a couple of days and then see what happens Sunday night when the world starts up again. This is probably some type of opportunity. Taking advantage of it is the trick.

MARKET TODAY
Key benchmark indices are likely to open higher in the morning session amid easing concerns about Dubai's financial crisis. However, Asian markets are also witnessing strength in early trade which sets the mood for a higher opening. Meanwhile, the UAE central bank eased credit for lenders and said it stands behind the country’s local and foreign banks as they face losses from Dubai World’s possible default. Banks and real estate stocks, which were volatile on Friday, will be watched today.
According to data released by the NSE, in the last session, FIIs were net sellers of index futures to the tune of Rs 769.76 crore, while they bought index options worth Rs 433.13 crore. They were net buyers of stock futures to the tune of Rs 165.77 crore and bought stock options worth Rs 13.22 crore.
