Today was one for the record books.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average hit its 2009 year high today, going as high 10,228 in late afternoon trading and finishing at 10,227. The NASDAQ didn't do too bad either, ending up 41 points at 2154. The S&P 500 was able to gain 23 points to close at 1093.
The Federal Reserve today also released a survey that shows banks are still limiting the amount of credit offered to both businesses and consumers. The market couldn't have cared less.
Gold also had a huge day. November gold futures ended at $1,100.80 an ounce and December contracts came in at $1,101.40 as gold continues to break records. Oil ended up $2.00 at $79.43 a barrel. The dollar, as expected, continues to fall to new lows.

But where's the job bubble?
The job bubble has to wait for the jihadist Death bubble to fade.
I’m sure that when the Dow hits 15000, it will be a great comfort to those of us who will be standing in the soup lines....
Duh, the market is ‘rising’ because the money the stocks are priced in is becoming worthless, as evidenced by the spike in the price of gold.
Seems like time to sell? I mean, you have gains that are supported by nothing.
Who’s going to sell?
There's no money to be made off it.
The jobs sinkhole.
We must use it to sink Democrats in 2010.
Exactly. This stock bubble is being fueled by the use of our increasingly worthless dollar as funding for carry trade.
It is going to be HIDEOUS when it pops.
This is just the band playing on the deck of the Titanic.
You have got that exactly right!

The SPX compared to the Euro and Gold.
The stock market is a joke.
Our only investments in the Stock Market are in the 401Ks and the 500.00 children’s education funds.
What do I do? It isn’t much but I don’t want to lose it all.
” The stock market is a joke. “
And yet, I’m not laughing....
I recetnyl moved my entire 401k into a stable value bond fund, and will be cashing it out entirely when my layoff termination becomes final next week.
“recetnyl” = recently
Epic typo.
Totally agree with you there.
I laugh, but it is not a fun filled ‘haha’ laugh. More like ‘I feel sick’ laugh.
And for good reason..If the banks ever release that cash there will be inflation a la Zimbabwe in short order.
I am thoroughly convinced there is massive market manipulation happening and equally convinced that Soros is behind it. And hell I’m not even a conspiracy person but if you have time research what that bastard has done to smaller individual countries economies.
This is smoke & mirrors to lull people into reversing what they know..........a.k.a. reality
Thank you!
