An Idea For Market Watching.
Can we have just one daily thread in GD for market tracking? The new-thread-a-minute thing makes for difficult reading?

2. No, Not That One.
I'm talking strictly about discussing ongoing market levels without the associated news story's.

3. If you put the headline *******LIKE THIS******
and call it official, it may catch on.

I tried it last week, and a couple of people participated. there's nothing more instantly outdated than a thread titled "Market Down 500 Points!!!11"

6. Because,Yesterday...
GD was inundated with new threads that saying "Dow down 500" "Dow down 600" "Dow Down 450" "OMG the Dow is down 500". They are instantly obsolete.
