The 1000 point drop in the Dow

So, unfortunately I was stopped out of my positions in Expedia and Mattel when the Dow mysteriously dropped 9% and then jumped back up in the span of 20 minutes last Thursday.  Here's the USA Today's take on that event - http://www.usatoday.com/money/markets/2010-05-10-mart10_ST_N.htm .

I'm not going to let this keep me from trading though.  I'll wait for another confirmed uptrend and get back in the game.  Have a good one and good luck.
