For over a year, some of my foreign friends have been exiting this market.
The snowball is rolling down the hill now and I doubt if it will end until
we get below 7,000 or worse on the Dow.

Looks like S&P broke the neckline convincingly today.   I was thinking there
might be a counter trend rally but I guess not.  The foreigners are really
getting squeezed.  Not only are their investments being hammered but the
dollar is dropping in value.  Double whammy!

Dear Lois,

Thank you for contacting S&P Index Services.   The bottom up values
start with
the individual estimates on each of
the S&P 500, and then calculate the index values upwards.  The top down
is done
by our chief economist who makes
changes to the entire value based on economic data and projections.  We
hope
this information is helpful.

best regards,
