Game Over (Game On?) for Financial Markets?

Voting right now. Dead heat. Mostly republicans voting no. :mad:

Wow. The bailout isn’t going to pass the house?

Holy shit. The dow is down 550.

Fail. Bailout didn’t pass.

Thanks for 1929 round 2 you fucking conservative assholes. Here comes a 4 digit dow.

So the dow hit 10,4XX as they were tallying the votes, but it’s coming back now.

Dead cat bounce? Will it close below 10,000?

not cool.

I’m watching money hemorrhaging from my portfolio. Fun, except not.

:frowning:

exactly what I was going to write… took a look at my stock and wasn’t thrilled, then my 401K and this is going to cause me to drink tonight.

Black Monday drinks meet?

Fucking stupid americans pressuring their congressmen to vote against this

aye.
They almost had it passed on the voice vote when there wasnt personal accountability then some asshole from georgia called for a detailed one.

Did they close the market?

[BRIEFING.COM] The current Emergency Economic Stabilization Act vote tally comes at 207 for the plan, 226 against, with one vote remaining. A total of 218 votes were needed to pass the vote. House members can still change their vote, and as a result the number of yes votes did tick a few points higher.

Democrats voted 141 for, 94 against. Republicans voted 66 for, 132 against.

All three of the major indices hit multi-year lows. At session lows, the Dow, Nasdaq and S&P 500 were down 6.3%, 6.7% and 7.2%, respectively. The major indices currently post massive losses, although they have recovered quite a bit from the knee jerk reaction decline.
