Have to say one thing -- some of you posters who have signed on in the last year are the most negative posters we have on here. Good news is always met with negative comments. Unbelieveable.

This is fantastic news and some of you on here act like the end is coming!

Wake up and smell the roses and lose that negativity which is the mantra of the Clinton/Kerry/McAuliffe democRATs!

I've been here for three years plus.

The same cheerleaders that insisted the economy was GREAT going into 2000/2001 were "shocked" when the recession hit.

The markets are forward-looking. Current indicators (unemployment numbers) don't say squat about a slowdown in personal spending, increase of debt, and the value of the dollar six months down the road. So when everyone is aghast that the markets are not ecstatic over the enmployment numbers, it has nothing to do with May 7, 2004, and everything to do with November 7, 2004.

Don't forget, there's an election coming. The financial world does not want John Kerry in the White House.
