Before the market opened - a day before the one-year anniversary of its record high - Sal Buccellato, a currency trader with Gallant FX, warned that not everyone was going to enjoy the end-of-the-year holidays, but he was more optimistic over the long term. Buccelato - who said he made money during the bloodletting - saw a silver lining even for those who lose their jobs.

There are some benefits to smaller tournament. It's certainly tidier. The opening ceremony in Basel's St. Jakob-Park...
...last time I saw Sydney Pollack he was doing me a gallant favor. He had become, in recent years, my narrator of choice for the documentaries I produce and write. He had done the voice-over for one of them in the summer of 2007. Sometime after Labor Day it became clear to me that I needed him to do a bit of additional taping.
