the DOW jumped 300 points but I see no praise for the guy that is constantly blamed for it dropping. Comments?

well, thank you all. I'm fully aware that this is nothing more than the ball bouncing but I had to ask after I see him slammed every time FOX points out that it's down. I did enjoy those that think the Dow is going to make some huge recovery when the best we can hope for is it to stabilize and begin a new upward trend from a new lower reference point. Personally, I chuckle at anyone who thinks that the DOW is some great barometer of the economy but if it works for you then whatever.

by fact it hasn't bottomed out yet from the myriad of issues that have been piling directly to it over 30 years,... on the REPUBLICANS' watch. the present presidency has little to do with the marketplace's ability of self correction. For those those with a clever ideas, the Dow now no longer ability SQUAT. economic Markets have lost all credibility as any indicator of the well being of of a rustic, no longer to show the economic gadget. 1000_aliases, like maximum conservatives, you may no longer see the wooded area from the wood, and might extremely throw a screaming temper tantrum and beat the floor with your fists than admit you're incorrect, you have been incorrect for 30 years, and settle for that there are different ideas and doubtlessly extra suited ideas than what your short sighted mentality grants the USA. it somewhat is why you and your ilk are doomed to die off.

Since the market has nose dive since he was elected and keep dropping.

One day doesn't make a trend.


When things started to go right for Bush did the Democrats every give Bush credit?

When the surge work and Obama thinks it is a good idea did Democrats say they were wrong about it?

So don't expect anything for you know what they say about karma?
It is a female dog.

Well, when it is 2 degrees outside and people ask about global warming, those who believe in global warming say " It is just one day."
Today is only one day. See how the market has done since he was elected, and inaugurated.

Are we out of the woods yet?

It went up because the Fed sees some light at the end of the tunnel.

Seeing the light and being in the light are two different things.
