Q Why does the President think the markets did react so poorly yesterday? It was the first full day of trading after the -- he signed the act, the economic stabilization act, and yet, the confidence is still so low. Why does he think that is?
MS. PERINO: Well, we don't comment on daily market movements. And that's not going to change, even though we've seen that increased volatility. But what I will say is that what you saw over the weekend was the increasing concern around the globe about our global financial system and how it's interconnected, and that the pain is going to be spread outside of the United States. And so I think that could be one of your answers.
