I am glad I had scotch and coffee for breakfast. I feel justified now.

Wow, what a mess Obama (and Reid, Pelosi, Durbin...and so sadly McConnell, McCain and Boehner) has made of our economy.

Indeed.

Anyone that would listen to Boehner, Reid, Geithner, Obama and others over Jim DeMint is a fool! DeMint said that we were going to be downgraded with that debt deal so I ran for the hills. Damn, I wish that man was our POTUS/CIC.

The Dow will be in the neighborhood of 8,000 by the next election.

Maybe by the end of the week!

Market went negative for 2011 on Thursday.

All of today’s losses took us further negative on the year.

5% would be down 600 pts. That would be huge, curious, how old are you?

And here we sit at nearly 6% down. obummer must feel great...he's really knocking the USA around the laast couple of days...isn't he/ His daddy would be soooooo proud!

After watching Allen West cave to the crapsandwich debt deal, I swear stephenjohnbanker, I don’t know what to do next. The Lord is my only hope. This roller caoster ride is far from over and sometimes the cars jump the tracks. Keep your powder dry my FRiend.

The DOW is about where it was in 2000. Not a happy picture for an investor who kept a stock index fund over that period. To succeed, do you have to foresee irrational trends in the markets?

Market was at 10,583 at the beginning of 2010...we're within 250 points of giving back 2010 gains, as well.

We can do that tomorrow...easy.

From your lips to God’s ear.

As the stock advisers will tell you, you purchase stocks and hold on.

How has that worked for eleven years? Your mattress could have actually had better returns.

I remember a few months ago that the stock gurus were saying that DOW 10,800 was some kind of psychological barrier. Here we are again....

Not really a 'ride.'

More like a plummet.
