I just figured that since Obama was to blame for the 300 point "crash",(according to Splum) that Splum would be in here congratulating him on his outstanding work of making the Dow rise 1000 points since then.sig too bigComment

This is a very dangerous market. It trades almost entirely on sentiment, not fundamentals. On any day, the market can turn on a dime.Comment

Obama had nothing to do with the bump today (except that he was out of the country) - it was entirely do to changes in accounting regulations.
and granted, while he cannot be blamed entirely for the drop, his rhetoric going back for the past 14 months did not help investor sentiment.
But on even more important news, the jobless rate continues to climb at alarming rates. Anothere 670,000 new jobless claims LAST WEEK!
There is a saying in the markets, 'beware of a the dead cat bounce' meaning, even a dead cat will bounce if it falls far enough - but that doesn't change the state fo the cat, its still dead.
..................
WASHINGTON--U.S. accounting rulemakers on Thursday agreed to make adjustments to its proposal to change mark-to-market accounting rules concerning when transactions would be considered distressed.
The Financial Accounting Standards Board said its proposed changes would take effect in the second quarter for most U.S. companies, but early adoption would be allowed for most companies' first quarter.
The board, at a meeting in Norwalk, Connecticut, said it would remove a presumption in its original proposal that would have allowed all transactions in an inactive market to be considered distressed unless proven otherwise. It said that particular language could have had unintended consequences.
FASB also said the objective of mark-to-market, or fair value accounting, in inactive markets would be to determine what an asset could fetch in an "orderly" transaction between market participants. It said an "orderly" transaction would not include distressed transactions or fire-sales.
The board is continuing discussions on the rule and another rule on other-than-temporary impairment issues that affect when writedowns have to be taken on financial assets that have suffered a decline in value.Was a graphics master for Lensman @ Adult.com but now... I can't tell ya cause it aint top secret.

Not that I side with some of Splums beliefs, rants, etc. some of you people make me laugh. This whole thing is just like the gas situation. They jacked the prices on us for so long that when they cut that hike back by half people have convinced themselves that the new lower price is good, EVEN THOUGH IT IS STILL WAY HIGHER THAN WE WERE PAYING 2 OR 3 YEARS AGO. They did nothing more than set a new price and convinced us to be happy about it by scaring people with the initial spikes.
This is going the same for wall street right now. Look over the 6 month period and you tell me the market is on a roll. 85 to 90% down days versus the 10% up trend we are seeing right now doesn't mean shit. YET! When I see the market stabilize and showing positive numbers for more days than negative ones I might then allow myself to believe things have a chance of actually improving.

It doesn't have anything to do with Obama. That's the whole fucking point.
And IF you're one of those people who's going to come in here blaming Obama every time the market drops, then you should be in here giving him props when it goes up.
I'm just pointing out the lunacy and hypocrisy in blaming temporary stock market drops on the President.
I love how you think there's this "they" group of people who are pulling the strings and controlling the price of everything.Not that I side with some of Splums beliefs, rants, etc. some of you people make me laugh.

FWIW, oil prices were due for a rise, they had been flat in dollar terms for decades, and in real terms had actually dropped slowly for decades. (99 cent gas in 1980 and in 1995)
The only reason they're in the $2 range right now is because the recession has dampened demand. Once the economy picks back up, upward pressure on oil prices will resume.
Also, this is a 4 week surge in the market, not a one day bump....again FWIWsig too bigComment

The market can't be trusted, because the root problems of the american economy still exist and haven't been addressed, not can they be addressed on a time scale of months.
The investor class is a pack of emotional ninnies. We could just as easily face more steep drops as steep rises. All that would prove is that the investor class are sheep.
However, whiney little backstabbing bitches like splum and all these turncoat no-ideas republicans can be counted on for only one thing - girlish whining.
One thing you'll never see from a republican is taking responsibility.Comment

I am starting to think GFY is declining in intelligent posters and debate. This is the second time one of my posts was not understood or taken out of context. Maybe I should use fewer words and include pictures.
1. Where did I say there is a "they" controlling the price of "everything"? I am talking about ONE, get that? ONE item... GAS! And yes, someone does control the pricing on that, it doesn't just do it on its own.
2. I never said they weren't due for a rise. But it didn't rise, gradually or otherwise. It skyrocketed.
3. I don't recall saying the market HAS NOT had a surge recently. Did I? I merely stated, like the gas analogy, the Dow is nothing to be jumping up and down about. YET! Remember that part of my post? When I said YET? Did you also happen to read where I said this surge is nothing really compared to the down turn over the past 6 months to a year. You do realize the Dow was at 14,000 a year ago.
So again, when we see more than 1 month of a good market I will believe that things are about to "change" And I, as you, don't think President Obama has or had anything to do with it. I mean how can a man who had a mere 2 years experience in the govt before becoming the president have that kind of power.Last edited by Darkland; 04-03-2009, 08:38 AM.

Up today, down tomorrow, down some more and back up again to build some hope and shut the people up only to crash again.

Yeah since you started posting here anyways.
You said, and I quote "This whole thing is just like the gas situation. They jacked the prices on us for so long that when they cut that hike back.........This is going the same for wall street right now"
Those were your exact words, but somehow my intellect is questionable when I call you on thinking there's a "they" out there that controls prices and markets?
Whatever.
Nice try on the Obama dig at the end too, as if the constitutional powers of the Presidency are on a sliding scale based on what you did before you were President.
Idiot.sig too bigComment

I never said there was a "they" that controls the prices and markets on wall street... You got me mixed up with a NWO nutter. THEY was in reference to the gas and oil prices. Get a clue and quit trying to twist my words.
Since you can't comprehend what you read or fully realize an analogy (look the word up if you don't know what that is), I took the liberty of drawing a picture for you.
Hope that helps...

And for curiosities sake, did anyone else have trouble understanding my analogy and original post?
I could allow for the fact that maybe I didn't make it clear, but not sure how I could of said it any different.

Well let's see, you "could have" said it different, you even "could've" said it different, because even though that's not a real word, it's still commonly used in speech. However, I don't think you "could of" done anything, since those two words don't go together that way.
If you're going to call people dumb and tell them to look up words they don't understand (big intimidating words like "analogy" no less) you really shouldn't write like a retarded illiterate in the very same thread. Otherwise that whole pot and kettle thing becomes a problem.
