Good. That's a healthy sign of sanity returning, because only a crazy person would think stocks were actually worth what they've been valued at over the last fifteen years.
Once stocks finally lose enough value and puts an end to the vampire leeches who've been enriching themselves at the expense of opportunity for those who have something real to contribute, then maybe we can then restart the economy on the basis of rewarding real work and real productivity.
This will mean that tarrifs will have to be placed on imported goods from countries that pollute and exploit workers.
There is no reason for American businesses with civilized, responsible treatment of the environment and of workers, to have to compete with companies employing workers who live in huts breathing polluted air and drinking polluted water.
Nor does it make sense to expend time, resources, precious energy, and to pollute the air and seas by schlepping this stuff across an ocean.
The cheap gizmos imported from overseas, are poor recompense for how small town America has been gutted by loss of jobs and for how that process is now extending to urban areas as white collar jobs are being replaced by the internet.
All that misery visited on Americans for the sake a few glittering trinkets.
Americans have been had in the same way Native Americans also sold their land--"The Heart of Everything that Is"--for a few glittering trinkets.
So did you stay home rather than vote for a Mormon? Romney would have shut down travel immediately. Hope you're happy with your choice.
You are correct about what he is doing. What almost none of you realize is that extremely wealthy people and groups behind the scenes put him there. Those supporters are the ones who have to be eliminated. They want us gone for several reasons. Soros, Middle Eastern billionaires, ACLU types, lawyers, etc., ad nauseum.
I think you left out printing billions in new money to prop up the economy..or something like that.
Back to sanity...I hope!
The day is not over. The week is not over. Wait till more people come down with ebola.
USA today online is reporting that 2014 gains have been erased.
Gotta find the blog where the O-bots are crowing about a 17,000 DOW. Wonder if it’s active today... hmmm.
I’m not wishing the market tanks but if it is going to do so less than a month before an important election is a good time for it to happen.
Mr Yellen, slap the turbocharger on the presses.
It’s just a flesh wound.

Glad we’re going to SoutheastAsia soon and a nice safe healthy environment.
We’ll miss all the politico ads and the election coverage. I’ll feel better just typing that. :-)
One of many economic analysts saying the same thing:

So the ship is upside down ?? We want to go to the bottom of the ship not to drown !!!
If Obama comes out of his meeting and makes a feckless statement BEFORE the markets close, hang on for a blood-curdling plunge.
oh and who was stage-managed by a creepy cabal whose best killer instincts emerged only in going after conservatives
Romney proved he couldn't carry the dog vote even if he wore a pork chop around his neck. There is something really OFF about that pod-person
People are going to stop flying and shopping.
Amazingly many articles blame the fall on poor earnings.
Yes, I would be SO MUCH HAPPIER with a Republican commie than this Democrat one.
