Till it whittles down? If it loses 120+ points today that will be 10-20% of that gain in just two trading days. The DOW has never gained 2000 points since Trump was selected,it was 1791 at it's max. Now you can shave a couple hundred points of that--that's about 15% in two days. It's down 281 points since last Thursday.

When the SMART money realizes this fake ass rally is over (which I think they have) they'll head for the door toot sweet. The DOW does NOT rise on news that an incoming Pres is going to tax the hell out of companies bringing goods in. Fact is the DOW TANKED the day after he was elected then strangely started a climb. Yeah...after what,son in law ran over to Wall st to let them quietly know that tariff was all BS??

Down 130 points today right now.
