Down around 400 at the time of this post.

The ups and downs are making my head spin! What is so different between yesterday and today?

It's still the obamaconomy.

The world needs America to be strong, and fiscally responsible, and until we remove this despicable regime, nothing will be stable.

They may blame Europe and Japan, but the problem sits in the Oval Office (though not very often.....)

The market's yo-yo action tends to spoil confidence among investors, and in turn, that lack of faith fuels additional volatility

I guess $40,000 a year at Princeton gets you a degree in Obvious Analysis...

“Europe” fears.

And the Tea Party, and the Republicans, and the Japanese Tsunami, and the Middle East.

But Obama? Nahhh.

[Scott from the Left Coast]

European fears??? What about the imbeciles in the White House and Treasury and the Fed?

[Thunder90]

Geitner is going to do QE3 later this year. The Euros and Obama will demand it.

Home prices take another dip

Global markets getting hammered

Sarkozy abandons holiday as downgrade fears rock France

Gold hits record highs yet again

But...but...but, the Fed guaranteed and Sham Wowed low interest rates until after the 2012 election. Where is today's dead cat bounce? The unemployed will be going right out getting new credit cards to charge on and buying new homes to live in. US debt increases exponentially and the dollar is dropping. Happy days are here again! Woo Hoo!/s

Maybe George Soros felt like making another billion betting against the Dow.

[poindexter]

In the 1929 crash, there were also days of huge declines, followed immediately by huge gains. Back and forth, but the trend was lower with more very bad days than there were very good days.

Then there was a 5-month rally where the market gained 48%, but topped out and began a 2+ year decline.

Huge volatility is a bad sign....

If Obama would announce his resignation, the market would go up 2000 points.

The Obama Recession, you bone it you own it.

“When the wicked rise, men hide themselves.....” Prov.28:28

As commodities (oil etc., rise) while the stock markets fall/freeze, the de-coupling begins. Foreign countries (Japan, Australia, etc.,) will expose our lie, and not play along.

Hey AAAAAAAbboooooooott!

How bad is the economy, Lou?

Abbott, the economy is so bad I received a pre-maxed credit card in the mail.

Exxon-Mobil laid off 25 Congressmen.

Chase Bank laid off 5 Senators.

Angelina Jolie adopted a child from Vermont.

Motel Six makes you turn out the light.

A picture is now worth 20,000 words.

When Bill and Hillary travel together, they share a room.

I was so depressed thinking about the economy, that I called the Suicide Hotline. My call was routed to overseas Hotline center. They got excited and asked if I could drive a truck.

It’s about plunge protection time. Let’s watch.
