Dow reaches 4 year high, NASDAQ reaches 11 year high

...too many people out of work...too many jobs lost...


.... in the days of Good Old Boy Politics the above is exactly what drove a market to new highs.

Thankfully we have the present Administration that curtailed the 07-09 Great Recession and has produced positive GDP each quarter since June of 09 that is the driving force behind the current market upswing through the ensuing positive economic growth.

Here, let me fix that for you.........the correct word is prolooooooooonged.

The stock market has doubled since the stimulus.
3.9 million private sector jobs have been created since 2009.
GDP has been growing since 2009.
Americans net worth is up $9 trillion dollars since 2009.
Auto sales are up. Retail sales are up. Home sales are up. Unemployment is down.
GM was saved, and is now the number one automaker in the world.

Obama has done a very good job.

The stock market is not related to the stimulus.

The private sector job growth is acknowledged as being poor.
GDP means nothing when unemployment.
Net worth is only a return of what was lost before....Dennis The Meance Kucinich could have been in the WH.
The country thinks Obama sucks.
GM now pays slave wages to protect their more tenured employees.

You post nothing but spam.

If I could neg you again...I would.
 
A resurgent U.S. job market that has lifted the economy appears to be enduring.

Factories in the Northeast kept hiring in early March. And the number of people applying for unemployment aid last week fell back to a four-year low. The economy is adding jobs at a time when inflation remains relatively mild outside of higher gas prices.

Upbeat government reports Thursday reinforced the message sent by last week's encouraging February job figures.

The good economic news drove stocks higher. The Standard & Poor's 500 index closed above 1,400 for the first time since June 2008. The Dow Jones industrial average finished up for the seventh straight session at 13,252.76 — the highest close since the last day of 2007.

"More solid U.S. economic data (are) pointing to a gradually improving labor market, a bounce-back in manufacturing and no material ... inflation pressure," said Robert Kavcic, an economist at BMO Capital Markets.

Applications for unemployment aid dropped to a seasonally adjusted 351,000, the Labor Department said Thursday. That matched a four-year low reached last month. The four-week average, which smooths fluctuations, was unchanged at 355,750, also a four-year low.

Yeah it looks like the investor class is finally recovering from the BUSH STOCK MARKET CRASH.

Sadly the working classes aren't in such good shape.
 
NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- U.S. stocks rallied late Tuesday to close sharply higher on news that most of the nation's largest banks have passed the government's latest test of their financial health.

The Dow Jones Industrial average (INDU) rose 218 points, or 1.8%, to close at 13,177. It was the highest close since Dec. 31, 2007, when Dow closed at 13,264.82.

The S&P 500 (SPX) added 25 points, or 1.8%, to 1,396.

The Nasdaq (COMP) jumped 56 points, or 1.9%, to 3,040. It was the highest closing level since Nov. 15, 2000.

Damn those 1 percenters, HUH!

The working classes that are bright enough to contribute to a 401K or are retired and rely on their IRA for income are in much better shape.
 
the markets are available to everyone - not necessarily a recommendation ...

- indirectly as well the rates on bank deposits are affected by the stock market etc. etc. so to say working people are not affected is incorrect and as a negative market affects everyone (unemployment) so does a positive one.

Sir Spamelot speaks (or farts) again.

It is no more true today than it was when you first squeezed it out.

But you keep posting it.

And we'll keep pointing out what a moron you are.
 
I am happy the economy is picking up.

It still has some key issues.

I am just sad that we have a moron in the White House who has gotten in the way of any recovery we may be experiencing.
 

Yep. The rich are still getting richer. This is all great news for me.

But you know what else is at new highs?

Food prices. They are seriously outpacing inflation.

So Obama's base is being Left Behind their Messiah's Rapture.

Speak for yourself.

I'm making more money than I every have.

With corporations? On the back of the under paid middle class?
Chris....you're a hypocrit

Wiggle out of what exactly Chrissy?

Don't expect an answer.

OctoChrissy is an ink-off artist who bunge jumps in like a low I.Q. stormtrooper who worships a full sized cardboard cut-out of Nancy Pelosi (and who know what else he does with it.....yuck), and then disappears before the fact (which he says he argues....but never has) catch up to him.

If there is an award for board moron....it goes to Chris.

In my judgement in past months with Chrissy...and him demanding that I accept that I am a Socialist for belonging to a Credit Union based solely on that alone?

*I* would tend to agree.

Chrissy is non compus mentus to put it mildly. :cuckoo:
