    You talk about Bush being a moron? Look at yourself first.
    The Federal reserve is independant. Bush nor congress controls it.
    You talk about an illegal war. The Democrat MAJORITY funds the war, not Bush.

    Iraq War spending = high budget deficits = weak dollar = expensive oil. BTW, the fanatics who attacked us were from Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia.

    The math is not partisan. The timeline is not partisan. Bush/Cheney policies got us into this mess.

    Another important point was touched on. We've lost more Americans and spent more money in Iraq than we lost on 9/11/2001. So what "message" did we send to the world; that no one can hurt us more than we can hurt ourselves? Yeah, that'll show 'em!     Reply

    Options trader was wrong yesterday (7/1) and he is wrong most of the time. Reason: He blames BUSH for everything thre market and dollar value does. (Surely he didn't knoew any of the 3000 people who were killed on (9-11). Face it, you can not follow the script of partisan clap rap and invest wisely. Reply

    I don't know of a proper Dow study. The S&P routinely changes components too and the Russell just rebalanced but with the Dow just having 30 components, you really can't just go pretending it doesn't matter when you trade 2 in, especially with their whacked out weighting system - that in itself could have used an extensive study to figure out what the hell they did.

    I would understand the lack of action by the government if the situation was insoluble, but it isn't. It just takes firm action and some vision. Unfortunately, those are things we are very short of in our government.

    I am disgusted by the lack of action by our government. The housing industry is screwed and nothing is going to change that. The Fed must shore up the dollar by raising rates 1/2 a point and buyng dollars. THIS will send oil down and the stock market up. Otherwise we are going to be screwed both in housing and stocks and really be in trouble. BUSH should be in prison... bot just for al lthe lies, illegal war, but stupidity as well: the moron just sent the dollar into further decline the other day.

    What accident at the South Carolina plant for Boeing? This has not been reported nor does it reflect in the stock at this point. Reply

    Energy Independance: Carter killed nuclear, Clinton gutted the military and taxed us to death, G W Bush using the best info available took on Sadam but could not find his stash of WMD.

    Are we any better off ? Iran would love to take over Iraq in a heartbeat and with the oil they already have even our military couldn't fill the tank in a tank.

    Skip ahead to November: IF we can turn it around in Iraq Israel stays on the map, the price of oil drops below $100 /bl , the middle east cools off, no more twintowers, we drill where we need to, we use wind, nuclear, coal, geothermal, hydro, tidal, solar, biofuel where they're profitable and we move away from oil as fast as we can (decades).

    Good comment on Dow component substitution. Technically, past years' Dow data should be recast using substituted components. Is there such a study? Reply

    Prudent man is not all wrong. Take a look at who was running congress in those years of R presidential profligacy. The current massive deficit can be traced back to the vote that took place in November of 2001 in which other people entirely decided how America and the world would spend their money in the next decade. A few disasters and a couple of wars later with loose money to float all the effort - well, here we are. Reply

    Hardhead - I would love it if you have links to that GS action.

    Prudent, I think you may be mixed up (understandable at your age), Hoover was a Republican, Roosevelt was a Democrat who cleaned up the mess. Nixon/Ford sent this country into a financial crisis, Carter tried to reign in the madness and was quickly replaced by even the even greater spending madness of Reagan/Bush the 1st, who were Republicans who oversaw the first major debt expansion and the S&L crisis. Cinton was the Democrat who cut spending and raised the country out of the gutter.

    The Republicans haven't been the party of restraint since Lincoln and they shot him and then the "radical republicans of Congress" tried to impeach him for violating an act they passed while he was President. They replaced him with Grant, who was the puppet president who ushered in the age of carpet-bagging and created a financial crisis through greed and exploitation that was so excessive that the Republicans were voted out of power in his second term. Sound familiar?

    Also familiar was the "Black Friday" crisis under Grant in his first term where gold speculators wrecked the markets while Grant waited for thier OK to "fix" the markets. Another good one pulled under Grant was the "Whiskey Ring" in which over $3M in taxes were stolen by high government officials. The leader of the gang was pardoned by Grant.

    There were MANY other sickening abuses of our democracy under Grant - he was the template for the modern Republican administrations you worship today, a puppet leader controlled from behind the curtain by the powers that be...

    Junkyard - I agreee. I wrote an article called "Burn Dollars to Fight Gravity" pretty much on that subject and predicted this would be the policy the administration would pursue under Paulson back when they first picked him. I just never imagined they would push things this far!

    Unfortunately, oil is the only "safe-looking&quo... place to put money with everything else melting down.

    Don't even get me started on Cheney Rono!

    Tech's Most Popular CEOs [view article]
    Folks - Check out this website www.thesmartpro.org which is pretty much the same without the unwanted details. How many employees want to know the approval rating of the CEO before deciding to accept the offer?

    Smartpro is neat, it classifies the responses under categories that are important and relevant to employees. It’s free and not for profit!

    It does not have millions of dollars to promote like Glassdoor but is quietly aiming to provide newletters, jobs, reviews, ratings, industry benchmarks et al. All for free.

    check it out at www.thesmartpro.org
