Marketwatch presents the Jack Daniels Countdown to the Close

With the Dow Jones Industrial Average set to close down at least 600 points, MarketWatch is opting for some gallows humor.

The Countdown to the close banner at the top of the screen is sponsored by "Jack Daniels: Best Enjoyed Responsibly."

Is this an innocent mistake, or are the fine people at MarketWatch indulging in irony? We may never know.
