Respite Tuesday

The monster decided to sleep today. After devouring securities like they were rice cakes, he was satiated and slept. We can safely unlock our doors till Wednesday morning.

Wall Street had a itty bitty run today with the DOW gaining 236 points and the S&P gaining almost 30 points. When investors see incredibly sturdy and well established companies with stocks at below bargain basement prices, they go shopping.

They say its all because of Bernacke's 10 a.m. speech in which he spoke of non nationalization and a potentially long recovery.

No shit! I hope Ben is telling the truth. We've all had enough phony PR from DC and Wall ST. WE need clarity and truth to get through this not more HR rah rah.
