57. Any guesses where the BS stops? Mine is still around 850 on the S&P
Although the S&P could go to 1000 and still be in a clear downtrend. Anyone else notice how it traded today: move up with no pullback, floats for 3 hours then moves up again; that's the way a rigged/propped market trades. Our population is so brainwashed it easily swallows Geithner's so-called plan to magically make bank frauds disappear, especially when the markets are manipulated by the same propaganda machine that got Geithner into his position to begin with.

As worn out as the FDR comparisons are, Obama's efforts will all be just a continuation of the deregulation era fraud until, like FDR, he removes all people connected to banks from his administration.
