4. The writer made sure to season the report with the traditionally volatile month comment

Tell me which month is not volatile so I can sell my stocks that month.

It's all a damn game when they tell you what the months activity is going to be like before the month starts.

7. This is how it works

Bad economic news = Gospel Truth

Good economic news = only the rich benefit; it's all fake numbers and cooked books; "yes, but what the numbers don't say is that..."

14. Maybe it's because the real ECONOMY is what is written on

your pay check not where the DOW is today!

8. Ridiculous. Repeat after me

The stock market is not the economy, the stock market is not the economy...

12. Is that like how one cold winter's day disproves global warming?

I thought I'd have to go to FreeRepublic to see this kind of logic failure where one day's rise in stocks = WE'RE ALL SAVED! :eyes:

13. The uber wealthy are happy.

Nice to know our corporate masters are doing well. Keep us posted.

Now, if I could only find a job to feed my family.
