Obama Era Marked by Steep, Continuing Stock Market Declines

The president controls the government ? Since when ?

 

No, JustChristian, it's not at all ridiculous and OldRegular is correct! Market price is greatly effected by what people perceive the future has in store. The confidence has been decreasing since it was known Obama would be President and since he, along with the Obamanites in Congress, have started to implement their socialism for America. Obama's recent suggestion that we buy stocks was nothing more than his own regonition that confidence is falling by everything he'd said and done previously.

 

OK, the republicans had control of all three branches of government. But who's the head of the government? I'd say the president. Who would you say?

 

The president, who presided over a democrat congress after 2006 ? Is that the one you say was in charge of the government ? When did the DOW begin to fall, before the dem takeover, or after ?

 

Wow, Curtis, that is a VERY good point I hadn't thought about before. You're right!!!:applause:

 

Well, Boys and Girls

Speakin' of the stock exchange---and junk like that-------over the course of the past 6 months I have lost over 1/2 of my retirement invested in the Southern Baptist Convention's GuideStone-----it has taken me 20 years to save---and in the past 6 months---I've lost over 10 years worth of investments

I don't even want to think about what my next quarterly statement is gonna look like

Long story short----I don't look for a quick recovery in the NYSE ----- on the dark side---now I don't think I will ever be able to retire-----on the bright side---I don't WANT to retire from preaching!!!
