Dow Jones Open 11/18/08 - Stock Market Open

The Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJIA ) and US Stock Markets have open flat this morning, 11/18/08, after the futures were down big early in pre market trading. Hewlett Packard ( HPQ ) came out with earnings that were ahead of expectations and also raised guidance for 2009 but as soon as Henry Paulson and Ben Bernake started speaking the gains that we had were quickly taken away. It seems as though every time our Government speaks while the stock market is open, we fall. Anyway, for the Dow Jones, look at my DJIA Chart as these are the low points I am watching closely. The Dow Jones is now up 60....very volatile trading going on as usual!

Today's Biggest Gainers - 11/18/08 - There aren't many!

Art Cashin seems to think we may retest the lows....he spoke on CNBC this morning.
