It's funny that this idiot is posting the stock market as it relates to the economy. Because seriously, if the stock market is an end all indicator about the current economic crisis, I would like *Just the Facts, Please*

Now shut the fuck up and stop clogging the board with your tired bullshit.

Since I don't have the internet, I enjoy the streaming ticker he provides.
 
What are the December pork bellies going for?

Hog futures settled .18 cent to the limit of 1.5 cents lower in Chicago, with the contract for delivery in December at 51.45 cents a pound; frozen pork bellies were 1.95 cents to the limit of 2 cents lower, with February at 60.95 cents a pound.
 
Busybody better call his office. Bonds rule the day!

As usual, Johnny is the smartest one in the room.

With no solution in sight for Europe and new fears of a global recession, investors dumped stocks and commodities and ran to the safety of U.S. Treasurys.

On Thursday, yields on the benchmark 10-year Treasury were well below the 2% level. Prices on the 10-year note were last up by 26/32, diluting the yield to 1.779%. The 30-year bond rose 2 21/32, lowering the yield to 2.872% while prices on the 2-year note were down 0/32, with a yield of 0.207%.
 
"People are finding it really isn't gold. It isn't precious metals. It's not currencies. U.S. Treasurys are where people are flocking to at a time of extreme concern about risk, and we continue to see Treasurys continue to get bid up," said Zane Brown, fixed income strategist at Lord Abbett.
 
Hmmm. Republicans threaten to shut down the government. . . .stock market falls.

It's OBAMA's fault!

Honestly at this point I don't care I'm tired and the trolls can have it. Is there a Constitutional way for us to disolve the USA cus clearly we have gotten to the point where the left and right are so far apart that we can no longer compromise.

"The Fed will have to go on a publicity tour over the next few weeks, coming out and stating what is the metric by which they will judge this as a success or failure," said Kevin Ferry of Cronus Futures.

"The metrics we look at—the financial conditions index—it's worse today," Ferry said. Spreads on a whole range of credit market indicators widened, including investment grade corporates, emerging market sovereigns, high-yield corporates, and municipal bonds.

What exactly is too complicated for you to understand. I guess I'll break it down into steps.

Step 1: Republicans threaten to shut down the government. This happened not to long ago with debt limit and it happened again last night when the house didn't pass another resolution. The result on the market both times was immediate, drastic and negative. In fact we were still working on digging ourselves out of that hole when this happened.

Step 2: The rush to blame Obama.

Step 3: I'm tired. I don't see any point in trying to negotiate with guys who are so determined to see Democrats fail that they would do this twice in the same year rather than find a way to move forward. I'm curious if there is a Constitutional way to just say fuck it, we vote draw new lines and have new countries. It's really hard to run a race when your partner is simply hugging your leg so you have to drag it with the other leg instead of running.
