Found this comment in a blog, and love it:

"Would someone please tell me why those grinning idiots are standing on the NYSE balcony applauding at the closing bell when the market just dropped 427 points?"

Hehehehe

Damn good question. Maybe they just discovered that their company is in the list of bailouts. :]

It's a custom ... hopefully they'll think about it more the next time (for instance, when the Dow hits 6,200 in a couple of months time)! :imho:

No jobs = no consumer spending = no profits = Low(er) stock prices :gl:

they're just so shock, they don't know what to do, to pretend they fake out an applause.

They were applauding because the trading day was finally coming to an end.

The NASDAQ is down 35% since the election. I better put my "change" in my piggy bank. :wave:
