Going down yet again, the Dow. Why am I not surprised? Been happening every few days of late.

The Dow was down 206 points at 19,971, with 25 of 30 components contributing to losses. The index had been down as much as 220.16 points at its intraday low of 12,956.33, which was the lowest price seen since Aug. 17.

At its intraday low, the Dow had lost 1,241.77 points, or 8.7%, since reaching an all-time high of 14,198.10 in intraday trading on Oct. 11.

Goes up and down like a yo-yo. Not to worry much unless it continues going down. Kindof like cat pee on the bread machine. Some days there is pee, some no pee, and on one fateful day there was not just a little but a lot on everything on the kitchen counter, enough to put the human in a tailspin. So if the Dow takes a massive, really massive dive, it will be like having all your appliances covered with cat pee. And lots of humans will be in a tailspin.

Noticed that the neighbor cat was outside when I was taking out the trash so I grabbed the camera natch. Here he is outside.

Inside, yes he went in the house, checking out the litter pan. He did not go in it.

He next got on their sofa. Other cats cleared off.

Then I found him on the counter. I was amazed that he could get up there as he was still limping.

He wasn’t leaving and I did want to close the door. Amazingly enough, none of the other cats so much as hissed at him. Finally, I asked Bazel to get him out. Bazel then went up to the kitty, said something in kittyspeak, not loud mind you, and the cat walked out. I was amazed. Didn’t stop me from taking pics thou.
