Think it will be the same here? 

Personally, I'll be pleasantly surprised if it isn't.

Amazing.  The silly goats rush to save what they have been spending years to gut, their private economies.  Maybe government needs to step out of the way and get off peoples' backs.

All those idots want to save is their butts.

Put me down for:
down til noon and recover, even gain by the closing bell.

the Obama-pacalypse will fizzle just like everything else this mope has tried
 he would love to see us as a 3rd rate nation, Greece, Portugal etc depending entirely upon his narcissistic ass for survival, but algorithm trading and HFT will roll over him like the greasy speed bump that he is

Heed this advice at your own risk with real money as it is a prediction hatched by me and my friends Rocky and Bubba last night after a couple cases of Samuel Adams.

Some late in August or early September of '12 might be a good time.  I have a feeling the market will start moving in a positive direction after the first polls start coming out...

Asian markets were down about 2%-5% depending on the market.  Not horrible not great.

What is a bagger?  a right wing douche bag like yourself who would rather hold a gun to the head of the economy than to have a workable solution to long term debt.  Short for tea bagger.

I've been short of the DOW since July 4 (sold @ 12580) (and was in the red and paying margin calls until July 22 when it peaked >12800)

DJIA's grey market has dipped below 11190 4 times since Friday's official close at 11444 ... I'm currently (11:00 GMT) being offered >11200.

I'm staying short and holding on to my seat ... I expect the US PPT to be heavily involved today so I think it's going to be a choppy ride down to >10500 - but it's a crap shoot.

More 'feelings' huh, foodserver.

More 'feelings' huh, foodserver. 

I'll agree it's not much of a prediction but once the nation has an official alternative in front of it, I'm expecting some favorable polls for that alternative to fuel a market hungry for good news.

If the market starts going up in response--it won't be a coincidence...

What are your 'feelings' regarding the DOW going from 7300 in Feb 2009 to 12700 this June?

What are your 'feelings' regarding the DOW going from 7300 in Feb 2009 to 12700 this June?

I believe you've answered your own question and demonstrated my point.  The "feelings" of "Hope and Change" plus the gradual realization that the Bush Doctrine would be upheld,  spurred a market hungry for good news.  Now that it's pretty clear the fluffy bunnies, unicorns and rainbows are not going to appear...

U.S. stocks plunged sharply Monday as Wall Street faced Standard & Poor's historical downgrade of the United States' credit rating.

The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) sank 350 points, or 3%; the S&P 500 (SPX) lost 43 points, or 3.7; and the Nasdaq Composite (COMP) dropped 101 points, or 4 %.
