Monday is seeing a big upturn in the dow jones and the other components as the news of the war is very good today and investors see that war may end very soon.At the same time oil is going down for the same reason.

The Dow Jones Industrial average was sure having a good day during the early afternoon. I saw it up 170 points at 2:05 PM EDT.

It looks like an interesting day with days sharp rise during the first half of the day and as Luis said that news from Iraq last night, we may see quite a rise tomorrow.
