Still up 230. Regardless...it's the stock market folks. It's not reflective of the end of times as fools like Pat Robertson and Michele Bachmann seem to think.

yea, the bounce was good for part of my portfolio, but I wanted to dump the VXX before close around 27. Oh well, try again tomorrow.

Oil up huge today.
That's good news for me; I'll take it.
Gas is down but still in good shape.
I'll be happy to see $50+ but I'll have to wait till the first quarter of next year I'm afraid.

DOW finished up 369 with a late rally.
Where is Pat Robertson? Since the two day reduction was due to Planned Parenthood, this latest recovery must be due to those videos being shown as pure bunk.

Then either add a smilie, or explain that in your initial reply instead of trolling with "Bless your heart".
Apologies for missing your sarcasm. I didn't think it was that much of a stretch to believe someone seemingly entrenched in end-times philosophy to think that. Sorry.

Typical far left stereotyping and trolling of people of faith.
Made a fool of yourself again.
Whether you realize it or not, you're just in too big of a hurry to challenge a person of faith in certain situations. So much so that you missed what should have been blatantly obvious sarcasm in "the end is nigh" following yet another not surprising and basically expected market plunge.

I haven't pulled up my 401k since the first bad day. I've got six years before retirement so I'll remain calm.

I ususally check mine about twice a year with one of those times at year end to make sure the allocations still make sense. If there is a lot going on maybe I will check at the end of each quarter.

No biggie if one is properly allocated/diversified. Still a great buying opportunity.

I do not care where the Dow moves. I only care about oil prices.
I've had a rough month but the last few days were nice.

The point is that the stock market moves up and down all the time...it's not tied to any non-financial event.

And moves of a few hundred points either way are meaningless, so acting as if they do mean anything is stupid, particularly when they are going back and forth.
I'm fairly heavy in the market, primarily because there's nothing better. How much have I lost? Nothing, I haven't sold anything. My broker asked me if I wanted to do anything, I asked him, what would I do? If there's a trend, I'll move some money. But back and forth is not a trend.
