When you're picked 30th and you've done this, there's something special. No question, everything's changed here, that was the biggest, single thing that had to happen in a short period of time.

The interesting thing is that they did this on a day when economic information came out that was decidedly weaker than expected. It blunted what could have been a pretty bloody response.

I think that overall we are in for a pretty good earnings quarter, and that may be a positive for stocks.
