if business perceives that the government is going to meddle in their affairs......business will stand on the sidelines......

this crowd does not make me want to take risks.....they make me feel like "if i do well....they will take it...."

I suppose the foreign markets declines have nothing to do with todays reaction? Hell no it is Obama and the dems that are to blame! School yard mentality.

Ever notice the foreign markets react to US events? I thought not.

Ever notice how the world is connected? Thought not! All along they have been going south through the Bush reign. Ours were so so and then began going down. That is free market at it's worst. Enjoy!

I closed mine out too, well in October. Paid down some debt and put a few shekels away for the holidays. Paid the taxes and done is done.

I'm very aware of the connections..and actually the bubble burst in 99 under yer pal Bill. The market recovered a great deal under Bush.

Mine was down to less than 4k, no point in continuing. So I guess the question becomes, 'how much do my kids love me?' Considering the other $150k was spent on them over the past 12 years, I hope some. LOL! Though they don't know that.

As did I Bro....the more a Pres. Obama became a reality, the more incentive I had to abandon wall street.....and I'm SOOOOO glad right along with you...
