Default Wall Street Gamblers Still in Panic Mode

The DOW is below 10,000 as the gamblers on Wall Street panic, at least in part as a response to the so-called bailout.

Market Dispatches - MSN Money

Wall Street may actually reject the bailout because of the limitations on executive pay: Scalding: Wall St. may reject bailout!

The markets around the world are apparently all feeding on each other. Wall Street then Europe and Asia then Wall Street again, ad infinitum ad nauseum.

Let the whole thing just crash and burn!

"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."

I disagree. They don't have a tail to tell their children but they may have a tale to tell their children.

LOL, we aren't even close to the bottom. 7700 to 8500 is very possible. But hey.. I said it here and in 2 weeks when we get there.. Affrayer will claim it.

Someone on Glenn Beck's show this evening predicted the price of gold and the DOW will reach the same level.

It's good to see someone call it what it is: nationally legalized gambling. Wall Street is one big Casino.

Nor should it.

Let Wall Street crash, let the people who took out loans for more than they could really afford fail.
