I agree. Should be down at least double what it was today.

Fridays, during the summer, are usually low volume. Looked like a lot of spec players getting in during the last hour or so. Big Guys will mull it over during the weekend, realize the Thursday Jobless Claims were also not as good as Thurday's trading might suggest, and we'll see what happens Monday.

Of course, you may be right in that the "fix" is in. However, been a few stories out about this bad Jobs Report going to make it more difficult on the budget negotiations...
