Compare that to the decrease in the value of a dollar and you will find that it is all fluff.

Isn't this the same stock market that the Right always wants to put their SS payroll tax into?

Isn't it odd that those same people scoff at the stock market when it does well?

I'll see your stock market is not the economy, and raise you a President isn't always to blame or give credit to for the stock market's performance.

Now lets all have a beer, please sir don't but that goddamn orange on it.

I don't know how old you are or how much you know about the stock market but 200-300 point daily variations are certainly not the norm.

And when the market has a big drop again will it be bad job with the economy Mr President?

You make me laugh....

the Stock Market is looking kindly to the future ... at present and likes the new kid on the block, "Mr. Trillion".

Did it occur to anyone the market has gone up because the debt ceiling and spending cuts debate got pushed down the road again? I don't consider pushing a problem down the road yet again great leadership by anyone Dem or Rep. So before we let the good times roll let's see how the market reacts in a few months when were facing the same problem yet again?

I have money in the market...that's not the point.

The point is the disparity.

Yes, the stock market is doing great...far outpacing the economy.

But so far, the economy still sucks.

Maybe the market is an indicator that the economy is actually on the rebound...but then again, maybe not.

Maybe the market is artificially inflated by cheap money.

The bottom line is exactly what I posted...the stock market is not the economy.

Just in time to sucker the little guys back in.....

As usual, Obama gets credit for nothing, but the blame for everything.

That's why the dollar has gained against the Euro? You silly people. My stocks are doing well, my dividends well.

Actually it's Obama who gets credit for anything and Bush who still the blame for everything.

Based on inflated dollars, YIPEEEEEEE

 

[BreezeWood]

the markets have far outpaced inflation ... and that is a trick considering the markets are a hedge against inflation when the opposite is true.
