If that ain't a recovery, I don't know what is.

If that ain't a recovery, I don't know what is.

The fact that unemployment is so high, wages are so low and government assistance is at record levels, and still the Dow is testing all time highs is proof enough that it's all a paper game. Remember, during Zimbabwe's money printing & inflation era of '08-'09, they had the best performing stock market in the world.

I pay no attention to what the market is doing but rather how the people are doing........we are in a depression.

Besides, the only ones that are "investing" are those trying to bring in more suckers.

Money making money with it's self, and not off what is being produced and growth.

Every big wig worth their salt is Hauling @$$ for the exits dumping insider shares at level that has never been seen in the lifetime of stock investing.

The only reason why it hasnt imploded is because the illusion is so strong.

But Reality is Coming and its riding on a Pale Horse.

Buckle up and get what the hell you can cause with it hits......... it will be the shot that is heard around the world

Just 20 points from a record high!

Today is the day!

Thanks to Fed for giving the rich all the money to buy up the stock market and for the government for backing all these no money down home loans with taxpayer's on the hook for them.
We couldn't have such a great recovery without them.

They will be spraying these all over today

So when things look bad it means the market is going much higher?
This is a great time to take out a "no money down" home loan and borrow cheap money to buy stocks on margin!
What's the worst that can happen if things go south?...hand over the keys to the home and file bankruptcy.
Tax payers will be there to cover the losses.
