I cant see how this wont affect everyone.All I keep thinking is gas prices going up,food prices going up.
Very bad.Very bad.

The US markets will barely shudder. That's how it always seems to go. The more logical it seems that they will tank, the more likely they are to just dawdle around with a ~50 point loss or something. I am so sick of waiting for people to come to their senses.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('deeciduous', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('jboogy', 'I') caught Cramer on CNBC talking about all the insurers going belly up, scary stuff. I watched the news tonight to see if anyone was talking about the other markets tanking and not nary a peep, but I don't subscribe to fox news or msnbc so maybe they said something, anderson cooper was all presidential candidates, ( big surprise ), local news zippo. Link TV had english language German news program " journal " and the markets were the top, big story. Nothin' in this country though, is this a great country or what?

Dax just opened 5% lower

[spear]

The bottom line is,someone is going to take it up the ass today and it isnt going to be me.
Athens down 5 percent already and it just opened 45 minutes ago.

[Bas]

DOW loses 415 points in first two minutes.

[Plantagenet]

The Dow is currently down about 150 points , or about 1.3%.

Not a good day, but so far not too bad considering the magnitude of the two days of big sell-offs that just happened in Asia and Europe.

[Bas]

well, Europe is firmly in the back in the black now, as opposed to red ink.

[spear]

Yeah until tonight when Asian markets open.

[jasonraymondson]

I am so freaking disapointed. Let down again.

I want me fucking crash and I want it now.

[Bas]

I shorted the market big time with my UpDown fantasy stock market account.

I've lost more than 5% in one day.

What I see : I have everything I want in terms of modern comfort, no air conditioner, no car, - no intention to get them. But the rest I have, a computer, phone, clothes, stuff.

I do not need anything else, so I buy very little, almost nothing, mostly food, that is why this system will go down, people do not really need what is produced, and they keep producing stuff in huge quantities, maybe they hope people will change their old stuff, or maybe new people will buy ?, it's a stupid money system

[big_rc]

This bounce we are seeing here is complete nonsense. Factor in the raging inflation that this 3/4% cut is going to cause and the DOW is tanking right now. This is all bullshit, smoke and mirrors.

Bush is working damn hard right now not to keep the economy going down the tubes on his watch. I feel for the next president. He/she will have hell to pay and possibly a depression to manage due to the moves being played out right now.
