“The Dow’s all excited about this, the dawning of a new and better day”
Oh please. Obama is going to have little effect on the structural weaknesses of stocks in the Dow. The same can be said for Bush 43 or McCain. Look at C (-10%) and BAC (-18%) for the day - those have been going down regardless of who has been President.
The economy is going through something unlike the past several decades. Americans having/not having confidence in President Obama is not going to materially impact these structural weaknesses.
