WEN: "Violation of SP500 1325 on a closing basis means redux of 1270 low." SP500 support holding at 1325, NDX at 1775.

Overnight, Nikkei -1.4%; Hang Seng -3.64%; FTSE -1.32%. In the 8K filed today, AIG's losses net of cash flow diversion features,

stood at $5.2 billion as of Nov. 30 versus just $352 million at the end of September. We expect more "surprises" to come,

especially from Deutsche, Wells Fargo & WaMu. Often wrong, but never in doubt, this is the Nattering Naybob and you're not.
