The DJIA Index Down over 900 Points With An Hour Left In the Trading Session.

If it wss down 600 points at this time in the trading session and not down over 900 points you might expect to see a slight rebound in the final half hour of today's trading. That doesn't seem to be the case. The over 900 point drop in the indexes adds an element of scare. Now Caterpillar which is down over $19.00 on the day. Would this be a good time to catch it for a rebound? Is has being a particularly strong stock as of late. Might it be one of the first stocks to rebound after today's train wreck of a day?

Both of these articles were from Nov26th and 27th. Why the time delay in having this stock pop is something I don't understand. Back on Sept 5th and Oct 27th I did I blogs on this stock. Go back and read them. Both times I ended these blogs by saying "Do your homework on this one". Read my blogs about playing options on $5.00 stocks. Here now is how Vinfast closed the day. Now look at how the five series of Calls closed on December 5th (with only one trading day of life left in them). Profits on options on five dollar stocks come and go quickly.
