If by cash, you mean dollars, you may want to reconsider.

Not cash, actually.

Into a precious metal.

I’m in to FAZ, SRS and TZA. Hopefully, they’ll finally go up. Also looking for work due to liberal enemies.

Did they vote on this thing yet? I can’t find anything with the final vote count.

Copper, lead, and sharpened steel are today's can't-lose investment options.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

I think today’s events were pretty much already factored into the price of stocks as they were pretty much expected.

Of course, you’re right in the longer term, obamacare will be a real pill for the market and the economy.

Yeah? Which bill? The reconciliation fantasy bill that will never be anything or the senate bill that will actually become law?

I’ve been overweight on cash for the last year assuming that Obama and the Dems are going to ruin the economy. The market has miraculously levitated so I’ve lost some earnings but at least can sleep at night. Too many things could go wrong with this crew driving the ship, and one of these mornings we’re going to wake up and find ourselves hard on the rocks.

There are some stalwart dividend payers out there worth a look. Good port in a storm.

Passage was already baked into the cake...

Buy as the emotional crowd sell...

The real impact of this bill is years away and (hopefully) will be greatly reduced before it means anything!

The rats will try to buy off the voters with extension of many of the Bush taxcuts before they expire on 12/31/2010!

I moved everything we had (401k’s etc)out of the market on Dec. 30th and into precious metals and bonds. The economy will continue to suck this year because there isn't a policy coming from this clown administration that is anything but anti growth. The market will be down 10 percent by July in spite of the Fed's meddling and propping it up.
