Stock Market headed up.
« on: June 09, 2010, 10:28:53 AM »
Stock prices were rising when I looked a few minutes ago (DOW). Could it be that business sees a conservative swing in yesterdays primaries as a good sign? If that helps the general economy, is that going to be good or bad for conservatives in this falls elections?

“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

I'm just glad it's going up.  The past few weeks have been brutal.

The stock market tends to be more volatile in the summer, like it has been recently.

I look for it to go mostly sideways which would be much more acceptable than a double dipper. Little growth cause business are not going to expand with increased taxes hanging over their heads in the form of health care and the possibility of cap and tax and VAT being passed. Traders in the stock market love volatility; business owners hate it.
