Bush's fault.
Worst economy since Hoover.
Bubble.
All burger flipping jobs.
Illegals.
Fake but accurate.

Six year high. That would include one of Bubba's years.

Bush has done a great job with the economy, but until the Dow makes new all-time highs I'm still assuming this is a very impressive bear market rally.

Nice. The DJIA closed at 11,342.89 on Thursday afternoon, a new six-year high, going back to January 2000. My IRA and portfolio are loving this action.
Yeah sure, demokkkRATs: the economy sucks.

I wonder how much folks could have made if they were allowed to invest part of their social security into the stock market ?

Six year high. That would include one of Bubba's years. EXACTLY. Makes me wonder if that's why Reuters reported "5-year high".

A person on another board noted that speculation in penny stocks is at an all-time high (over 4 times the rate in early 2000).
When that junk gets so much activity, the end of the rally is near.

I wish all of my SS deductions went straight into my 401(k). Year after year, it does way better than the 1% or 2% earned on SS funds.

Know when to hold them...know when to fold them. Sometimes it's hard to sell when your down 20%, with eternal hope that things will turn around. Next thing you know your are down 50%
