Down 250+ in the first hour… Come on Obama come save us!
Quick shoot some stimulus my way!!!
I was thinking more like a tranquilizer.
F me.
I guess you can look at it this way,not too much lower left to go

Thank you for reminding me, that it is time to buy.
Fear must give you some form of satisfaction or intrinsic feeling of joy. Your constant postings of doom and gloom are annoying.
You have two choices:
-
Get out of the market and into a stable cash (or diversified currency) position and ride it out.
-
Stay in the market and hope for the best.
Worrying about something over which you have no contol is pointless. Why freak out every day the market goes down? Your stress levels must be cranking out the cortisol, which will cause you weight gain and your race times will be slower.

weren’t people going on how it was time to buy at 11,000? then at 10,000? now at 9,000? when are people going to realize that ‘investing’ in anything but fixed-rate nowadays is just a byword for ‘gambling’?
na I think gambling has more promise…of course I’m thinking that b/c I’ll be in Vegas on Friday ![]()

Down 300 points.
Thank you President Obama…and a special thanks to Senators Specter, Collins, and Snowe.
nothing to do with japan on monday? new conservative crowd moto: something goes wrong in the world → blame obama!
I’m still waiting for all of the Obama apologists to explain away the fact that the entire investing world has just basically said over the past 10 investing days that Obama/Congress’ stimulus plan is a blatant clusterfuck. How do we “Hope, Change, Believe” our way away from this one?
Hey fly:yes, keep launching excuses… You probably can explain your way to a 5,000 DJIA and 15% unemployment. Not sure how much of that will be Obama’s fault but I can tell you that he just approved wasting $800 billion that won’t do jack. that is on his watch. The guy is in over his head.
You sound like the typical frustrated football fan, whose team has been constantly losing for the past 2 years. The team gets a new coach and after 3 weeks, losing the opening game, and the retarded fan wants to get rid of the coach.
If you really cared about results, rather than caring about your stupid partisan agenda, you’d just wait a year or so, to see how the economy picks up (or not) and then, decide if it’s time to bash or not.
dow was closed on monday. japan announced a 12.7% reduction on monday. every other major market had huge losses on monday. (did you look at the futures?) of course the market was going to go down today. was some of it due to the stimulus package? maybe. was most of it due to concerns over japan? you bet your ass. if you do not see this, then you need help.
sorry to throw a wrench into your “obama killed the world” theory.
hey frenchy… wait a year? i don’t need that much time to convince me that its amateur hour in Washington and the current leadership is driving us off a cliff.
Amateur hour is still better than complete beginner…heck…even after 8yrs, it was still beginner hour.
There there pedalsaurus, jesus loves you even if everyone else thinks you’re a halfwit

I’ve given up the thought of retiring by age 80.
Can you imagine what the LR would have said if the Dow dropped 2,000 points in the first month of Bush’s presidency?
At some point you have to accept the fact that until the Administration explains a coherent plan for the toxic assets inherent in the marketplace right now the stock market will continue to swoon.
A fantabulous spending bill is not the answer to what ails the market. Actual concrete plans might make an impact. One can only hope.
