 Okay folks, this is Larry Pesavento setting in for Tom O'Brien today giving you an afternoon update here these last three minutes of the day. Well towards the end of the day here we have sold off rapidly here in the Dow Jones down about over 200 points right now, S&P down about 10 and the NASDAQ actually just went negative just a few minutes ago and also the Russell just went negative so it's going to be a negative close here on the market today even though the bond market and treasury note markets held up relatively well today the US dollar was basically a slightly higher but not by very much but that pushed gold up $30 at one point during the day our low had been 1810 and we got all the way up to 1838 and a half and silver moved 60 cents to the upside so some type of a at least a small bottom has been made here in both gold and silver from looking at the technical charts the other markets of course were the grain markets which are under a great deal of pressure soybeans down 25 to 30 cents meal down 1200 bucks and even the soybean oil which been holding up relatively well was down only marginally corn was down and wheat continues to make new lows folks it's hard to believe I know most of you folks are not stock traders but just three months ago wheat was making a new high at $13 a bushel that would put bread around $5 a loaf and now it's one half that price we've gone from 15 down to 7 we're almost ready to break $6 and 99 cent wheat to the downside folks that's a 50% retracement in three months in an area of like Crimea which is the bread basket of the Ukraine that it's in the midst of a you know a winter getting ready for their spring planning and yet they are planning less than they did last year and that should mean prices should go up but in fact prices are going down so supply demand works some of the time but it doesn't work all of the time that's why our goal here is to trade what you see not what you think because what you see is with prices are going up there's more buyers if prices are going down there's more sellers that's all you really need to know the rest of it is cannon fodder folks so keep that in mind live every day in an attitude of gratitude and may God bless and we'll see all tomorrow on the sunny side of Wall Street
