I think the reports will only confirm what is already known. Volume forecasts are horrible to say the least.

What a frantic day 4 me...
3 hrs sleep...
Now ya know I can't miss the end of civilization as we know it now...right???

I'm going to se if I can get this thread on the homepage, here it goes.

NWO, aliens, spacecraft, Masons, IMF, abduction, chemtrails, CIA, FBI, Big Brother, 2012, brainwash, NSA, Obama,



worth a shot right?

shameless plug for the ticker guy

Blog talk radio show begins in about 8 minutes - he will be covering today's market as well as market news

Check it out

We have new Jobs data coming out soon as well. This is not likely to be good news. The White House is gambling with our future and ALL the odds are stacked against him. This is what happens when you engage in class warfare instead of the fairness he preaches. You wanna be fair Obama? Cut taxes for EVERYONE and STOP SPENDING MONEY. You want to make the tax policy more fair? How about the Fair Tax? National sales tax, there you go. Why is it that Americans are force to tighten the belt while the government swells to unprecedented size and power? They are literally being fed by the fruit of our labor, and then they think they have the right to "fix it" when the original plans goes sour.

HEY WHERES MY STAR!? .. Took a long weekend, and come back to find the World has Ended. Well, maybe not ended, but it sure does seem we are heading in that general direction.

While point wise, the drop on the Market Index's where quite large, surprisingly large actually, the % lost continually gains as the index shrinks. Today for instance, 4-5.5% losses.

IMO, this is a "stress test" of the general economy, to see how the markets will handle without government intervention. No one here I am sure, expects the Market Index's to reach 1980's levels without some massive government assurance program..

I wonder what they will do.. to soon for a bailout, stimulus, etc.. perhaps another round of capital injections into the manufacturing industries? Then again, does it even matter.. the trillions pumped into the economy have done diddly squat to halt the general economy from sinking like the titanic. Capital is lost, manufacturing is down, expect more layoffs as the deflationary spiral continues.. the spiral that trillions injected into the economy have not been able to apprehend. By the end of March we could see the DOW below 6,000.. which considering it is an index of the 30 largest companies in the US, that is hardly relieving to those worried about further job losses.

edit to fix my elementary spelling abilities.

Question to the general population here:

Seeing as Credit Default Swaps where the cause of this "financial meltdown" .. (regardless of what the liars, ahem, politicians say..) has anyone heard a damn word from Washington about outlawing CDS's??????

I sure haven't ...

Holy Swimming Carps

Take a look at this

OVER 11 TRILLION allocated and still no recovery

When are they going to realize that they are NOT doing the right thing?

I mentioned that earlier...Matt Nesto on CNBC spit that stat out...amazing...stupid...dumb...a waste...ect

They have no way in hell to stop this...slow it down is the best they can hope for at this point...as WE'VE known for awhile now...

They already know that they aren't doing the right thing.

They just don't care.

We will finally all be equal in wealth soon...thanks to Obama. Finally the dream will be fulfilled.

We will all be equal...equally POOR....while our government gets absolutely gigantic.

I'm sorry but I just can't see how this isn't intentional anymore.

A blind man could look at this and see that it's not going work.

If this isn't intentional...then we have the most idiotic people in the country running the government.

Obama will go down as the worst President in U.S. history...worse than Bush....worse than Hoover.

Obama is a total disaster for this country.

]Freddie Mac's CEO resigns

Why do I get the feeling that we are to expect MORE bad news from this GSE???

How bad can it possibly get? Well, let's think about that, since to be considered "delinquent" with Freddie Mac, you have to have 24 missed payments. Yes, 24 - look it up.

Unbelievable

Wave 2 ready to begin

EVEN BETTER!!!

AIG's ex CEO is suing AIG for selling him "inflated" stocks

Can they turn that into a class action so I can get some money back too????
