How has the Obamacare bill affected the stock market?

I have no doubt that insurance and pharmaceuticals are moving one way or the other. Any other indicators from Wall Street?

    On the whole - the market is up.

    Pharma stocks are always good, but they are up some. Health insurance stocks haven't risen as much as I would have expected, but they certainly aren't down.

    Its too early to tell. The forced health care bill won't take effect until 2014?

    But according to today's Wall Street Journal (3/23/2010):

    DJJIA UP 0.4%

    NASDAQ UP 0.95%

    STOXX 50 UP 0.01%

    10-YR TREAS up 7/32, yield 3.664%

    OIL up $0.57
