    Seriously though. The president has very little to do with market fluctuations long term. Short term, yes the markets are extremely volatile. Was today caused by Obama.. Probably a big chunk, but overall in 1 to 2 years, the market will have rebounded whether McCain or Obama or the 2 yr old down the street was in power.
    +1

    The exit polls said people voted more for Obama because they thought he would be better for the economy. Its a fair question to ask why did the stock go down after the people got what they wanted. Could it be Obama is going to raise taxes giving less money to the people to spend? I think so.

    Stock is not going to raise for sometime consistently. Its crazy they did not raise one lousy day after the savior of USA economy was elected President. Its a statement, money talks bull walks. Raising taxes will not be the answer and raising taxes is what Obama will do and says he will do.

    Again they will not go up consistently anytime soon.They will not go up especially if our Goverment will raise taxes. Our Goverment is run by the Democratic party for the next two years headed by Obama. It would have been a great sign if the stock went up today even knowing it was just BULL .

    Optimism? Thats what Obama's sold the American people. Both partys (republican and democratic) and selfish business people caused this fall. We just elected a President with no expiernence in hopes he can fix our country. Number one on the list...Economy. Its a small tale, a sign that things will not change anytime soon.

    The same people here who blamed the entire market collapse on Bush are now trying to say it has nothing to do with Obama being elected.

    Make up your ing minds.

    there has been a lot of disappointing financial news the past couple of weeks, but that hasn't stopped the market from going up. again, focusing attention on short-term gyrations is ridiculous, but please don't try to politicize this market.

    Name those people and address them instead of making vague generalizations. Also its pretty funny that you equate the collapse of the financial sector with one day of stocks going down.

    Are you kidding me? Politics dictate our laws. Our Goverment decides the laws of our country. When our country elects a President that has no expierence to run our country, no senate or house to say "NO" for the next 2 years, you better look at every day.

    One day of the Dow and NASDAQ falling doesn't = market collapse. Go back to business school.

    It just fricking amazes me that the idiot sheep who voted idiot Bush in are already complaining when Obama has yet to serve one day in office. They act as if though our country has been doing great for the past 8 years when it's been run into the ground by idiot Bush and his cronies, who had to take us into an unnecessary war and helped tank our economy. They complain Obama doesn't have the experience--just look at idiot Bush and what a lousy-ass job he did!!! The Republicans controlled the presidency and Congress for 6 of last 8years--at least try to take some responsibility for the good AND the bad!!!

    Sheep? The election was not Obama vs Bush, It was McCain vs Obama. Thats a Obama line. "4 more years of Bush". Responsiblity? Both party's voted for the war. Our economy tanked because our country was stupid. For you to think either party was responsible makes you the idiot. If you think for one second our economy will recover with Obama increasing taxes you are sadly wrong.
