Nice profit on a Friday long...I still think it has a chance to go up, and I may miss out (usually do) but I play my plan and I got most of what I was aiming for

P.S. Since I got out you will probably see about a 300 pip gain...I'm not bitter though LOL...

Where are those who told me Europes picture looks much rosier, in the long run Europe is finished.
"The U.S. government rescued giant insurer American International Group in part because its collapse would dramatically hurt European banks, a senior Democratic lawmaker said on Thursday."

Thanks for the article Lloyd. I appreciate it.

However, I'm just wondering why would the United States be so concerned about Europe's welfare at a time when they hardly can look after their own.

The United States usually looks after their own interests.

Seems to me like an underhanded attempt to divert the attention from the U.S. problems to Europe's.

And Europe is saying "Hey, at least we're not America", what's your point?

That's an amazingly short sighted view for someone with "both eyes on it". Especially since dumping 180 billion into this bottomless black hole (AIG) in an attempt to help multiple economies puts our grandchildren in debt before they are even born!

It's a real shame the European like LIBERALS in the US are in charge now and for whatever reason, feel your ever failing model is better than ours.

In comes the proverbial bull in the china shop.

Bailing out AIG is no Marshall plan and it's no direct bailout by the U.S. government of any European institution.

So my question remains. Why is it portrayed as such?

The U.S. government is going to the media saying "we're doing this to help out Europe". The Eurozone has an economy roughly the size of the United States but without big daddy U.S.A., Europe is doomed? Would Europe become the U.S. taxpayer's hero if they told the U.S., "don't bail them out, we'll be okay"? Somehow, I think that even if Europe was to plead and beg to let AIG go south, the U.S. government would still prop them up. So who's interest is it really serving?

And I don't know what you mean by "your" ever failing model. Another person jumping to conclusions as to where I live.

And when Obama doesn't succeed at turning us into what the rest of the world wants us to be, what then? Because your post sounde like a threat..LOL.


P.S. Can this break 1.2685? Seemed that was a point of resistance.

we'll see he's barely stepped foot in office. so far i'm not real impressed either but there is some chance. the US and some of the path's the country has taken has made the outlook grimmer than it should be.
it will be a mountain to get over. hopefully Obama won't be the final nail in the coffin. nevertheless what ever happens can't be blamed on him unless he leads us into a wwIV or an outright governmental society. obviously their are better paths to be taken.. i don't think these are his intentions. nationalization may be good if it's short term and the banks are turned back over to private entities. we'll see i'm not as optimistic as i sound but there's still realistic chances and hope for better outcomes. warren buffet doesn't seem afraid to invest but of course he has nothing to loose with that kind of wealth. long term we will have to see into 2010 and beyond what happens with what kind of jobs are created and how much the government tries to control things. if the government tries to create better conditions and wealth i'm all for it but taxing and restricting investment won't be good.

well... it is not my opinion ... it is what it was during the last days of bush administration... world was very frustrated in general... you could see it everyday in the news. Things could change now... but it is difficult.

going to have dinner... have a nice market opening and week.
