guys, election day, please vote for me http://stockcharts.com/public/1684859/tenpp

Come on Cobra, you're going to lose big: your health policy is disastrous (you work far too much), in regard to the Renminbi you are much too China friendly, we never saw your wife sitting in the "View", the birthers say you were not born in the US, your diet is very special and cannot be commented here, the only wars you fight are cyberwars and the American public wants to see fighterplanes and defence jobs - no way Cobra, you are going to lose big

I like that;
GW Bush -16%
OB +27%
WOW!!!!

hmm probably doesn't have much to do with the fact the market had declined about 40% the twelve months heading into Obama's election, and Bush took over at the height of the tech bubble...

I believe this market is pricing in a Romney victory. If Obama wins, we might rally tomorrow, but after that, this market is heading south. I haven't heard a single leftist in this forum proclaim he's going all long if Obama wins.

Just curious, has "leftist" replaced "liberal" and the slur du jour for the Right-wing? If only you guys were as good at governing as naming things, we might one day actually get a decent right wing stock market.

This is an AAPL driven market. Too much AAPL profit taking, and AAPL has too large of a % of the market-cap weighted indices.

That's funny. AAPL looks nothing like QQQ, SPY, DOW, ETC

Let's not get into political discussions, because I can sit here and talk about how Obama is a more ethical and intelligent leader thinking about having a better future for our country and how Romney is calculating, devious and will only act on issues that will improve "his" bottom line, whether that means shipping jobs to China or overseas, while hurting our country in the process...but I won't do that...let's get down to business....

Don't want to get into this, but please know that Bush didn't "take over" (great choice of words) at "the height of the tech bubble." NAZ peaked in March 2000. GW became POTUS Jan '01.

"don't want to get into this" immediately followed by getting into it. classic. we all know you love big O; you've made that abundantly clear for a long time. and in similar fashion, spend more time caring about words than substance. apologies for typing too fast while i hold down a real job on the side - is this better for you: "Bush assumed the role of President 15% from the market peak and still up 192% over the prior 6 years" ?
there, i feel much better that i've got all the words straight. now, which UAW chapter can i send my next bailout check to?

EDIT: you know what? Forget it. This will all be over in a day or two.....

TZA finding support...

[Me XMan]

Interesting...I'm going shorts.

I'm going all long if Obama wins

[Me XMan]

Broke down below the line ain't looking good. Holding shorts still.

not sure if we can read it as double top. I'm just a little bit bearish biased here.

[skittlesmds]

I thought this forum was for Markets and TA. It seems I am on the Politics forum.

[Cobra]

channel bottom, hopefully a rebound here. I'm neutral.

This economy is crap and the world is hurting because of a weak US. The right-wingers aren't in charge, you lefties are.

Saw that yesterday. Cracked me up.

That looks like a bear flag on IWM, looks just like AAPL's

hahaha touche

there is nothing to touche about...even if I think Obama is the better person, the better president...the better leader...it doesn't mean I like unions...they 'f' up the jobs in this country...too much pay for non-educated workers drive up prices for goods, less competitive with other countries, etc, etc, I could go on and on, but I won't because Romney sends our jobs overseas rather than attempting to fix the problem...so would you rather have ethics and standards and someone who attempts to look out for the people of this country, or a lying, cheating, sob that couldn't give a "sh!#" about you or anyone else but himself....???

[Cobra]

hopefully a very tiny double bottom here.

Man, this day cannot get over fast enough. I assume by "the economy" you mean GDP.
