IBM is still in business?
They actually opened a couple bucks higher today. It is still about
16-17 bucks off the 52 week high. I am still not sure what they do
these days

Except for two stocks, we got out of the stock market years ago and
don't really pay any attention to it, except to chuckle over its
vagaries and the belief anyone pays to its "integrity."


It's the economy, stupid!

To me, it is just another indicator of the b.s. on the economy being fed
to boobus Americanus by the chief bushshi**er, George W. Bush. The sad
state of the economy, the lack of jobs, the foreclosures, the growing
number of Americans with no health insurance, et cetera, will play a big
role this fall in electing a president from the Democratic party and will
help give the Democrats a working majority in the House and Senate.

Which would you rather see-

Dow collapses to 4,000 guaranteeing that the Dems win the white house-

or

Dow reaches 15,000 reducing the chance that the Dems win the white house
to 50%.


Neither choice is financially realistic. But, since when is reality the norm
for the stock market?
