It think it relates much more to Rehn's announcement of the Euro-zone crisis than Obama's election. A mixture of both for sure, but leaning much more towards the former.

I also doubt it is much about the election, just the economic tanking in general world-wide.∞∞∞ wrote:It think it relates much more to Rehn's announcement of the Euro-zone crisis than Obama's election. A mixture of both for sure, but leaning much more towards the former.

Karl Rove, Bill Kristol, Dick Morris and Rush are liquidating their positions, causing a sell off, so they can move to Costa Rica or wherever.

I hear they are interviewing for support staff. Maybe you should look into that.GSUhooligan wrote:Karl Rove, Bill Kristol, Dick Morris and Rush are liquidating their positions, causing a sell off, so they can move to Costa Rica or wherever.
Now to get a few thousand other GSU fans to do the same. Where's Baldy? He's desperate

Maybe I don't understand how this works
I'm pretty sure they're in the business of division, separation and outrage... (Right..?)

Maher said tonight that comedy will suffer because of the outcome, but since the country will benefit, he will accept the reduced opportunity for comedy.

Re: Stock Market Down 312
Glad I pulled 75% of my portfolio out of stocks on Friday of last week.
I'm not sure I trust Congress enough to get anything done before the "fiscal cliff," so I'll watch this one from the sideline with most of my money.

Re: Stock Market Down 312
My thought process was pretty simple. I was up 10%+ year-to-date in my portfolio. I had no clue who was going to win election, but I was pretty sure the market would take a hit if Obama won. I thought there would be a bump if Romney won, but I was happy to let it go.Gil Dobie wrote:As of today, that looks like a great move.

I'll buy back in if this things keeps going down. If not, I'll gladly wait it out until January or Congress acts. I'll probably miss some gains but I'll still be up.

Eh, the market dropped a ton the two days after Obama was elected in 2008, and then recovered nicely for the next 3.5 years, even with the economy crawling along. The stock market is just a game these days.Gil Dobie wrote:Down 121 so far today.
