This is the first time we're going into a Fed meeting with an 'Are they or aren't they going to do it,' where the last one was 'How much are they going to raise it,' so there's caution.

The fact that it wasn't bad news was good news. If it was bad news, they certainly would have sold into it. But investors are nervous here. The money on the sidelines is coming in, but it's coming in slowly.

This is a brand-new market for us.

Things seem to want to quiet down at this point. We have had a heck of a run the past two weeks with very strong gains. It is only to be expected to ease off a little.

This is the first time (in a while) that people aren't sure if they will do anything. The question is has the economy (really) turned. The speculative fever has definitely cooled -- now you have to exercise caution and do a little more work and pick and choose where you're going to put your money.

It was just a nasty day all around. There was no strong leadership.

The buyers are there and the sellers are finished for the year for the most part. Those who have cash sitting on the sidelines are putting it to work.

There's a lot of money to put to work. Buyers are just looking for an excuse to get involved.

How high is the price going to go and when are they going to get that back in check again.
