      ACORN pressured
      banks to make loans to people
      without enough income to
      pay their home payments.
      ACORN threatened to sue
      banks that did not make the
      unsafe loans.
      That is a large part
      of the Wall Street collapse.
      .
      Who in this Presidential
      race used to work for ACORN?
      It was not John McCain!

      And then rebounded to positive numbers, but spread more fear Perez , it's what the media does.

      ALSO REMEMBER ITS A 3 DAY WEEKEND BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY. SO THERE IS TIME FOR THINGS TO COOL OFF. OCTOBER HAS NEVER BEEN A GOOD MONTH FOR THE STOCK MARKET. BOTH THE DEPRESSION AND 87 CRASH WERE IN LATE OCTOBER. BLACK MONDAY 10-19-1987. BLACK THURSDAY 10-24-1929.

      NOW FOR THE FUN FUN FUN POLITICS OF THIS SITUATION…IF NOT FOR DEMOCRATS AND THEIR "EVERYONE DESERVES A HOUSE AND MORTGAGE" RHETORIC THIS PROLLY WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED. WHEN SOMEONE WHO ONLY MAKES 35K A YEAR TAKES A NOTE ON A 300K HOME…WHAT ARE THE ODDS OF THEM BEING ABLE TO PAY IT OFF?? WHAT HAPPENS TO THE NOTE ON THE HOUSE THAT BANKS SELL BETWEEN EACHOTHER? IT BECOMES WORTHLESS CAUSE THE GUY WHO ISN'T PAYING ON HIS MORTGAGE MAKES THE WHOLE CHAIN OF PAPER TAINTED. SO…THEN THE CREDIT LINES DRY UP THEN BANKS FAIL…THEN THE MARKET LOSES 20% OF ITS VALUE….JUST LIKE THIS WEEK.

      NOW THE FINAL NUMBER FOR THE DOW TODAY IS -128.00 WHICH IS A DAMN SIGHT BETTER THAN THE -600. IT WAS AT 2PM

      Re: vengance – Democrats didn't force people to buy homes they cannot afford. It was a choice made by INDIVIDUAL MORONS.

      I'M BUYING A SHITLOAD OF STOCK IN EXPLOSIVE DIARRHEA MEDICATION!

      It would appear that the past 7 days have gone a long way toward flushing out the faint of heart. I wouldn't be surprised if things don't start to turn around soon. When the dollars from the bailout begin to flow, we should see the market start to turn the corner. I even heard Kelsey Grammer say he's looking at the market as a buying opportunity (not that he's an expert but he went on to say he got out of the market in July - foresight?). Hopefully the fear will pass and clearer heads will emerge.
