I really thought he was going to take the country to the brink. We would get a 3-5% move on the Dow. I sweep in for a quick gainer. Stocks are telling me there is a deal. Now does Boehner keep his speakership?

Fed Chair appointment may have had a role in this too.

So you lost a hundred bucks. You should put the good of the country ahead of your personal gain.

In reality 1000's but I get your point.

Boehner cost you nothing. This what happens when you gamble. Sometimes you win...most times you lose. Mach..Please tell me you are not trying to time the market.

I just went all cash on Tuesday or Wednesday. I just didn't see a breakthrough. I don't hold a stock more than two weeks.

Mach, are you pulling a Soros and betting on Americas collapse?

Disagree with you on the two-weeks theory, mach. If you're putting your cash in a company, it needs to be a company you trust over the long-haul. (I have to admit, I completely whiffed on a couple in the last few months, and was only lucky enough to break even. Damn you WSTL for not getting your HomeCloud working like you promised!)

If I had money to bet...I mean invest, you are damn right I would bet on an American collapse.

With the leadership we now have...it is almost a lock. Neither side has a GD clue the damage they are causing the republic by increasing the size of the Federal government. Both sides should be tried for treason.
