Stocks go up. Stocks go down.

Correlating the stock prices of Health Insurance Industry to health care legislation, well, is stupid.

The market is at a 52-week high as well. Using the same logic, I can argue that the Health Insurance industry stocks are up because of the economic stimulus plan.

Apple is near its 52-week high as well. Did Congress pass some laws about iPods?

This entire point has been refuted many times in better ways here at this site. Why do people insist on regurgitating this failure of logic?

1. You're right, theres no correlation between trillions to banks & bank stock prices

2. Markets do well when uncertainty is removed.

Looking at any insurance stock moving upwards, it would more likely be attributed to the certainty of what is coming, rather than the industries expectations.

4. Uncertainty is often a profitable condition for traders and can push a stock

in either direction.

5. Agreed

Any movement in stock prices today would be just as certain to occur if HCR had been defeated.
