Panic over - UK market up about 200 points in 30 mins
 

Is the Dow open yet?

Could be worth a few dollars to somebody......

Fewer people on suicide watch today on the financial programs.

lol - they are unlocking the windows as we speak....

This is still very far from over......mark my words

Nice move by the fed.

The Canadian markets are not doing so well today.

.

I'm not a financial wiz - but it does seem like a knee jerk reaction to the fed lowering its rate - and only to institutions - it wont filter down to Joe Average and as far as I can see its the 'sub prime' borrowing that is the issue.

wow
european markets took QUITE a jump
heavy shit
didn't see that one coming to be quite honest
i mean..who could forsee the fed decreasing the discount rate today
nice

the only crappy thing is the euro got stronger .6 against the dollar

Dow up 201 - Just in case anyone is interested.

Good for them..

The Real got stronger against the Dollar too. 3% today.

All markets seem to be up now.

:(

all they did long term was increase the rate of inflation.. yay

soon enough a cup of coffee will be $10
and that will be considered cheap :)

uh, the dow shrugged off europe yesterday.

in that case, that's bad to their economy! :Oh crap

There's still going to be a lot of market volatility for a while, mostly cos the banks are affected by all this too, and they are generally safe bets.
