Shutdown Shopping?

[hendi_alex]

I'm not so sure about the plunging characterization. Looks like a typical down day to me, with the indices down about 0.9%. I'm doing a little better at down around 0.4%, probably because of my numerous short calls that are still in the money.

I think the market is pretty numb to this kind of budget, debt ceiling, Obama care bickering, so am not expecting any major move in the indices. My initial buy points for any stocks of interest remain unchanged.
