Will Dow (DJIA) close up the week Oct 20-24?

Settled as No

DJIA closed 72.24 points lower at 8378.95 compared to last Friday's close of 8451.19

Background:

Every week we keep on hoping the markets will go up and up, sadly though each week it starts off looking good but the markets slowly are dragged into the abyss of the financial crisis. Last week world leaders met to decide on "something" and if there's any sign that things aren't getting better it's probably the fact that world leaders are again meeting for crisis talks this weekend.

No one can predict what will happen here, although our Hubdub users have gotten pretty good at it recently.

Last Friday the DJIA closed at 8852.22 up about 400 points from the previous Friday's close of 8451.19. So will the DJIA close up from that?
