ditto view on zerohedge - so many good articles on the site I read something of interest everyday. Re: S&P 500 for some time I've been looking at 1850-1900 as a level of support from the February lows. I imagine that will be a stopping off point on the way down to your target. I've had put options that just expired worthless at that level & more in the Dec 16 expiry. With the gathering storm clouds and the election I'd be amazed if it doesn't tumble before then.
