    Yup, but look at the trend as to who it jumps for and drops for.

    Hardly comparable. It's a fact that the market did react to Obama's treasury pick on Friday. Today was more Citigroup.

    actually moron, the dow dropped during and after Obama's speech. Not that his speech caused it by any stretch of the imagination, but you should at least attempt to check your facts before presenting them.
    Quote from Cypress:
    "Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.

    They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "

    The Citi Bank bailout pretty much caused today's slight increase. This, of course, does not mean we are out of the woods. So long as people are scared and feel like there is a bad economy, they will be right.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    So all of this economic trouble is caused by bad Karma ?

    So you agree then that because Obama spoke the market went up? Well if he is that magical then let him speak everyday while the market is open.

    It's caused by fear. Not bad karma.
