When is the last time the Dow went below 9900?
Any chance of a significant crash before the election?

3. Not a chance of a significant crash
In fact, I sincerely doubt the Dow will be permitted to close below 9500 for more than one day in the next 3 weeks.

After that, who cares? Not Idiot.

Expect to see the Dow go down no matter who is elected. Also expect gas prices to go up, way up, along with heating oil and natural gas.

In fact, expect to compete with the far east for fuel as well as jobs, just don't expect to be charged far east prices for your food, shelter, clothing and medical care.

4. For some reason, I have the sense that the
house of cards will soon collapse. I don't think the current levels are based on value, but rather fuzzy accounting and massive layoffs that result in fattening the bottom line.

The variables are oil prices, foreign investment, strength of the dollar and political instability. What are the chances that Monkey Boy will hit the trifecta again? In some ways, I hope he wins so that Republicans will held responsible for the damage they have caused when the chickens eventually come home to roost.

5. If he wins
you will be under martial law at best and in a concentration camp at worst.
