After the market sell-off yesterday, I guess I am expecting today to be a downer too.

The charts don't look good so I guess down is the direction to get used to...the O'Bama Depression gonna get fugly!

The comments, as always, are entertaining and informative.

Yeah, about that "I'm sure it's spent on food"/sarc.

Have any of you heard the ads that have started down here about the pore&starvin' kids that aren't being fed since summer's here and there's no school-fed meals, the assumption being they're not fed at home?

Welp, the market is rebounding today, imo, based on speculation that qe3 cannot be far behind. The rumors are there. Something about supposedly free money that creates interest in the market.

I don't recommend this for everyone, but I'm playing the bounce. If you have no issue shorting stocks, then buying on the downfall, there is (useless) money to be made.
I'm not always engulfed in scandals, but when I am, I make sure I blame others.

I'm probably going to buy more Exxon, every time it drops, I buy more.  It always goes up, oil is a good long play and they pay good dividends!  It's the only true equity I hold.

 I took a flyer the market would rebound today so at the end of trading yesterday I bought 2 banks....Regions(my hometown bank) and Bank of America. I also bought ARIA ( drug company which had run up before the fall) and I bought some Ford.  Today, i'll enter a stop loss on all of 'em in hopes the market contunies up tomarrow. I'm afraid of buying long term.

I really hate "investing" like this. Plus, since I'm not a daytrader, there are limits to buying and selling, if I;m not mistaken. I normally buy and hold. I guess I need to get an explanation on the rules.

For equities the rules are less tough, just check with whoever your trade through.  I have to review my rules as well, there is some other plays I am contemplating, but I want to check things out before I bite.

I am backing off on my Exxon purchase for now, oil is dropping so if there is more pullback in energy I'll wait and see what the open is like tomorrow before I pick up some more shares.

Don't worry.
There's a program for that.

They have a summer feeding program where they take food to all the playgrounds to be wasted

Here's a good column to go with it.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.
