DC Tom Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 The dow is up 700 points in the last hour! (down 1000 to down 300 at the moment) Probably because of the magic of marijuana. (There's always a 10:00-10:30 bounce. I just made a good amount of money playing it. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDBillzFan Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Oh I was just thinking that a certain poster who shall remain nameless was giving credit to Obama when the market was going up. So I just figured he should get the credit when it goes down too. He will undoubtedly be back claiming how amazing it is Obama got the Dow over 16,000.

(Chef, that's sarcasm, ok?) “Who said today’s drop is the biggest in eight years, maybe tomorrow’s is,” user Y-MariaH wrote on the Weibo microblogging site. “Now I understand why people jump from high buildings. After investing into market, I’m having that kind of urge.” Another poster, calling herself kou zi kou kou, wrote: “Stockmarket is like a cheating boyfriend.

Bob in Mich Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 as the world turns.... 9:30 pm eastern means the Chinese markets are opening Shanghai down again about 6.5% at open. U.S. futures are up by about 260 points on the Dow. The European futures are down about 5% in UK, France, and Germany. Hard to tell the leader in these circular parades.

3rdnlng Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 A question for all you geniuses: If a person or entity had access to money at no interest might they take advantage of that and invest in stocks? If many, many people or entities had the same opportunity might that cause an unnatural boost in stock prices (sometimes called a bubble)? If it appears as if the no interest money is going to be a thing of the past, might there be an inordinate amount of people/entities thinking that it is probably a good time to cash in their chips? I mean we had the Dow Jones go from 6000 to 17000 in 6 or so years. Was that because of the robust economy that didn't actually create jobs or because of free money? One of you guys should be able to explain this to me. How about you gator? You seem to be really dialed in on the swell market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

truth on hold Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Then there's this: Harbinger Man: 'The time is now to prepare' Author and Bible teacher Jonathan Cahn says he has been so swamped with questions and concerns about the looming end of the Shemitah year on Sept. 13 that he cant answer them all. We have been deluged with people calling, emailing, asking questions from all over the country, wanting to know whats happening. So we decided to put out a video, Cahn told WND via email. In the message, posted to YouTube, Cahn calls for a period of national prayer and repentance leading up to the pivotal month of September. He also issued a new warning about a desecration that often precedes judgment and is already present in American society. He calls for Christians to prepare for persecution and get ready to stand for God in a coming period of strife that will increasingly be devoid of gray areas or middle ground. In the video, he says his main theme continues to be that of judgment visiting America. This will bring a shaking in the financial and economic realms. These tremors may spread beyond the economic realm. http://mobile.wnd.com/2015/08/harbinger-man-the-time-is-now-to-prepare/#gIbHULg8b894yxlV.99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
