Is Obama going to give a speech soon?
“Europe” fears.
And the Tea Party, and the Republicans, and the Japanese Tsunami, and the Middle East.
But Obama? Nahhh.
FNC is useless; I gave up on them the last time I was back home in the States.
MWGN, that’s what I call them.
Missing White Girl Network.
Just like we all used to call the History Channel the “Hitler Channel” (I like History Channel, by the way).
0bama is busy on his prayer rug and he has the big muzzie dinner tonight so get off his back!
European fears??? What about the imbeciles in the White House and Treasury and the Fed?
Obama said we shouldn’t pay attention to the daily gyrations of the stock market. So I’m sure he is not paying attention.
Wow, down 400 points has wiped out yesterday’s gain. Of course yesterday’s gain was just a partial rebound from the 600+ point loss the day before, and the 500+ point loss last Friday.
Sorry, man, but they're really frickin' hung over after their congratulatory party last night.
There’s a little buying, then another leg down.
Down 459 right now. Who knows where it will close?
My holdings are getting stronger in those categories. Oddly enough, I am in fairly good shape. Especially my individual Oil well stocks. They are all up 10%.
re FNC useless, yup, except for Megan Kelly and Gretta it is useless. FBN is much better, they (FBN) actually have reporters the report news instead of 24/7 talking heads that know absolutely nothing. CNBC is not bad either (prior to 5pm) if business coverage is your thing.
Geitner is going to do QE3 later this year. The Euros and Obama will demand it.

Not to be too much of a cynic, but I gotta ask exactly how much my great-grandkids are going to have to pay for that "huge rally".
GRRRRRRRRR
There will be up days when some people will get back in - possibly covering shorts. Because yesterday the market was up, today some folks who procrastinated about getting out dumped their stock because they know the market is going to go down and thought they saw a chance. But that didn’t last long. People are starting to run for the exits. I think that there have been people/groups propping us up for a while because the high market valuation just doesn’t make sense. They are pulling out the rug now. Just part of the attack against our way of life.
The ups and downs are making my head spin! What is so different between yesterday and today?

in between the two, was the European stock market.
and there are rumors that the LARGEST french bank could go under, mainly because of their loans to Greece.
their stock just went down about 17%.
so this would have some effect on the USA markets today.
On FOX, this stock market thing is ‘so last week.’
Up 700 points.
I totally missed this one, so I am riding it out. I did pretty good in 2008 - got out early in the downslide and got in just as it started back up.
Only if Barry desires that it tank even futher and faster.
