The Dow industrials closed above 12,000 for the first time ever Thursday, the 19-year anniversary of the October 1987 stock market crash that was the worst one-day drop in Wall Street's history.

The 30-share Dow (up 19.05 to 12,011.73, Charts) finished 0.2 percent higher, setting a record closing high for the ninth time in the last 12 sessions.

Who says the economy of the United States is in the shitter?

How is this possible? The economy is near levels it was at during the depression... :Oh crap

things are looking up for the US Economy.

i hope the us dollar gets better...

Obviously you haven't been getting the emails about the TexHoma stocks...hahaha

hi Earnest i hope this is your e-mail.
I was glad to see you the other day. I expect you was excited about New York.
So much so much happening all the time, lots of great opportunities.
And speaking of opportunities, the deal I was speaking you about other day involves a company
named Tex-Homa (TXHE).
It's already heading up, but the big info isn't even
out yet, so there's still time. I have got this shares already and made
2000. I suggest you to do the same today.

Hope this helps you out. I'll see you this weekend.
Yours Earnest Hanna

Ha ha, looks like it might be close for the plug to be pulled. Won't be much fun for the cattle. :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

wohooo :thumbsup

That's impressive. I hope this good thing continues..

John Kerry says it is getting worse.
Hillary agrees.
must be.

Woweee:upsidedow

the US economy is great right now, hope it all continues.

Now that the economy is booming, some like a good time to address foreign debt and pay some bills?

I wonder if anyone here even knows what that really means.

Seriously doubt it judging by the responses :winkwink:

Yea you are a master economist dude.

Shut the fuck up already you fucking tool

Please explain...

It's not really that big of an accomplishment when you look at it. It took about 7 years for it to grow from 11,000 to 12,000. It took 24 days to go from 10,000 to 11,000. I'd equate the uptick in the DOW to the low gas prices and the fact that a lot of people who were in the housing market have shifted their money to the stock market.

Funny, because the stocks are not preforming that well

Or that the anti-U.S. rhetoric from elected officials accidentally got turned down when Harry got caught with his hand in the cookie jar.

*shrug*

What anti-US rhetoric? To be honest, most guys trading could give two shits who Mark Foley is fucking or what deal Harry Reid is scamming people on. Oil is down, people in housing are putting their money in other places. That is why the DOW is up.

Was just about to say exactly that :thumbsup

A couple of corps also returned decent stats which helped a bit. The bad news is Opec has agreed today to a cut in oil output (first time in over 2 years) - crude has dropped 20% since July so expect oil to rise to higher levels.

Can't see this making any change to currency levels - it's only one stat.

You're going to Cuba, fucker!

Love,
Bush

You know, so many of you are so clueless it isn?t even funny. It is, however, a testament to the effectiveness of government schools in their distribution and insemination into young bodies.

The economy is not getting better. It will NEVER get better until the whole goddamn thing crashes and burns. Sure, it might appear to get better. In fact, you might even think you are wealthy.

But its all a mirage. Its not real. The fact of the matter is the United States Dollar is no longer worth the paper its printed on. And it wont get any better until this whole thing comes crashing down and is replaced with a monetary unit backed in Gold/Silver.

Its like looking at the piles and piles of notes hot off the presses of a counterfeiter and saying "Damn, he is wealthy!"

The (false) belief is that the gold tie to the currency is what sparked the Depression. It's hogwash, but until we try it again, it's going to be the en vogue thing to say.

I wouldn't be pulling my information from a scam website and calling it fact.

I'll have a Spam on Wall Street with mayo, please.
