This was a weak week, maybe it wasn't so bad being the first week in 3 when the Dow didn't decline more than 500 (due to a shortened time frame?).

Asian markets start 2nd half of 2008 lower
Asian markets pulled back in the 2nd half of 2008 (Tues). Shanghai, Taiwan, Korean & Australia markets are down a little while Tokyo is higher.
