Keith, Why do you not date your stories? Not doing so makes it very difficult to tell when and what you are talking about.

[...] But whether this is a kind of “dead-cat” bounce – with more bloodletting to come – or is the start of a sustained rally that signals a turnabout in the U.S. economy – is just too early too early to call. [...]

True the conservative idiots who have proven in the past that tax reduction is economy expanding are wrong again (ha) after all everyone knows that trickle down economics didn’t work, or guess what it actually did work. Maybe we should listen to both sides and then take what they say and for once each person should actually investigate each side and see the truth, that the more money you put into the hands of americans who make decisions to buy, spend, or actually see a chance to start a business and hire other spenders is the only way to create confidence and inspire people to the american dream. How many of our brothers and sisters on welfare are creating jobs and putting new money into the economy? The socialist way has never done anything but “share the wealth” and destroy the desire to achieve with no reward in the end. Yes greed does feed and clothe and inspire us all to a better life. We all want the american dream, but BO wants to give hard earned and risk takers dreams and give them to others who seem to feel he is right that others should work hard to give them thier god given right to share thier hard labor. I am venting on a subject that only needs all people to learn for themselves, who is on the right track, history is a click of a mouse, just learn our most industrious times and why they were just that. “”"LEARN”"”

Another “American” idiot – you should be ashamed to call yourself one, but like a true liberal, you have no shame.

So, let me get this straight: It’s the ubiquitous “conservative commentators” ALL telling us BO’s brilliant “stimulus” plan isn’t going to work that’s sending the stock market in a (mostly) downward spiral, and the economy down the drain … not The Chosen One’s socialist policies themselves, right?

And if all of those “conservative” news guys – you know, the ones on CNN, NBC, writing for the NY Times – yeah, those conservatives – would just shut up, everything would be rosy, right?

It’s those evil Republican, unamerican (you would fail to capitalize that word, wouldn’t you; I love the poetic irony) folks who want their tax cuts who would wreck this economy, right genius? Because, as we all know, socialism has been such a BIG success wherever it’s been tried, whereas tax cuts NEVER stimulate the economy, right?

You and 65 million other idiots who put this guy in office – that’s why this country’s headed right down the tubes.

To the “American”…get a grip. Mr. Fitz-Gerald no mores controls the media than he controls the republican or democratic parties. In fact, he has been intensely critical of both through this whole crisis noting a combination of factors dating back years and transcending both parties through a litany of regulatory changes and a lack of scrutiny. The same goes for the media.

As for China, do you really truly think for a minute that this country could survive without them buying trillions of dollars of our debt that we need for the stimulus to work? If China (and South Korea and Japan) stop buying our debt, the game is over. What are you gonna do? Ask the Europeans to buy it? Their economies are in worse shape than ours. Or perhaps you’re one of those who thing devaluing the dollar is a good idea. Visit Zimbabwe some time. Maybe you can be a trillionaire too. And, while you’re at it, check your history books. The strongest nations over time are those that work with their trading partners, not shut them out. We need a stronger dollar and the way to that – whether you like it or not – is to invest in those who invest in us both individually and politically.

So if counting out the biggest supporters of our bailout (the Chinese) is unpatriotic, count me in. I’m plenty happy to invest there in addition to my American holdings knowing full well that a stronger China means a stronger American recovery.

He said it well. Sentiment must be up AND facts must be up. Only sentiment for now, facts are WAY down. Yes, every thing is fine now, you all just jump in! :)

“American” in his comments must have at least “one ear shut” at times regarding the commentators. Most have railed about the negative comments about the economy from Obama and his team that many felt helped push down US-Equity-Market sentiments.

Their concerned comments about the limited stimulus content (less than 30%) of the STIMULUS BILL vary to the degree of the politics of the commentator. EVEN the liberal-oriented economists I have heard generally talk about “at least half” the BILL being “very stimulative, but we need…another stimulus bill”, which is telling!

Keith and company are entirely ethical and proper in giving us their investment opinions based the combinations of current facts, economic trends, economic science, calculations, and of course their knowledge and experience with markets. The US market does not deserve to be carried upward solely by “economically socialistic” thinking!

Obama’s teams’ apparent widespread verbal war against business in this country likely has had a hundred times more negative effect on investors than his recent solitary sentence about now being a good time to buy stocks.

If what you said is true “For a true rebound to take place, two things have to change. The first is sentiment. And the second is business conditions. When it comes to igniting a truly sustainable rally, history demonstrates time and again that those two catalysts go hand in hand” then answer this.

How can sentiment change when we have a 24/7 news cycle filled with mostly conservative commentators who are looking out for their best interest, i.e. making sure the governments bailout does not stimulate the economy because that would mean that the stimulus and government action is working. That way they can get the republicans back in power so they can enjoy their tax cuts and no regulations??

So if you bet against America and promote investment in CHINA who is the socialist and who is unpatriotic and unamerican.
