Is the market even open yet?????

Our economy is a MUCH BIGGER issue. The Ebola "scare" is just another fear tactic to keep America's mind off of the real issues. And it works EVERY time.

Agreed! When you have almost 40% of the work force still out of work and disposable income is disappearing for lower tax brackets, you can not expect it to recover in the short term.

Open..down 150....

So what are they citing as the cause?

 

[deltex1]

Below 16000...

Sales numbers primarily...slump in Europe, slump in China..

 

[deltex1]

Gamblers now realizing low interest rates will return with more QE...market recovering. Greed is good.

There hasn't been a change in the economy that warranted the price run ups this year the way they have been anyways.

I work for a company that used to give a pretty decent wage increase annually but we've only been getting a 2% or 3% increase the past few years while the cost of living has been increasing (overall) by much more. So, in essence, we've been taking a cut in pay each year based on the lower buying power.

It wasn't the CDC operating that hospital, it was private enterprise.

In March of 2009, as a result of the genius of the great GOP, the market was below 6550. What we are seeing now is a correction. Once that is over, probably with a 10% loss, it will be on it's way up again.

When I was a boy, we had 60,000 cases of polio. 3000 deaths. That was 1952. Everybody knew somebody that had a child crippled with that disease. A vaccine was developed, and that disease is almost totally wiped out in the US. And here we have our 'Conservatives' in a total panic about a disease that has thus far infected two, and kill one, here in the US. If the Canadians have not already beat us to it, we will develop a vaccine, and that will be that for that disease.
