How will the Market React when the vote is taken?

Poll question: How will the Market React when the vote is taken?

The bailout vote in the House will take place this afternoon. How do you think the market will react?

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

1. Initially or long term(6-12 months)?

ETA:

I'll take it that you mean initially. Bailout will pass and the market will rise.

Then in a few weeks we'll be back to square one, only with half a trillion in debt on the books.

3. The rest of today ...

And then we get to see the same thing again tomorrow when the Senate follows suite.

2. the market will rise immedidately, just on the news. BUT

there are still deep problems that will have to be dealt with or it will eventually collapse. We have to recognize the unregulated Trickle-Down Supply Side trash as the garbage it is and return to perculate-up Keynesian economics with consumer protections.

4. It'll pass, and the banks won't lend.

5. Not hard to figure out

If the bill passes the market will jump.
If it doesn't pass the market will drop.

6. We will know with certainty in just a few minutes

7. very short-term rise, or at least stability

but within a week or two, the inevitable move toward collapse will resume.

this system is vast and is built on nothing. nothing. reality bites.
