Remember the middle class maroon thread? You should have pulled out when the market crashed 1000 points in 20 minutes.

Technically, we hit that bottom again today. Historically double bottoms are always a bad sign. We will probably consolidate at these levels and continue to go lower.

Re: Obamanation here today

It's just an adjustment. The Dow gained 70% in the last year.
Way too fast . Profit taking now.

Yes, Greece and Europe problems gave it the kick down.

But, come the 2nd quarter earnings we shall see a rebound.

I think we hit the low today... got great resistance, and bounced back after being 300 down.

Not worried , yet. Besides, I have everything invested in US dollars, and these past 2 weeks, the cdn dollar dropped 7%, my mutual funds 10%..... so, only out 3%.
No big deal.

So, bring on the Vat Tax, to stop that madness, and Upstate would be thankful, too.
He might get a parking spot at the mall, again ! :greedy:

Don't worry, we can just declare bankruptcy and not pay China, just like a lot of companies do.

A Keynesian Paradox

The threat of a double-dip recession is real, but it should not be cause for more government “stimulus,” deficit-spending, bailouts, and low-interest monetary easing. The primary reason for the current market downturn is unacceptably high levels of sovereign debt and spending in Europe, the U.S., Japan, and elsewhere.

This poses a Keynesian paradox, defying Keynes’ essential proposition that in a recession, governments must engage in deficit-spending in the absence of private investment. Only, when the economic downturn began in 2007, that’s exactly what Western economies did. Now, they’re going broke, creating more dislocation in the markets — which the deficit-spending was supposed to cure.
Hence the paradox. The deficit-spending promised to bring the economy around, but instead it put too much pressure on government balance sheets, and now the global economy is suffering badly as a result.

Maybe you might listen to "socialist liberal Canada" next time ?

Our PM said this last year in July :

“My own thought is before there’s talk of additional stimulus, I would irge all leaders to focus first on making the stimulus that’s announced actually gets delivered,” said Harper.
“That’s been our focus in Canada and I would urge the same priority elsewhere.”
Harper also said he’ll be warning G8 leaders “to be very leery of the protectionist tendencies we are seeing in some countries’ stimulus plans.”
He said protectionism could prolong the global recession.
