Default Markets On The Rise/ Employment On The Rise

Dow up near 500+ today, also reports employment on steady rise. Looks like Obama's plan is working as scheduled.

So does that mean if it drops 500 tomorrow then Obama is responsible for that as well? Or is that still Bush's fault?

Yeah. A few more days like this and it'll be up to where it was before Obamabidenpelosi started playing scare tactics with the economy.

Just like a liberal, if spending on programs don't increase to the level the Dems want, it's a cut. If employment continues to drop under a Dem president, it's rising employment number! Hey even three states today reported double digit levels now.

THE EMPLOYMENT SITUATION: FEBRUARY 2009

Nonfarm payroll employment continued to fall sharply in February (-651,000),
and the unemployment rate rose from 7.6 to 8.1 percent, the Bureau of Labor
Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported today. Payroll employ-
ment has declined by 2.6 million in the past 4 months. In February, job
losses were large and widespread across nearly all major industry sectors.

Unemployment (Household Survey Data)

The number of unemployed persons increased by 851,000 to 12.5 million in
February, and the unemployment rate rose to 8.1 percent. Over the past 12
months, the number of unemployed persons has increased by about 5.0 million,
and the unemployment rate has risen by 3.3 percentage points. (See table
A-1.)
I'm not holding my breath for this to work. The level at which Obama has been attacking anyone or any company is unheard of. It's unfortunate Obama sees a friend when looking at a terrorist and an enemy when looking at a business man.

Do you think it's a good idea?

I'm guessing that it will fall again when he speaks at his press conference on Tuesday.

I'd love for it to go back up. Unfortunately, there's really little to be happy about except existing home sales, and even that isn't proof positive we're turning a corner. Paul Krugman, who is left of center, is highly critical of Geithner's plan, calling it "hokus pokus." Felix Zulauf, famed investor, called the bear market rally, saying before the upturn the S&P could go to 900 beginning in March before falling 50% to the 400's by 2011. I didn't get in on the uptick because it got underway before I could pull the trigger, and I get a little skittishbetting on the market one way, when I think it will end up the other. I hope to GOD we ARE in a recovery period, as we will all be better off for it. For now, I'm accumulating silver, gold and more silver as I can afford it. I'm still in the camp with Peter Schiff, Michael Panzner, Felix Zulauf, visionvictory, Marc Faber, Nouriel Roubiniand Jim Rogers, among others, who say now is the time for capital preservation, and that the downside risk is extremely high as Obama's mulitples-of-Bush spending and programs take hold.
