Copy/paste from right now, this second:


Dow16,585.81-294.55-1.74%
Nasdaq4,371.06-91.84-2.06%
S&P 5001,932.54-37.53-1.91%
10 Year Yield2.56%+0.00--
Gold$1,283.10+1.80+0.14%
Oil$98.02-2.25-2.24%


But will it hold?  Default in Argentina was the alleged trigger.  Me thinks it's just more controlled demolition, or the numbers would be more extreme, but what do I know?!

It's a little later, and here's the New World markets as of now:
