Big fall

As usual, when things are not rosy, mine is even worse because a lot of my stocks are speculative resource stocks.  However, it is puzzling why ASX fell while Hang Seng and Nikkei rose.  Chinese manufacturing feature shows improvement.  So it looks like ASX will have to wait till tomorrow...  provided the DJ does not fall.

Sandy as a storm should improve US economy.  People have to work harder to reconstruct damaged property and infrastructure.
