That's pretty funny! Amazing how someone that is a well respected man with military service and who represented his constituents for the past 26 years in the U.S House of Representatives and U.S. Senate could run such an absolutely ROOKIE Presidential campaign and get completely "clobbered"...

Let's face it, McCain ran one of the most "mediocre" Presidential campaigns in recent memory . . . He picked Palin as his VP as a "gimmick" to solidify his base, but that didn't help him one bit with "independents" . . . and as people go to know Sarah Palin better, even staunch conservatives...

You mean like the way the American public was "brain-washed" into thinking that invading Iraq was due to an "imminent threat" to our National Security?

It works on the way up where DEMAND is outpacing supply at the margin, but on the way down from record historical prices, demand "destruction" is really the 800 lb. Gorilla. Besides, its in their best interests right now to allow oil to break $80 ( which it obviously has ). This gets rid of...

Correct.

Ford and GM average about $3900 per vehicle in Long Term Debt. Where did that Debt come from? Ask their pension plan and health care administrator.

Very nice. Thanks! :)

For sure! :cool: P.S. Huge squeeze into the close of the SPY and ES.

The low volume is certainly leading to a lot of "erratic" prints that make today's market almost un-tradeable. Can't wait for the bell to ring! :(

You are a complete idiot. There are people in this country today whose parents were slaves.

If that is the case, you are arguing for S&P earnings to go to roughly $32.00

Duh.

Ooops! :(

Just got the LAUNCH! :D

is it just me and the stocks that I am looking at on my screen, or is there not much trading going on??? The "activity" level seems like that of a pre-Holiday session, no? Possibly waiting for Obama's speech? Had some data-feed issues earlier today, but supposedly they switched servers...

Why not put your partisan politics aside for once and ALSO acknowledge the "Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000" which allowed for the creation of $35 TRILLION in credit default swaps trading "unregulated" without any oversight whatsoever, AND the trading of power and energy contracts (...

Agreed 100%. And Schizophrenia is no laughing matter . . . I used to have a neighbor in Westport, CT that was an attorney and a diagnosed schizophrenic. Every now and then he suffered from some "episodes" that were clearly not by his own choosing. But leave it to people like German Trader...

Very possible Ed. I'm watching several stocks trading right now and the VOLUME is a total joke. These stocks ( and indices ) are being pushed around on absolutely nothing . . . The pace has certainly picked-up in the afternoon, but it doesn't take much to push this market lower with no...

Looks like we now have 5 down from the 92.40 SPY high at 2:51PM EST. 5=1 at 90.31
