White House refusing to comment on stock market turmoil.

Very bearish. They won't even comment now.

Markets have barely moved off of highs, so no real pressure... yet.

As soon as there is, the Fed will be cuttin', pumpin', jawin'... same old, same old.

Bernanke isn't telling investors to not expect a rate cut bail out.

As of today, 86% chance of a mid-year Fed cut .

Quote from Spectre2007:

this type of theme is extremely bad, this is going to unhinge the system. Throughout recenty history the fed was accomodative during periods of financial volatility. The market gained comfort in this.

I can only think, this is a massive destruction of wealth/transfer of wealth into the relatively few, who have positioned themselves accordingly.

This does not bode well, just when I was thinking there was a possibility of stabilization. This type of news is hinting that the only place to be is in bonds. The major benefactors are US bond holders which are mostly overseas Asian authorities.

This leads me to further believe, this is a massive stop run on people frowning US govt debt. And is forcing the market place to horde it and accumulate it. Its almost as if Asia/US authorities plus some choice trading houses have conspired to have this unfold.

Paulson from private institution and now holding a public position. This market debacle will benefit whoever is holding US debt. And it seems thats what it was engineered to do. To reinforce dollar hegemony on the world.

dollar hegemony? 40& drop in the dollar againt the euro and you are talking about $hegemony.?

As long as Halliburton doesn't go through the floor something tells me the White House doesn't care much for the small investor

Got any kids they can send to Iraq?

Despite the "86%" chance of a rate cut something tells me there won't be a rate cut

Bush looks bad enough as is...having the country go into recession because of this catalyst would just be the cherry on top of it all...

When your done losing money trying to short the market, go buy yourself a good history book.

Ummm. Remember "A Fish called Wanda" when Cleese is being held out the window by his feet and it's along way down. Apologize. Yes, apologize.
