More economic GOOD News...DOW hits new record..on track to hit 17K.

[Spoonman]

Moreso than labor that produces a product? I don't think so

It is labor that built this country

Hard to find people willing to labor for nothing.

Hard to find capitalists willing to build a product themselves

even harder to find a socialist willing to make a buck on their own

Socialist are the ones with employees on the government dole, taking subsidies & abusing tax loopholes.

Dow Average and S&P 500 Hit New Highs
Stocks Notch Records as Beaten-Down Shares Mount a Rally

nvestors snapped up shares of companies large and small, driving major indexes to records and reviving beaten-down technology stocks.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average climbed 112.13 points, or 0.7%, to 16695.47, notching its second record finish in as many sessions and its third new high of 2014. The Dow notched 52 records in 2013.

The S&P 500 added 18.17 points, or 1%, to 1896.65, squeezing out its ninth record close of the year.

That along with a great April jobs report should really be making you folks cry.

Bonds Bid And Stocks Skid As Investors Realize Wednesday Is Not Tuesday


It would seem that the day after Tuesday is not Tuesday... and so stocks sold off. The Russell 2000 is now 3% off its Monday highs, comfortably red for the week, and back below its crucial 200day moving-average. The Nasdaq is also down with the 50DMA crossing death-like below the 100DMA. Of course, it is the "you can't trust the signals" bond market that is making the real headlines as 10Y yields slump to fresh 7-month lows breaking notable support. The USD leaked lower on the day (but USDJPY was stable under 102) as ECB talked back some of the recent EUR losses. Commodities all pushed higher with silver up over 3% onthe week, gold back over $1305, and WTI over $102. VIX pumped-and-dumped at the open but could not sustain weakness as 330RAMP saw VIX's slam unable to drag stocks notably higher.

Bull shit.

Will you send one over to cut my lawn

Cutting a lawn isn't building a product, but I bet (or hope) there is an entrepreneurial teenager in your neighborhood who would love to earn some money.

Capitalists, by definition, don't building anything.

They invest.

What have liberals done specifically to grow the stock market?

Dodd-Frank, SEC, CFTC, FED, Treasury enforcement. Protecting investors from theft & keeping the system honest increases willingness to invest.

Dodd Frank and the SEC sparked a rally in the stock market??

None of those things made the market move. And all of the banks specifically loath Dodd Frank.

Um..no.

Plenty of investors loathe risk.

And while American bankers may like fleecing investors..many investors don't like getting fleeced.

True story.

Would you guys be happier if we all agreed that the nation's economy is collapsing? Just wondering.

Well yeah.

We aren't in a stock market bubble.

Stocks are over-valued, however.

I'm hoping for a 30% correction.

This is probably correct.

Especially Caterpillar.

30% is a bit much..I think.

I'm hoping for a 30% correction.

Yeah. 30% would be too steep for me, be we definitely need a correction. Anywhere between maybe 12% and 20% would give me a nice warm fuzzy feeling in my little tummy.

Shake some of the dead wood out.

[Toro]

Since 1957, we've had 10 corrections of at least 20%. That's once on average every 5.5 years. It's normal. However, the important word is "average." Sometimes, we've gone over 9 years without a 20% correction. We bottomed just over 5 years ago.

The average decline during those 10 corrections has been 25%. I'd like a 30% decline, or greater, because stocks are expensive and I'd be able to buy more.

Obama's just setting up another collapse by making the rich richer.

If they didn't create so many problems on purpose or thru their incompetence, life would be grand in America.

I remember 14 years ago when I first started posting on message boards many of the lib members actually admitted they love chaos. They get a kick out of it. (Some members here often said that what they like about Obama is "He fucks with people") Back then they didn't have a whole media conglomerate to back up the lies of Democrats. Now they just repeat whatever the media tells them to repeat, and because of that they don't have to admit they're loving the total confusion that politics has become.

We had a chance to get rid of this new Socialist World Order a couple of years ago. The powers that be weren't about to allow that to happen.

Trust me, if you think things are screwed up now, it's only going to get worse. Hillary thinks she can get away with murder. I wonder what else she wants to get away with.

That number is incorrect.

Additionally?

Bush had 14.5 million added while he was in office.

Where was your "outrage" then?

Hmm..why is it you guys are happy when Presidents like Reagan and Bush are creating extremely volatile markets through deregulation and defunding watchdogs but are up an arms when markets stabilize under Presidents like Clinton and Obama?

It just proves that you don't do math all that well.

Bush added 14.5 million in 8 years, you say, and Obama has added 16 million already in just over 5.

At the rate Obama is going Bush is going to look really, really good in comparison.

You guys constantly whine about how Bush increased the debt during his two terms. $5 trillion.

Obama did that in his first term.

Obama is twice as bad, yet you claim that if anything happened before Obama that excuses Obama, even allows him to be twice as fucked up.

That's just so childish.
