[08:55] {Threei} market reaction on "good" job numbers seems especially ironic in light of this:

[09:01] {strider} gap up day......not good, dino.
[09:01] {nemo} ;)
[09:01] {dino} yeah
[09:02] {strider} Vad, you think a really big capitulation day would be enough to find a bottom?
[09:03] {nemo} this isn't a true gap up day though, the pre market and aftermarket from yesterday were real close, then the fake job news...more of a flat day
[09:03] {Threei} sorry, I don't know how to answer that... too many hypoteticals
[09:03] {Threei} maybe we already found it?
[09:03] {strider} k
[09:03] {Threei} bottoms can be formed in many ways
[09:03] {Threei} capitulation is one of them
[09:04] {dino} wear you out
[09:04] {strider} I'm just hearing lots of news about investors pulling back out of market....lots of pessimism.
[09:04] {Threei} well... abundance of bad news - isn't it a traditional backdrop for market reversal?
[09:04] {Threei} this is how masses get duped
[09:05] {Threei} everything and everyone says "this is it, world ends tomorrow",
[09:05] {strider} yep
[09:05] {Threei} and market rallies for the next 14 month
[09:05] {nemo} I don't...2012
[09:05] {Threei} starting March 2009 {G}
[09:06] {Threei} just think of everything that we were told during those 14 months
[09:06] {Threei} fake rally
[09:06] {Threei} economy is off a cliff
[09:06] {Threei} reversal is immionent
[09:06] {Threei} don't get lured into longs
[09:06] {Threei} sell everything
[09:06] {Threei} short everything
[09:07] {Threei} imagine what would happen to your portfolio should you go with that
[09:07] {Threei} total and unavoidable destruction
[09:07] {Threei} oh and btw,
[09:08] {Threei} do you know what those who stubbornly shirted the hell out of market over those 14 months said and continue saying to rationalize their demise?
[09:08] {Threei} what's their magic word?
[09:08] {strider} market is wrong.

[14:39] {Threei} boredome trade
[14:41] {i2r} I know it's a delayed additional comment on voters switching to republicans, but in my mind that's the whole issue: instead of uniting in a thought process and being intentionally involved in supporting the plan that the president has, we, the people, indulge in wanting the cake and eat it too. What happened to supporting him by taking on action, setting up organizations or joining relevant
[14:41] {i2r} organizations that are already involved in those actions that are fulfilling on the goals that he has set out in his plan? We, the people, seem to want "them", whoever them is, to take care of everything so that our lives are better. But we ourselves often don't do much in supporting it and contributing to it.
[14:42] {nemo} bored, huh?
[14:43] {Threei} but a lot of we the people do not agree with his course of action
[14:43] {Threei} so they don't want to support his plan
[14:44] {Threei} if you look at polls on (almost) all major issues, you'll find him on the opposite side of public opinion,
