my point was that - not everyone shares the optimism. It was the FIRST TIME IN 113 YEARS THAT THE DOW WENT DOWN ON INNAUGRATION DAY.

It made headelines to that FACT. I shared the fact. I made ZERO commentary other than Obamas speech did not change the markets. It was noted MANY, MANY times that when Bush spoke, the markets went down, I guess I can't say that about Obama......


so NF, please tell me I voiced "my opinion"? You are INCORRECTLY interpeting my posts that Obama made the markets go down. that was not my point at all.

I can see now what I'm dealing with here.... So headlines equal fact?.... And you really believe that Bush remarks actually had as much effect on the markets as the talking heads would have you believe?... Misinformation disseminated by the media, amongst others, has both made and lost billions.

I should have known better than to pass through the political forum... I just don't believe in posts to restate what I meant to say in a previous post, nor hide behind edited posts. While not saying that is what RIJ is doing, it is clear to me what the tone of his initial, unedited posts were meant to be. No upside to be gained through these type of "discussions", as they mostly evolve into an exchange of insults. I'm outta here.

huh? I never edited my original post. Look at the proof before you make a lame accusation, I edited my post before ANYONE responded as I added more content. When you're able to have an intelligent discussion, please come back. And BTW, yes politicians comments DO directly affect the market.
