Qhat’s the easiest DOW/S&P graphing website to use?

INDU stock charts is poor. Poor displays. Poor defaults.

I understand....but over time I’ve learned that my gut isn’t as smart as my brain.

Yahoo is still one of the best for finance IMHO, though for email I prefer Google.

The thing that should pop is GOVERNMENT SPENDING!

Not going to happen.

In the end, most of America, those with jobs left, will be working just to pay the debt forced upon us, and for millions of state and federal government retirement pensions.

And it’s not just “people” who want to make $249,000 a year and no more; it’s “wives and husbands” who each want to make no more than $124,000 a year.

In our larger, more expensive cities, two professionals have to work pretty hard to NOT make 250k.

“BBC gets wedged in there between ABC and CNN.”

I don’t think it works, but you can have it anyway you want.

I understand also-

The hardest thing for me to remember, is that ultimately we are not in charge. We sometimes deceive ourselves into thinking we are.

October 9, 2007 14164   New all time high on the Dow
July 2, 2008 11215   Dow closes more than 20% below its Oct. 2007 high - bear market
February 27, 2009 7062   Dow closes at post 1997 low - more than 50% below its Oct. 2007 high.
March 5th, 2009

DOW closes at 6394.44

The market continued to gain after the democrats got control of congress in Jan 2007.

It took them until almost the end of 2007 to start the downwards spiral.

Obama "inherited" the stock market decline and housing bust from Pelosi, Reid, Frank and Co.

This is organized crime at work in the Obama administration.
We are all screwed.

I hope you’re right. My worst fear is that some idiot wastes the Marxist idiot and makes a martyr of him. Keep in mind that it won’t necessarily be some crazed invester or right wing nut. The assassin could be one of his own left wing zealots. It’s one way to keep his stench in the air.

His assessment of the goal is incorrect.

This is Obama’s Katrina. Obama is not moving fast enough to stop the bleeding, and what he is doing is all wrong.

I know that it is intentional, but the people who voted for him won’t believe that. So, just keep calling it Obama’s Katrina.

Obama fiddles while the economy collapses.
