Dow Closes Above 9000 for the first time in 2 months

Usually it's a good sign when the market shrugs off bad news like today's, and holds above a psychological threshold.

I agruuuuu...I mean I agruueuuua!!....what i mean to say is I agreuuuee!!!...I can't get my fingers to type that I agr-- with stevejhx.....yes steve, the fear/panic is gone.

All I know is, Steve, you had BETTER NOT SAY THE DOW WILL GO UP!

;-)

btw, you did notice that the dow closed above 9k on friday too, right?

dammit, told you steve! Don't saying anything good about the market anymore...

Damn steve, you made the market fall today. Shame on you.

you made my hrp drop...dog gone it!

ok, its official. We're down nearly 10% since steve got bullish.

Steve, can you please be bearish on stocks again? I'd love if if you said that the dow was "definitely heading toward 6500" again.

Pretty please?

The S&P bank index is at the moment, trading below the panic November lows.

Not sure about the rest of you nice folks, but I'm getting more bullish by the minute. :)

> The S&P bank index is at the moment, trading below the panic November lows.

True... but there are also a few less banks now... and now the panic fears have come true...
No more panic, its reality now. ;-)

But, I'm with you on the bullish overall... I'm starting to pick up some SSOs again.

Let's get on the train to 6500... you heard it again.. .here comes TARP 2.0 and wait till the end of the year for GM BK and 10-11% unemployment... no need to be looking for a bottom in this market... go to Tahiti for a year and learn to surf... you'll miss nothing.. that's what I'd do.. but darn these kids need to be fed every 6 hours :)

Steve... PRETTY PLEASE...

SAY THE MARKET WILL GO DOWN!

just dipped below 8000 for the first time in awhile.

surprised that when that happened, it didn't jump downward... but it seems to have "bounced" for now. That could be a positive sign.

w67, 2009-2010 are the most appealing years for going off the grid in a long time.

Almost 100 off the bounce... GO! GO!

a few hundred points now... we're up. Go...

Love those SSOs.

damn you, steve!

;-)

80sMan... yep.. .get off grid.. .people please just move along... nothing to see here.

Yep... the kids still need to be fed :)

w67, I'm enjoying your precocious schadenfreude. Now that the bond rally is over there's nothing to do but wait...

Ah, remember the last time we were at Dow 6500, I was President

I guess you are all financial geniuses as well
